chicken pox

wow, i have poor communication skills. i mean, i've basically been home now for 6 and a half days straight and have been more out of touch with friends [and blog] near and far than ever before.

a recap of my life is that i started work last week- monday and tuesday were orientation, then i had one day at my worksite on wednesday, at which point (at the end of the day on wednesday) i started having a reaction to the chicken pox shot which i got two weeks earlier, having never actually experienced the chicken pox virus. since wednesday, i've been home with this reaction (consisting of about 20-25 "pox") because they wouldn't let me go to work because i could theoretically transmit my version of the virus to the immune-compromised cancer patients.

anyway, i've thus had lots of free time,but for some reason haven't posted.

going to do some errands now, but i'll be back later. i promise.

in the meantime....i think this brief about american over-influence in efforst against the disengagement of the gaza strip is interesting...
