No Photos

Last week I endured a very badly cracked cell-phone screen. A replacement was sent via “insurance” and they sent out a refurbished phone that had a glitchy screen. Finally, today, Monday, I have a 2nd refurbished phone and so far, so good. 

All this phone switching means that in addition to re-organizing my contacts and resetting social apps, etc on my phone, I also lost and had no reason to store photos from the last week. I barely use my laptop so my cell-phone really is the root to my technology-driven life. 

To wrap up the last week in brief, I got some kind of stomach flu or food poisoning on Wednesday night, fought through work Thursday and stayed home to rest Friday. Friday night I still felt very messed up, but had plans to crash at my friends place in Newport so we could surf quality waves on Saturday morning. After surfing for a few hours Saturday morning I went back to Redondo Beach and my plans to sail in the afternoon were flaked on, so my backup plans to hang out on the beach surfaced. I tried to eat solid food for the first time since Thursday, but couldn’t. I was able to drink beers though, what a lifesaver those are. Then Saturday night I went to a 1920’s “Great Gatsby” style birthday party at Mike Tyson’s old house in the Hollywood Hills. Stomach and body very unsettled for the 3rd day now, I went home and slept until about 2pm Sunday afternoon. I rested more, really scared myself that I had a worm living inside me, and then tried to workout which I had to give up on after about 45 minutes. Now it’s Monday and I’m feeling mostly back to normal, maybe the worm is taking a break.
