desperance | Inconceivable!

I cannot actually be sick. I have been inoculated (*pauses suddenly, working out the root of the word and shuddering at the thought: in the eye? Eww!*) against everything from flu to porcuswine flu to pneumonia to yellow fever; there is nothing left to sicken me.

And yet, and yet...

I just cried off a lunch date with an old friend, abandoned my work and came home.
