Went to bed too early - up doing what I really enjoy - watching movies in the middle of the night. Just finished one called 'Walk on Water' - I recommend it - excellent story about an Israeli coming to terms with the past as he befriends the adult German grandchildren of the Nazi he is supposed to kill. A surprisingly sensitive movie.

Almost tired enough to sleep again. Taking Sinemet to avoid the dreaded dystonia. Went to a birthday party tonight and took a walk with another ex-teacher with MS. We both actually considered that being sick might be easier than teaching in a public school these days. It's the ridiculous administrative and regulatory decisions that take all the fun out of the job.

Of course we didn't really mean we liked being sick.

No more typing or I'll enter the land of the dystonia and have to stretch in all kinds of weird positions, many of them upside down, to get out of it.
