Sore throat, drainage, aches, and chills. Today is a day off to rest and recuperate from this mysterious illness that has plagued me. The remedy: antibiotics in the form of a z-pack (seemingly the cure to any ailment), and cups of green tea loaded with antioxidants to destroy these free-radicals. While I'm just laying around all day, I've decided to use this new found free time to start a new book. The past two years or so I've really only read biographies or novels set in the 1920s, so I've decided to go with something more current. The Road by Cormac McCarthy, which I've heard good things about, hopefully I won't be disappointed. This wouldn't be a post by me if I didn't make any music recommendations for such a day, and today I have three albums to add to my day-off soundtrack. The Eraser by Thom Yorke, and Boxer by The National are two mellow albums perfect for a lazy day. And When This Is Over by Shad, one of my favorite hip-hop albums with intelligent and socially conscious lyrics, and clean hooks and beats that make any day awesome. Hopefully all of these elements combined will aid me to a speedy recovery...I just hope I don't have mono...
