Kokubunji, 2023.01.14

Today I had to go to the clinic to get repeats on my migraine meds and the sleeping pills I some to need to get through the night. I'd taken about six weeks of migraine meds in two weeks while in Miyazaki. It's occurred to me that this might be because I didn't have my vitamin B and other daily supplements. In any case, I've now made it a week without taking any of the strong stuff (I had to cheat and take a Tylenol #1 on Thursday).

That done, I headed to Shinjuku to have my camera looked at. This was my follow-up on the terrible outcome where I lost the photo of The Girl catching her first fish last week while a whale breached in the background. It took me an hour at the store but I've managed to get them to send the camera away for a month to be looked at.

I feel fortunate that I enjoyed the blandishments of modernity. I had hip replacement and root canal. I was able to travel on airplanes. I was able to take cheap food for granted. I went to the movies. I enjoyed rock 'n' roll. And now I'm ready to move on.
