here comes vacation

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 2017.08.03

We're going on vacation and my fourth sinus infection of the year just keeps getting worse. It's always something! But, it's the vacation - the only one I'll take this year - that we'll remember, not that ol' dad was his usual run-down self.

Three reasons to be thankful:

  1. It's not like I'm in a hospital.

  2. It's not a once-in-a-lifetime trip, just a jaunt up to cottage country.

  3. If I get worse, I won't even need travel insurance.

The way you write science fiction is: you sit down at your writing machine and you open your mind to the first thought that comes through. My first thought was always a cigarette.
