~Rather interesting date.

I have been told repeatedly by my parents that this day five years ago was when I first regained consciousness after my coma. Life support was pulled on the 12th. I just thought I would share that bit of information.

To anyone keeping track, this marks five years and eight days since I last died.

I started to write this post hoping that I would come up with some humours take on the whole thing. I guess I am sorry that you are stuck with me a bit longer?

So, my ending will simply be enjoyment of my fourth cup of coffee, cuddling with one of my six animals, and continued pensive waiting for my wife to come home from work. All the while, I will continue muscle training and walking practice.

I did a phone interview for Tell the Bartender PodCast. The release for the PodCast is soon, but I will post a reminder for that when it comes to the date in a week.

An interesting development…

I was told three years ago that I got Viral Meningoencephalitis. The very confusing part to me was the meningitis part: I was vaccinated by meningitis back in high school.

The stupid thing I did was forget the “Viral” part.

Vaccines don’t do anything to viruses. Though, in theory, my system was better equipped for the ensuing onslaught, there was no protecting me from a virus. This also means that what I was afflicted with was not lifestyle but exposure.

I am well aware how silly all this must sound to some of you. I can almost hear the chorus of “no shit..” coming from the masses. This was something never properly explained to me and, therefore, I was very confused.

So, what does this mean?

I HAVE NO IDEA!

It does, however, give me a bit of peace, in a strange way.
