I've been fighting an ear infection for a week now, possibly longer. I'm out of antibiotic, I'm tired as hell, I need my drops, but I went to class anyway. Why? Because I have been out of class since Thursday afternoon. And my Good Student conscience won't let me play hooky anymore.
You know those times when you wonder why you didn't just run away during Spring Break? Yeah. This is one of those times.
So now I'm playing catch-up: trying to stay on top of rehearsal things and classes that I am frighteningly behind in, turn in all the make-up work I've got floating about, get together all the work that's due this week that I haven't even started on. Here is the problem: I don't really care about the Medieval view of women or whether or not Mark Twain hated God. I don't care about naked boys or costume issues. I don't care about New York Director seeing me perform. Right now, I just care about my ears and when they're going to start feeling better and whether or not I'm going to need to learn Sign Language really soon. And that's a very scary thing for me.
...I also care about whether or not Grab and Go has any of those Vegan teriyaki bowls left.

You need to go to your health service and get some drugs; not just anti-biotics (if your previous course of treatment has been taken and you still aren't better), but some friggin' pain relievers. You need to do this. Kimb's sister wears a hearing aid because she didn't get adequately treated fifteen years ago.
As for Mark Twain, no he didn't hate God, but he wasn't that fond of the xtian portrait of the old geezer in the sky from the OT. That god is a problem for anyone who has read the book yet thinks people are okay. And the medieaval view of women I point out is significantly colored by the reality that goddess worship underlies all european xtianty. Particularly in merry old england ("mary", the xtian version of the mother goddess). So people in the those years loved the female principle more than we do now, but the church imposed that sexual identity thing on women/ whore-madonna, and of course, it being unnatural, we ended up with the puritans and victorian england.
I hope you get better.
