After a while,   I looked down at my feet, and realized they were blue.<\/p>\n<p>I was confused, as we just got a new blue rug, and it could very well have been blue ink. Indeed, it was not.

At this point, I&#8217;d also take heartburn and sleeplessness. I&#8217;m hoping to dodge the stretch marks, though.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I sat down to work this morning, at the swivel desk chair I have at the dining room table.
