There is good music

that is bad for me to listen to when I am sick, or so it seems. I feel better, pull up an angry feminist song with good lyrics, and attractive beats...suddenly I am hacking and suffering and running for the bathroom. I do not like coughing so hard it makes me throw up. See how unfair this is. I have every right to listen to my music and I have reasons...a laundry list, heck on certain days, a War & Peace thick tome (plenty of footnotes) on why I have needed this music...and yet, for now, I have to abstain. How unfair is that? Ask a man with reasons to turn off his angry music for the good if his health, will he do it? What am I supposed to become, just a docile rose petal floating along gently in a stream...you know what. For the moment that doesn't sound so bad...

Recovering from illness can be a serious business.
