Thank you, Sarah, for this "On Sick Time" essay. I like this line best: "The clash between regimented artificial time and the ebb and flow of natural time create my deepest time conflicts." I was thinking the other day whether it would be possible to break the bonds of conventional time, like living two days at a time. It might be a good exercise to count the number of timers and clocks and other timekeepers we regularly engage in our lives.

What an insightful post. That sounds like a very good
book.
Hi, Louise!
That IS quite a coincidence.
I’m happy to hear my book will soon be with you. I hope you find a friend in it.
