Like that moment when I’m in my fourth day of jet lag and I feel my astral body catch up with my physical one, I felt the last drop of Covid finally exit yesterday. Yes, there are still echoes of the cough and I wouldn’t be shocked if yesterday’s bit of fever came back, but it is the first time in 12 days that I feel wholly myself. And not a minute too soon, with my flight to Salzburg leaving at 4:20 today. 

 

And so I’ll sing all of the above while I can and particularly celebrate the line in Nina’s song:

 

It’s a new dawn,

It’s a new day,

It’s a new life for me,

And I’m feelin’ good.
