Welcome to episode four of The Sick Girl Missives! This week, the Jillians contemplate the nature of fog, what it means to want things, and maybe even what it means to have them. Key discussion points: spoon burglars, the duality of bad news, and a birthday song. Music is a shortened version of the song "Ocean" by Mesmerists (accessed via the Free Music Archive). Below are some links expanding on "Spoon Theory" and living with chronic conditions.
