has slept pretty much ALL DAY. Still groggy. Didn’t go for a run. Ate ice cream at lunch because I was miserable. May do the same tomorrow.
referred to an old lady in an email today as the “Dwight Shrute of the Knitters Guild.” I myself, of course, am the Jim.
has an official diagnosis of “a viral illness” and a doctor’s order to go back to bed. At least I’m catching up on some sleep.
Sick. I’ve slept pretty much all day long. I’m still groggy. My lymph nodes are all swollen and painful. No idea if it’s just from the cold sore, or whether I’m fighting off something else and the cold sore is just a consequence of my weakened immune system. Going to see the doctor tomorrow morning.
is drooling over the smells coming from the slow cooker. Split pea and ham soup, only a few hours to go.
@crumpet I have $39 Optus, but IIRC it’s gone now. So far 500MB data is PLENTY. I use maybe 200MB at most (since I have wifi @ home & work).
feels really, really crappy. Lymph nodes all swollen. Yes, Dr appt 1st thing tomorrow. Loading up on drugs now. 🙁

Inspired by Eileen’s site this week, I bought a ham hock and a bag of split peas last night to make crock pot split pea and ham soup today. I put it in this morning and the whole house has been filled with the most wonderful smells. A few hours I ago I was researching remedies for cold sores, when I discovered that you should avoid foods high in arginine while having an outbreak. What has loads of arginine? PEAS. So I had scrambled eggs on toast for dinner while Snookums partook of my beautiful soup. At least I know that it freezes well, and it’ll still taste good in a few days when I’m all healed up. Still, MEGA FRUSTRATION.
Faramir as Jerry Springer?? Now that’s just weird.
Crap. You know what you really DON’T NEED when your self-esteem has already taken a beating? A frickin’ cold sore. It’s early stages; I’m going nuclear with the lysine and Zovirax. (Interestingly, I only get them when my system is stressed. Am I getting sick? Was it my lack of sleep last week courtesy of the cats? Was my depression over the diet situation the cause… or just another symptom?)
is waiting for an SMS from my mother-in-law, who’s coming into the city for lunch. She’s bringing me a pudding basin for my birthday!
feels like the only USian on the Internet who hasn’t filled out a bracket or watched a game. I couldn’t even name a team in the tournament!
suddenly discovered the reason for my bad week: a shocking lack of BEER. Luckily it’s Friday, and I aim to rectify the situation.
@randomknits FAN-EFFING-TASTIC! Congratulations!
woke up with suspicious headache. Oh great. Cold sore forming. WHY? Now going to feel like a scabrous leper all week. Off to get Zovirax.
took the “How Asian Are You?” quiz. Huh. I’m a “Twinky.”

TrumpetHero. ZOMG. That should be a real accessory. And people should be watching YouTube videos of me tearing it up on Expert level RIGHT NOW.

The Rosendahl Bend. I’m kind of fascinated by knots.
