I went up the Space Needle when I was in Seattle and got a little freaked out partway up. Did manage to walk around and look, but I was careful not to get too close to the edge.

Later, I was telling someone about it and they asked me why I didn't just get out partway up ... I had to explain that there's the top and the ground and not really anything in between.

How many Space Needle-ish things are there? Besides the Space Needle and the CN Tower, there's one in Las Vegas. But a while back I had heard there were four such structures (technically they're not buildings) throughout the world.

urg. I've had this sore throat/coughing up stuff/ hacking cough/ chest congestion (??) (it feels tight) for over 2 weeks now. It's not going away, but it's not bad enough to stay home or call the doctor or whatever. It's very annoying. I want it to go away OR manifest into a full out sick thing and then go away. The range of the ookiness varies as well, from day to day and throughout the day.

That almost sounds like walking pnuemonia. Not to worry you unduly.

ah, crap.

t calling dr now

My company just leased space on the 52nd floor of our building. (I'm on the 3rd floor). I should go and take pictures.

Cereal: Nora, what color is your phlegm?

phlem talk! it's been pretty light yellow colored but over the past day or so it's gone green . Edit- but as with everything else, it is not consistant at all.

Nora: Doctor. Now.

Nora, definitely go see your doctor. That's not good.

cereal- Have an appt. with the doctor tomorrow morning.
