Rain = yuck. When I was in Portland on Sunday and it was POURING, we had to sit in the car for like 15 minutes to wait out a downpour.
I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Bah. There was a bad plane crash in Brazil - at least 189 are dead. A jet skidded off the end of a wet runway and burst into flames. Many people have been concerned about this runway, as it is very short. In fact, it was closed a while back for safety reasons (due to it being too short) but a higher court overturned this, based on the economic hardship this closing resulted in.
Well, it could turn out to be more complex than that, but still....

I think they said they had two planes skid off the runway just last week. (Rain again.)

paperdol, I can't do anything about medical care, but in the interim you can relieve pain a little. Try gargling with warm salt water, drinking hot tea with lemon and honey, spraying your throat with Chloraseptic. For your ear, try using a heating pad (or something warm) on it. It won't cure anything, but you might be less uncomfortable.
And the rugby players - has Vortex seen them? she'll appreciate it. I certainly did!

Did anyone post about the rugby player who was having these eye infections and headaches? Turned out he had the tooth of another player embedded in his skull.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That almost happened to a friend of mine. Everyone was worrying over the boy with the chipped tooth, and it was a while before they realised where the chip had gone.

OK, how come my work isn't getting done while I do other things? I opened the right windows and everything.
