Thanks for the recovery wishes, all!
I'm mostly sleeping, drinking hot drinks, and whining about having to cancel a barbeque tonight and a visit to an old friend on Tuesday. Apparently I don't mind a week off my dissertation, though. Heh.
Keep having the strangest dreams, while dozing, about people accusing me of infecting them with swine flu. Freaky. And The Girl's mother has suggested that I should have been wearing a mask around London, so it's sort of my own fault. This is quite funny, as it's just flu (and if I'd gone around in a mask, I might have got arrested as a suspected terrorist...)
Just read up on the Whole Foods debate. Very interesting. I don't think we have a whole food store chain of comparable size here, but I have a feeling that my local, much-loved whole food shop (where I can get wheat-free cake and other lovely things) would espouse similar ideas if it thought anyone was listening. I still like wheat-free cake. I'd be boycotting Whole Foods if I were in the US, though. People are entirely responsible for their own state of health? What with having a genetic disorder, I'm inclined to disagree a bit...
I am considering changing my tag to "It tastes like Shaquille O'Neal's tears."
I'm awake. I even did dishes! Now I'm hungry, and not sure what to eat.
Hello, world.
Thank you for your ~ma - today, it started coming true. I passed my statistics final, got an interview in the HUJI School of History (I honestly pretty much gave that up a while ago. I thought my grades are too low for this. Someone must have say something about me), and, well, a bunch of other stuff happened. But since I was up 35 hours in a row (test season, I heart you), it was a little bit of a problem to say what happened when. Most of these news came after I was trying to sleep after the 35 hours of mostly awakeness and paper writing.
Can't go back to sleep now.
You guys rock.
So's the new Soulsavers album.
And I need a job.
Seska, health~ma.
Oh gracious {{{Seska}}}} much health~ma to you.
So. We're broke and needed some attractive storage for Emeline's playroom shelves. My brilliant, though not original, solution? Cover copypaper boxes with fabric and ribbon I already had! I just finished the first one and, I have to say, it's pretty damn rockin'.
Oh Seska, blergh.
My cousin in London had swine flu a few weeks ago - she said the worst of it only lasted a few days, and after a week she was back to fighting fit. So, you know, not good, but at least it's not a lingerer?

This is what I hear. It has spread like wildfire here, but people are saying it's less awful than most strains of flu.
We bought masses of BBQ food for the little party we were planning for this evening, and now The Girl is having to cook it all just to put it in the freezer so we can have it another time. Chicken and halloumi skewers, anyone?
