I haven't watched Elementary yet but I need to get it from netflix. I don't think it's streaming so I have to get it from dvd.
I had a crappy day today. I don't know what happened but around 1 pm I started feeling kind of bad, not horrible but a little bit of a headache and HOT. It's been warmer than the past few days so I just chalked it up to that.
I got to work and the first thing I did was guzzle a bottle of water and then it went down hill from there. Horrible headache, the light hurt, the sounds hurt, it was stabbing pain in my head, and it was hard for me to put coherent sentences togehter. Then I started to feel like I had to throw up (I never did just felt like it).
So I found my manager and asked to go home about 1/2 hour after I got to work and it took another half hour to find coverage and delegate some stuff to people.
I came home and started feeling better. I couldn't find my thermometer but Will came by, he bought one and I took my temp but that it was 5:00 and he was remarking about how hot I felt, but my temp was just under 99. I know it was higher.
Now I feel better, not as hot, a little bit of a headache, but I don't have the noise and the lights going on.
Plus I burst into tears at one point at work trying to leave, I didn't meant or want to but it was just so overwhelming.
askye, that sucks. I hope you feel better quickly!
My favorites are the ones with BAMF!Watson, especially AccidentallyBAMF!Watson. Steven King did a Holmes story that hinges on Watson solving the crime when Holmes turns out to be violently allergic to cats.
I love BAMF!Watson! What's that King story? Can't believe I've never read it.
"The Doctor's Case" is a short story by American author Stephen King, originally published in The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, a 1987 centennial collection, and reprinted in his collection Nightmares & Dreamscapes. An audio-book of stories from Nightmares & Dreamscapes was read by Tim Curry.
I've got The New Adventures, which is where I first read it. There's a PDF of it online, but it's not very good quality, and I don't know its provenance.

My favorite BAMF!Watson book is this one

derring do and swashbuckling and Holmes giving Watson looks of "Did you really just do that?" Published 1980.
I must clear out bookshelves so I can put my stuff out properly.
I hope you feel better soon, askye.
My day was blah. Got to campus, went to Starbucks, realized I'd left my wallet at home. The Starbucks lady gave me free coffee, though, and said that I could pay tomorrow. Then went to a meeting, which was basically just admin stuff for the semester, and lots of stuff about how we need to crack down on cheating. Then my plan after that was to go grocery shopping, but I couldn't without my wallet, so I decided to drive home and just go to the grocery store closer to my house. But on the way home, it started pouring, and a whole lot of streets were flooded, and I nearly got stuck when I misjudged the depth of a puddle, so I decided to just stay inside. And then the storm knocked out the electricity here a few times, so I've got to reset all my clocks again, and it also knocked out the university servers for a while, so I couldn't send or receive work email all afternoon, and there were some things I really needed to do.
I also came up with an idea for having the students submit homework online that I think will work really well and save me a lot of time over the semester, but it's going to be kind of a pain to set up, so that's my weekend work.

Yikes, Typo!

That test makes me think of a kidney stone treatment Hubby had many years ago called a bilateral retrograde. Apparently it's banned by the Geneva Conventions. You can't do it to POWs, but health insurance covers it.
