I've been flattened.

After not getting sick for I don't remember how long, I was flattened by the mother of all colds this week.  Came on stealthily Saturday night, was confirmed but manageable Sunday morning.  By Sunday evening, however, I was toast.  I've spent most of three days on the sofa with a short break to meet lethlogica for coffee.  (Thanks again for the latte and company, lethlogica! I so needed to get out.)  Today I managed to run some errands, incl. picking up a sweater for the show I'm costuming.  (Psst, jenboo, if you're reading this, I'll have it for you on Monday night.) I also got kitty litter and went to the grocery store.  Result: I'm once more exhausted.  Bah. And I still need to try and find an old Kenya bag.  Remember those from the 80s?  I've seen a few at thrift stores, but sadly not today.  I'll try again tomorrow if I have the energy.  If not, the weekend will have to do.

The good news is that I completed by cover art form and sent it in today.  Gathering pics of guys who fit the types of the MCs is about all my brain can handle this week.

Being sick is Le Suck, right?

If you need someone to run errands, give me a shout. I can either pick up a list, or drive you around if you reallyreally need to get out of those walls. (My car is driven so infrequently, the dang thing will be giddy at getting to go somewhere.)

I have not yet gotten sick, other than the sciatica. Then again, I've been popping those herbal horsepills every day and night to prevent getting sick. I think it's working...(knock on wood)

Good luck on staying healthy. That's one of the biggest benefits to telecommuting, IMO - no office germs.

Thanks for the offer of errand running, but I'm doing a lot better today. Still stuffed up like a plush toy, but much more energized. My goal today is simply not to over do it. I think I can manage that. :) I'm not planning on going anywhere today if I can help it.

Thanks. I'm feeling heaps better today and I plan to take it easy. Not flat out on the sofa easy like the rest of this week has been, but chilling at home easy. :)
