Hi there. You might have noticed that I've been MIA for a couple days. Or maybe you didn't. Whatever. Anyhow, I'm sick. SICK. Curling up in a ball, shaking with fever, coughing my lungs out kind of sick. Oh yeah. Good times. Yet I still worked at Hallmark on Saturday for 9 hours without a break. I even managed to fight off passing out from my fever several times. Go me. =/

I called in sick to the day job yesterday and dragged myself to the doctor, who told me there wasn't anything she could really do. She was nice enough to give me some Robitussin with Codeine so I could try to get some sleep. It helped a little. I only woke up every 3 hours last night, instead of every hour.

I still feel pretty crappy and I still have a light fever, but I'm at work anyways. And I'll be at Hallmark tonight. And I'm determined to show up at Applebees for karaoke tonight, even if it's only for a little while. It's not like I can sing anyways since my voice is pretty much shot.

Since I had to go out yesterday, I gave in to my ingrained desire to own things and used my 40% off DVD box sets at Borders coupon to buy Doctor Who series 1. What can I say? I'm weak.

Anyhow. That's what's up with me right now. How are you guys?

I have to keep my desire to own things toned down. I hate that. I need Doctor Who. I did finally watch the first epi of this series...and series 4 starts in April!!! I need my 10 fix.

I'm a little worried about series 4. It sounds like it might be a huge hot mess. But maybe that'll be okay too.

Lots of companions in the first epi I've heard. Blech! Maybe Martha can kick Rose's butt. That would bring me joy.

I'm pretty sure the convergence of companions is happening at the end of the series. Like the last four episodes. Episode 1 is going to reintroduce Donna and get her hooked up with The Doctor. Martha shows up somewhere in the middle, I do believe.

I think I can deal with Donna and Martha...it's Rose Tyler that irks me to no end. She suited 9...she needs to get away from 10...I'm willing to sacrifice her to the OOD.

I don't know. I don't mind Rose, I guess. I just don't necessarily want to see her back. But I'm glad Martha doesn't have to put up with Emo!Ten anymore either. Hopefully Donna puts him in his place.

I hadn't heard that it was in the first ep... I thought it would be in a later one. *shrug* Not that it matters... I'll watch anyway.

PS: Leigh, the Barrowman "False Advertising" icon=hysterical! :D Hope you feel better!

thanks =) It was the first thing I thought of when I saw that photo.

I'm really really dizzy today. Maybe that's not so bad. It makes the work day a little easier to handle when you're floating through it. ;)

**hugs** Hope you're feeling better soon. There's a nasty bug making its way around everywhere.

BTW, they're coming out with a Dr. Who comic book based on the new doctor. It looks pretty kick ass! :)

I've been sick for two months now. It sucks. Every time I start to feel better, I catch something else. =/

Yep. I'm not really a comic book person, but it still looks cool.

...Had I only read further, I would have seen that you're only partially better. I'm still glad to hear you're improved at all, really, since there is all sorts of yuck going around these days. Take care, and we can start talking about next week when you feel closer to 100%, okay?

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

I finally have my schedule for March, so I have a better idea of when I'm free next week. =)

I certainly hope you called out to Hallmark! Fuck 'em. You're sick. It's one thing to bang out for bullshit, but when you are sick? They have to deal with it.

Feel better soon!

Yeah, that's not really going to happen. There's only one other person who works nights and she's sick too. So I was indeed at Hallmark tonight and I'll be there tomorrow too. =/
