mikailborg: I can't even remember what event I was attending, but I must have been taking it seriously. (cartoon)

Uncomfortably numb

I was right to be worried yesterday. I had a slightly rough day at work - nothing that wasn't handled by the end of the day, but it was a little draining. As I headed home, I felt worse and worse despite efforts to center and clear my head, and by the end of dinner, I needed to lie down for a bit. The bit lasted the rest of the night, as it turned out I had a fever, sore throat, and nausea.

Feeling a little better this morning; I think I kicked it. Didn't help that it was a chilly morn in Norfolk today: the car heater has been turned on for the first time this fall. We have separate thermostats for hot and cold air, so I think we'll be planning to re-balance them soon.

I did miss the Enterprise premiere Friday, we had other things to do and I'm not going to let TV programming run my life. I suppose the people at UPN assume that their target audience all have TiVos. :)

What? You don't have TiVo (or Replay)? What kind of a geek are you??? :) Once you've recovered from moving costs, take some of those mad WARS dollars and put 'em into a DVR! You'll never go back! :)

(okay, geek rant done)

*sob* I know, I'm losing geek cred by admitting this *sniff*

A DVR has been on our RealSoonNow list for a while. It's been displaced for the moment by a washer/dryer set, but we usually try to be nice to ourselves come the holidays :)

That's okay. Given all of your other geeky tendencies (including a wonderfully geeky job), you have cred to spare. Just don't let it become a habit. :)
