Hummingwolf Tonight

Now wearing: Long, lightweight, pale turquoise-ish button-down nightgown and boring underwear.

Now hearing: Siouxsie & the Banshees. "The Killing Jar" has been running through my head for days, so I gave in to the inevitable and pulled out my copy of Peepshow.

Now smelling: Mostly my body odor, not entirely offensive.

Now tasting: Vomit, which does offend me. I was checking up on a housemate a while ago, making sure they were still here and hadn't left the house while the door was open (again). Was asked, "Are you all right?" and suddenly realized the answer was a big, fat NO. Well, that explains why it was so hard to get to sleep.

Now feeling: Sick, which must come as a surprise to anyone who read the preceding paragraph. No, I haven't been to Mexico recently--not since the 1970s.

Now annoyed by: The bathroom sink on this floor isn't draining. If I'm gonna be sick, I really don't want to worry about how far I'll have to walk to wash my hands afterwards.

Beverage of the moment: Plain water in carefully small sips, thanks. I wish it were cold.

Miles walked today... erm, yesterday: Just a little heart.

Last meal eaten: Multigrain toast with Monterey jack cheese, avocado & hummus, with dried cherries for dessert. There would have been something green and leafy as well, but I didn't go to the right store for that (was hoping to go today). I do hope that hummus isn't what's making me oogie tonight. It isn't the best hummus ever, but it is tasty.

Last TV show watched: Monday night's House, M.D.

Next TV show to be watched: Most of the big networks will be showing a presidential news conference tonight, but FOX will have its regularly-scheduled episode of Lie to Me. Are they fair and balanced? Of course not! But I'm more likely to watch Tim Roth tonight and read the important Obama bits some other time.

Suddenly I want: Dark chocolate. It's probably not a good idea to indulge right now, alas.

Last book finished: Octavia E. Butler, Wild Seed.

Now reading: Robin Wall Kimmerer, Gathering Moss: A Natural and Cultural History of Mosses.

News story of the moment: Forget the flu and read about glowing cloned dogs. Giving them all the same name doesn't seem fair somehow.

Oh, the story about medical conflicts of interest is probably important too, but it doesn't have any puppies.

Snail mail of the day: The Social Security Administration finally got around to informing me that I'd be getting my economic stimulus payment next month. I already knew that I should be getting it, but it's reassuring to know that they know it too.

Latest LJ interest: changing ‮directions, further evidence that I am easily amused.

Well, I wasn't feeling too bad when I was out walking yesterday. A little tired, sure, but not actively ill. Only started feeling sick to my stomach after midnight.

Am pretty sure I'm not fluish, so I'll just take it easy today and hope nothing upsets my tummy again. I would like to go get leafy green veggies today, though!

::hugs:: Feel better soon.

Swine flu just sounds so... ugly. Wouldn't patients be happier with "fuzzy puppy flu" or "100% happi flu"

Sure it might not keep people from dying, but they would sure die a lot happier.

You're sick too?! Aw! Get well soon... sooner than I'm getting well anyway. *cough hack wheeze*

Your latest interest is amusing. I think I will not try it, lest it further hurt my head.

You feel better soon too, please! My tummy's not overly happy with me even yet, but so far I've managed to keep a couple small meals down and I don't feel feverish. Yay!

My latest interest is nicely confusing, but I don't want to hurt anybody's head. I hope your head decides to be nicer to you.

Thank you - I think my head is indeed feeling better. Now my lungs need to catch up!

Yay for no fever! Hope you stay that way!
