Book 8

8) "Sense and Sensibility" - Jane Austen. Do I even need to say that I really enjoyed it? I don't know if I'd have been able to keep up the momentum to read it all if I hadn't been sick this weekend, because it's ridiculously long, but yeah... Made me think that I need to keep my mouth more shut and my ears more open. The main char avoids manipulating, but she plays her cards so close to her chest that she's able to collect all the info and ride everything out. Social surfing.

yes, I did

Those of you cleverly noting the time stamp on my previous entry have probably already figured out that I called in sick. I went to physical therapy, but she went easy on me because she could tell how uncomfortable I was. Still have the slightly high temp (not sure what my usual temp is, but am thinking it runs somewhere below normal). Now back to watching House...

tea and dancing fixes everything?

My fingers went numb-tingly, so I danced around the kitchen for a while, trying to get my circulation going (because my face and body were roastingly hot, but my hands were like ice), and Eor gave me tea with lots of honey, and it went away.

Possibly a lack of sugar, since I don't normally eat so little for such a long time as I have been the past three days.

ETA: 9:33PM - I ate soon after I initially wrote the above, and they numbness never came back. I initially made the post private so I could wait and see how it was going to turn out. Didn't want to unnecessarily worry anyone.

You Are Cilantro

The bad news is that there are some people who can't stand you. The good news is that most people love you more than anything else in the world. You are distinct, unusual, fresh, and very controversial. And you wouldn't have it any other way.

What Spice Are You?

Awe, littleredhead won't like me.... ;)

Well, "House" all gone. We've et up all the first season. We definitely got hooked! It developed a lot during that season, got a lot less CSI - they toned down the squick factor and the graphics a lot. I still think the characterization is a little heavy-handed (I'm just not a big believer in clear-cut and easily understood first causes for people's emotional problems) and uneven (quite often stuff seems to be invented just to fit the show, and the personality of the character does not seem consistent from show to show - particularly for Foreman, but for Chase as well) but the actors are doing a good job.

But all in all... damn. It's good!

I am feeling betterish, tonight. I think I'll go to work tomorrow because I need to get the hell out of my house.
