home from work again still...

I've been home all this week, except Monday.  Completely brainless.  This really pretty much sucks.  It doesn't completely suck, I suppose, because we did get to go out to dinner and have...  um... a really good meal.  Well.  It's amazing how drunk one can get on two drinks when one is under the weather. 

And what is it with people who can take cold medicine when they're sick and then write amazing things?  All I want to do is sleep.  Or veg.  Of course I do have a thing against taking cold medicine.  I just... don't.  Before I went to bed last night I spritzed Choliriseptic into my throat, took cough medicine and antihistimines.  And rinsed with Listerine.  But for some reason Dayquil is something I fear.  And don't have any of.

Have you ever looked at Classmates.com?  That is the most useless site ever. 

Classmates.com: "new member! [Names sexyest hottest dykyest girl in my class who I of course had a crush on from afar].  Send a message to her!
Me: "Duuuhhhh, okay, what the hell, I'm drunk, feeling bold. 
Me: *composes message*
Me: *posts message*
Classmates.com: Ha ha! You have to pay $5 to send this message!
Me: Fuck off.

So that's my day, pretty much.  Though I got a cool book, too: "Raj: The Making and Unmaking of British India," by Lawrence James.  The flyleaf says: "...much that is new, hidden and controversial, on areas as varied as the Mutiny, the Great Game and the taxing of India."  *blinks*  I always thought Kipling pretty much invented all that Great Game stuff.

Classmates dot com really does suck in that most horrifically sucky way. I had a similar experience (not with the sexy dykey crush, but with wanting to do something other than the uber-basic stuff and getting the "oh, you've got to PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!" message). WTF do they think they are, an exclusive dating site?

Who was the crush-girl? I can think of a few girls I had crushes on from afar (and was so far in the closet at the time that even I wasn't fully ayware I was crushing on them).

Oh, gosh! I blush to admit it, because I actually knew very little about her. Kathy Ryan.
