Er, hi, I guess I haven't posted in a few days. I'm still alive. Eor is quite sick - he's had this fever for five days and it seems to have settled in his throat glands so that he can barely swallow. I've laid in lots of pudding and fruit cups for him, and have been periodically doing hot compresses on his throat. And reading "Ensign Flandry" by Poul Anderson. Which is pretty decent - I mean, it IS Poul Anderson, it can't really be bad. ;)

I wrote a little at the laundromat, yesterday, and it was absolute crap, but it felt good to be doing some writing. I'm not sure what's happened to me over the past few months. I hope I can get back to it.

Tomorrow evening I have to attend a co-worker's party, and it's not the party I had hoped to be attending this week. Tuesday I have pt early, and again on Thursday. Wednesday Eor's sister in law will be showing up, with one-year-old child in tow, and she'll be here on Thursday night, too, here to help her sister move. I hope she brings a kennel, as this place is not kid-proof. The co-worker's party which I had hoped to go to should be happening on Friday, but Saturday we have to wake up stupid early to catch the bus to Boston, where we'll get the train to Florida.

(I'm really late catching up with LJ, sorry)

Argh - hope you're both feeling better soon, and my sympathies to Eor - painful throats are so bloody horrible, plus frustrating.

Look forward to reading your new writing! :-)

Thanks on the sympathies and well wishes. (and I think I'll just answer this and not the other because I'm rushed at the moment...) He's feeling somewhat better but still sneezes and gives a sort of pathetic whimper every now and then.

The new writing will probably soon be Chapter Nine of Swept Away! (which you'll find on my tags if you're interested.)

Now we're off to put the car in storage for the week while we go to Florida. And then a little sleep before an early start tomorrow.
