Nice and Warm

I have the flue, the doctor has confirmed my suspicions.

I am staying in bed for a few days now... I am nauseaus, headache, sore throat etc...
Ugg, the screen is making me feel dizzy.

Oh.. and Harry, I have lost another one and one half kilograms and I did not exercise every day this week. I have also changed my eating patterns too. No fizzy drinks at all, no crisps and chocalates inbetween meals. Inbetween meals whenever I feel hungry I drink a long tall glass of water. And for lunch, whatever Sandra has placed in my lunch box...

Right now, Sandra is watching Planet of the Apes with Charlton Heston. I can hear the court room scenes happening now....

I am going to crawl back into bed.

We do have Barocca here. But I don't buy it. I do buy Cal-C-Vita though, I finished off the tube this morning.

.. It's in words that the magic is -- Abracadabra, Open Sesame, and the rest -- but the magic words in one story aren't magical in the next. The real magic is to understand which words work, and when, and for what; the trick is to learn the trick. ... And those words are made from the letters of our alphabet: a couple-dozen squiggles we can draw with the pen. This is the key! And the treasure, too, if we can only get our hands on it! It's as if - as if the key to the treasure is the treasure! ------- John Barth, Chimera
