Sorry. My experiment in vegetarianism was almost derailed by the sudden advent of a case of what I believe to be food poisoning. (There's no such thing as 'stomach flu', and what people call a 'stomach virus' almost inevitably turns out to be some variety of food poisoning, which is caused by bacteria rather than virii.) I didn't have very much to write while my guts were trying to decide if they had enough gumption to evacuate the premises. Right now they're still not quite stable, but thanks to the miracle of bismuth salicylate (Pepto Bismol caplets are wonderful things) they're better than they were before. My eyes still hurt, though - the sure sign that I'm fighting off an infectious disease has always been extreme pain when I try to roll my eyes all the way to the side, or all the way up or down. I'm gonna take it easy today, even though I'm at work, and I'm gonna get my textbook out early tonight to study for tomorrow's exam. I plan on taking the exam and then going straight home - this prof can be really nasty about makeups and refusing to schedule them without an assload of notice - and probably either curling up in bed or popping Deadly China Hero into the DVD drive and wrapping myself in the afghan. (AKA Last Hero in China, I bought it from someone on eBay a few days ago. It should have arrived in my PO box by now. Any movie that involves Jet Li having to dress up in a bright red rooster suit and get into a fight with a firebreathing centipede is all right with me.)

Meanwhile I've got work foo to deal with. I'll be more creative alter, I promise.
