blast!

so i am really too old to run myself down like i have been....i wish i saw a good way out of doing it again during finals.
the price i am paying now is a nasty illness that i think i picked up on the airplane.
so the good news is that i am on "vacation" and don't have to do anything.
the bad news is that i am on "vacation" and really want to be more fun than i feel.

ross is sweet and wonderful as always. he drugged me up good with some robitussin with codine....man is that good stuff.
it doesn't even taste as nasty as nyquil. gives me wierd dreams though...
i have been working on creation of a world for a story for a couple of years (sporadically, mind you - this is not complete by any stretch of the imagination)and i made some GREAT additions to it in that pre-waking state.

we have been watching MAD battle star gallactica....i am so adicted.....and now i have to sit at the cliff-hanger like everyone else.
drat!
blast!
curses!

also i just finished "perdito street station" by china mieville.....wow is that a good book. the world it is set in is CREEPY and sick and corrupt. it is a weird junction of the organic and the mechanical...the whole city...not just the people.
read it. it will make your brain hurt.
