i. ranting under the inFLUenz
I was happy this evening (around 8-ish) because my fever finally broke. I was even able to take a much needed shower (sweaty person with flu + blankets and jammies = stinky person). But now, I feel sort of fuzzy again so I took my temperature again, and sure enough, it's back.

Aaaargh! I have deadlines to meet! I hate the fact that I caught the flu when I need to be up and about with my wits around me. Why couldn't I have had it earlier this week when I had the time to spare. Aaargh.

I have three suspects:
1. My mom who's had her flu on and off since Sunday
2. A work colleague who was coming down with the flu when we were together yesterday
3. A client who's dealing with the tail end of her coughs and colds.

ii. x2
The funny thing was, suspect #1 kept me company the whole day, even cooking oatmeal for breakfast since I was arguably the sicker person (I mean physically, not mentally, although that might arguably be true also). But despite that, I miss my mom of old, who'd care for me when I was sick as a kid. You know, the kind who'd wipe me down with cold compresses and give me nice sick person food. Hell, I had to fix my own lunch today. Ah to be an adult. T_T

iii. i miss tv
We don't have a tv in the bedroom anymore, so being sick has lost all of its fun. I mean, it's GDed boring. I was leafing through back issues of Reader's Digests. I didn't want to gamble with reading my books since the first reader's digest I read ended up all crumply when I fell asleep midway. Sigh.

iv. omedetou jambitz and gins!
They finally set a date, for december next year. When Jamie first SMSed me, I was quite shocked. She didn't write the year, only the possible dates, so I immediately concluded that it was for this year. Only to be followed by another SMS saying that it was for next year.

Anyway...not that they'll be reading this, but:
CONGRATULATIONS JAMS & GIN-GINS!

iv. wish me luck!
So it's off to the kitchen for me to grab a tylenol, and make an attempt to write. While I would prefer to get back to bed, a deadline is a deadline, I guess. Besides, hearing about jams & gins cheered me up, so I'm on an artificial energy boost. Now let's see if I can update [info]kitchencow as well. :D (Illness is not an excuse. FOOD MUST BE PHOTOGRAPHED, Nyahahahahahaha!)

so that's why there was no food post today. i was so looking forward to it. but of course, your health is more important. you should rest and take in lots and lots of liquids. :o) i hope you'll be better tomorrow (and it's not because i want to see your food posts). ciao, Tony Lou.

btw, since you're sick, i discovered something on the mainichi:
Manglish is the Mainichi Daily News' new manga section. Updated daily, we give you the chance to read Japanese comics in both the original Japanese, and with an English pop-up translation.

i've ym'd the link to you the one who needs kaze-gusuri.

i discover nippon things when they pay me to surf.

Ugh I'm sick now too. It's amazing how you can still cook when you're sick lol. I'm on bento hiatus for now... too much is going on.
