Maiyuu and I both appear to be coming down with a bug. We do not feel too ‘functional’ at the moment.
When I am sick, I like to talk about it. The boyfriend prefers to shut down and sleep.
After spending the last two days sleeping on and off most of the day, today he declares he is feeling better. I hope it lasts.
My bug is still coming, I fear.
When I am sick, I also like to talk to myself. Last night I was sitting in bad chattering to myself once every few minutes, which is up from my usual rate of a few times an hour.
‘You must be getting sick,’ I told myself. Why else would I be chattering alone in such a busy fashion?
I hope my brain has some good topics lined up. An old wives tale says ‘Three days to get a bug, three days to have it, and three days to lose it’.
I am only on day three, which means I have another six days left to go. Will the stock of conversation topics last? If it doesn’t, I might have to start repeating myself. But if I am that sick, probably I won’t notice.

Wilko: I am sorry to hear that. Pinched optic nerves are awful. I hope you get better soon too.

Wilko, been there, done that.
1. Lie across the end of your bed and let your head hand over the side, breathe deeply and let your muscles relax.
2. Seated or standing, point the top of your head at the ceiling and stretch upwards as though you are trying to touch the ceiling with your pate.
3. Go see a chiropractor.
Dreamer, I have refrained from commenting on the new site, letting myself get used to it. And I can't. If it was my blog (and it ain't) I would be using 2/3 of the 'white space' for blogging and the side-bar for all the links etc etc. Just a good-will thought.
Of course, I will keep reading your thoughts, regardless.
Best wishes.

Yraen: Like you, I am not happy about the fact that only 1/3 of the space is dedicated to blog posts.
I might move back to the original template, or look for another one which gives me more space to write in.
