I'm sick again

Once again my husband has mutated the common cold into some kind of virulent nasty plague that I have caught. He only felt bad one day during his sickness, and is now well on the mend, while I am just hitting day 2 of feeling really bad. I'm taking vitamins and tea and the whole bit though, so I should be good soon. I hope.

Going to work today... grumble grumble. Even though Dale doesn't deserve it because he's baled on the last week of work and left me with people in training and people who are getting fired so they don't care about doing work anymore. But if today is anything like the last week was, we will be pretty damn busy, so I should really go in to keep us from getting any farther behind.

Ah, green tea. Nature's remedies are so nice, aren't they?

Last night we went up to campus to see everyone. Jeff played EverQuest II, and I watched Garden State. He's not hooked, so it's safe for now. I think at some point he may give in and get World of Warcraft, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.

I enjoyed Garden State, but probably not as much as I would have if a) I wasn't sick and b) if Paul hadn't built it up so much. The story was interesting. I thought the movie dragged like hell for the first 30 min, til Natalie Portman's character showed up. While I understand this could be seen as part of the interpretation of the script, the main character, Largeman, had been heavily medicated all his life and him going off the abundance of medication coincided with him meeting her. So as his life got interesting, so did the movie. Ah, I'm no movie critic. It didn't suck. I give it a thumb and a half.

MP and BB, must continue bolstering my immune system.
