can't sleep cold will get me

I returned from Galveston with a nasty head cold that has only gotten worse in the intervening hours, so today I am home sick and rolling around on the couch, slow blinking through the glasses I somehow managed to gouge scratches in over the left eye and trying to work out how to think through about two inches of mucous. I am resolutely taking my Dayquil, which historically does bad things to my brain-to-words filter, so... look forward to me watching the beginning of The Good Doctor and liveblogging shit as it occurs to me, I guess. I was doing a lot of DWing on phone yesterday--my colleage D helpfully drove all the way back from Galveston to Austin with Tribble and his husky baby Arya in the back seat--and I think as long as I route everything through my mobile-friendly theme, it's okay.

Also, I remain completely in love with posting and replying via email. That is magical. It is the most useful thing for mobile, I swear to god, because if the browser dies your email draft remains saved.

Sick-person solidarity to [personal profile] staranise, who I hear is also battling the cold monsters, and a more general joy-in-others'-joy to [personal profile] siderea whose upcoming move sounds like a great change for the better.

Yeah, I pretty much exclusively post via email. It is indeed the best.

As far as being sick goes, it sounds like you're making the most of it. Feel better soon!

Ugh, feel better soon. I just got over a winter cold & while it was happening I was not a fan.

I hope the head cold is short-lived. :(
