I cancelled today due to lack of energy

What a strange day.

I didn't feel horribly sick, though my throat and chest are still painful. For most of the day I think I did nothing at all. I forgot to uncover the bird cages till about 10.30, when I started hearing plaintive "Isn't it morning yet?" budgie chirps from under their covers.

I didn't read, even though I have a few books I'm really eager to read, like the new Robert B. Parker novel that will be due back at the library in a few days - and lots of online CLex that I would love to be reading, but just... didn't. Maybe because it involves putting together enough brain cells to be literate?

I did read the new dodecal at svdodecals by sandram. I do love those dodecals. Must write one a.s.a.p., as I love the current subject: Clark saving Lex. It's one of my favourite Smallvilel motifs.

I didn't write, I didn't watch TV, except a little when I was taping. I did talk on the phone for a bit, and make banana bread, because Angela made banana bread the other day and I couldn't get the thought of it out of my head. I even felt enough better to eat a slice. No real appetite, though. Now everyone who knows how voraciously I tend to eat can fall over in shock. Me without an appetite? Impossible. At Aliya's suggestion I made ayurvedic tea with ginger, cinnamon and cloves. It was delicious. Must take some to work tomorrow.

What an amazingly idle weekend it has been.

Then after 11 p.m. I suddenly got a burst of energy and vacuumed the apartment.

Go figure.

Sorry you're still sick, bunky! :-( Your tea sounds good - like chai, but without the milk, maybe? I'm addicted to chai, esp. vanilla chai. I had hoped there would be an ayurvedic booth at the Indian festival, but nooooo.... I'm sympathizing, and keeping my fingers crossed that I don't catch my co-worker's cold, as it's been a nasty one.

Hey, it isn't fair that I should get your co-worker's cold! Yeah, really, I probably got my own co-worker's cold, or even more likely, caught a cold from little Amani - he's 9 months old and likes to grab my nose. Just because it's there.

Anyway, I feel somewhat better - fingers crossed! Let's hope I'm more human than vegetable today. I'm at work so I have to at least pretend to be alert.
