7:58 p.m. - 2008-03-05 Yesterday was The Girl's birthday, so we went out for drinks after she got off work and ended up staying out a bit too late and generally annoying the other bar patrons by being the Drunk Couple Making Out in the Corner.* When I woke up feeling poorly this morning, I assumed it was just a mini-hangover, and entirely fixable by an everything bagel and a gigantic bottle of fizzy water. I was half right. Unfortunately, once the hangover passed, I discovered that it had been concealing low-level. more insidious varieties of achy-ness and sinus pain underneath the regular headache-and-mild-nausea. Real sickness is upon me. School was skipped and majority of my day has been devoted to reading blogs and poorly translated internet news. Anyone who reads this and doesn't know me is probably (definately) unaware that I am a frequent reader of Pravda, the Russian newspaper. Why? Gates to the Future Become Reality This Spring Russian Scientists Contact Nether World (I know the translation makes this one a little confusing. It helps if you substitute 'terrors' for 'terrorists') Centaurs Appeared After Copulation Between Human and Animals Thats why. Oh, and this isn't from Pravda, but I want to remember it, and it's a fun companion piece to the time travel article. Echo Park Time Travel Mart. I found this via Fabulist!. Ok, that's all for today. I'm going go drink some nighttime-formula TheraFlu, which does not put me to sleep, but does make me feel pleasantly floaty. -Britt *Btw, this may or may not be The Girl's last appearance in this thing. I haven't decided how much romantic-y stuff I want to put in here, especially given that my relationships have an average life-span of about three weeks. � Email me at [email protected]!� |
