day of ick

[alexr_rwx]

Was pretty sick today -- got up relatively early, meaning to get into work and get productive, but I ended up falling back to plan "B" which was mail in and say "feeling sick, WFH so I don't cough on you!". Although I ended up crashing pretty much all day. Many many hours of sleep and a few cups of coffee later, I feel better.

Tomorrow, I hope to drive to Florida -- Mom's show just went up! I think I'll bring the kitties; they could probably use an adventure. I get worried that they're bored, sometimes. But they were adorable today -- as if they knew I needed some extra care, very affectionate.

This week, I've been playing the drums a fair bit (with my midi set, and on Rock Band, and with this cool drum machine for Linux, Hydrogen). I want to learn SuperCollider and/or ChucK. Thankfully, I know where to find some tutorials and spiritual guidance (cola_fan) especially for the latter.

Coffee's a mild diuretic, which might be a little problematic, coming off an illness. You might investigate whether you can find a good veggie broth powder to keep around in case this happens again. I like the Gayelord Hauser one at http://www.modernfearn.com/index_files/Page390.htm
