Quick update.

I'm home. I'm back to work in DesWorld. And I've caught the Death Flu - although it is not killing me yet.

More when I've the time & energy.

GET WELL SOON *hugs*

Thanks lady, I'm working on it.

I shall now make a cup of tea. I'd make one for you, but by the time it got there, it'd be cold. But you should get someone else to make one for you because tea is wonderful stuff.

I've had a cuppa this morning, thx. And I'm also drinking cups of EmergenC. Speaking of which .... *shuffles off to the kitchen*

Oh no! A sucky welcome-home present. I hope you feel better soon.

My other welcomes home were nice though (I got a round of applause at church; OMG like whoah!). Even though I'm sick, I'm super-glad to be back.

Welcome Home!!!

Sorry you're feeling ill. The weather around here's been incredible. Think of it as the Bay Area's way of welcoming you back from the bog. :)

And after that she had ten years of pestilence and plague!

Get better! Or at least good off more; it'll help, I know it.

The SML tells me to replace the "d" with an "f".

Feath Flu? FesWorld? Ooh, fez!

Waah to Death Flu. (Which, for some reason, I keep spelling as 'flue'. The chimneys are attacking!) I would make you chicken soup, but if we had any in the house, I'd have made it for myself already. Also that whole transport issue.

*huggles*

I just had a bowl of spicy turkey chili for lunch; therefore, I can now breathe. A little bit.

Man, I feel cruddy.

Thanks for the huggles, lady. I suggest you douse yourself in Lysol after hugging me though....

Quick Wikipedia:

Cresol solutions are used as household cleaners and disinfectants, perhaps most famously under the trade name Lysol. In the past, cresol solutions have been used as antiseptics in surgery, but they have been largely displaced in this role by less toxic compounds. Lysol was also advertised as a disinfecting vaginal douche in mid-twentieth century America.

...

You Americans are FUCKED UP.

Douching with Lysol? Yikes!

Speaking of Wikipedia. (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/4695376.stm)

Yeah, don't good off. That would be unsithly.

More Des please!

A dispatch-lette from DesWorld.

Just for you, a quick Des anecdote: we had a staff meeting at lunch yesterday, & at one point Des' cell phone rang. With some incredible dance beat ring tone. After a moment of group raving around the conference room table (have I mentioned that I adore my co-workers?), Des answered & walked out of the room. When he came back in, we began teasing him about his ring tone selection. "It wasn't MY choice - my son Rowan put that ring tone on there. And look what else the little brat did-" he passed his phone to me. His background image was a vaguely disturbing but unidentifiable photo of- something pink & smooth. "Rowan used the camera phone to take a picture of his brother's butt, & then set it as my background photo. I can't figure out how to undo any of it!"

Technology: 1.
Next Generation: 1.
Des: 0.

AWESOME.

btw - welcome back, illness and all.

(But we STILL demand the exciting conclusion to the Sgt. Apone saga.)

Huh?

The crackers, woman! Frylock giving Sgt. Apone his comeuppance! The evening of the playing field, your righteous revenge, etc.

(And photo evidence of said event.)
