it just gets worse...

still coughing... had to have a chest xray today - might have a mild case of pneumonia... lower left lung still rattling... on way home from xray, swatted a bug that got stuck in my hair and managed to smack my glasses from my face and they skidded along the footpath for about 5 feet... blind as the proverbial bat without them but luckily the frames were glinting in the sun so could find them. fuck... scratched up a bit - will check with optometrist if they can be fixed without replacing lenses - the budget wont cover that right now, even with medical benefits coverage... came home and cried... tonight am missing out on the shindig that is the prize for the call centre winning the christmas decoration competition and friday night will also miss farewell drinks for two of the girls who are leaving this week. i am sick to death of being sick!!!

on the plus side, had a lovely chat with colorado tim - that always lifts my spirits and as he said, "things can only get better". i bloody hope so. also chatted with kd in the uk - another lovely friend who helps keep the positive energy flowing. currently chatting to mlb in london - the harley has made him a happy, happy boyo.

whatever, it's wednesday
1. How did you find out about the facts of life? originally via an education night at the local salvation army hall when i was about 10 (1971). lots of graphic (in the sense of pictures) depictions of the equipment necessary and how they join together... they also showed film of all sorts of animals being born - i do remember a giraffe - but not a single human child. later, in my first year of high school, i learnt more credible stuff from 'the little red school book'. it was banned but there were newspaper versions being handed out outside the school one afternoon.
2. What, other than love, makes the world go round? um, the laws of physics...
3. What is your favorite shape? a dodecahedron - i like the word more...

btw, want a logo? - found this at mandarin design - excellent stuff... so easy, even i could do this...

logo courtesy of cooltext - way cool!

btw II - no eggs on toast last night, they were past their use by date - erk... fresh ones purchased today, so will have them tonight!!
