Post-sick

I've spent the last few days lying on my couch watching tv, because I was far too sick to do anything else.

The first few hours were spent trying to get comfortable despite the armrest digging into my neck - and then I realised that my couch folds out into a double bed...
I was a lot more comfy after that.

I got through nearly three boxes of tissues, in all.

On the positive side, I also got through an enormous amount of Farscape.
And I discovered that if I don't wash my hair for four days, it goes through disgustingly-oily-and-unmanageable and out the other side into really-soft-and-pretty.

Shortly before succumbing to illness, I went to the Regent Theatre and saw Wicked. Which was wonderful. Sadly though, I cannot go into more detail, as my memory of the event is now clouded by far too much Panadol...

You poor thing! I hope you get well soon. But yay for pretty hair! I should try that one day :p

Oh, that sounds like no fun at all.

Someday I will see Wicked as I do like the cast album very much.

Sorry that you've been feeling grotty. As for the hair - it really is true, isn't it?

Your hair really will end up wonderfully pretty... But that's after several days of yuckiness, so I wouldn't really recommend it :)

The cast album is rather wonderful. And the musical was great! and extremely funny...

It is. And it's so weird! I sorta expected my hair to just keep getting more and more tangled and grotty... and it just suddenly turned into perfect dream hair from shampoo ads. Weird.

...so *that's* how they make those ads?
And here I was thinking it was 'cause of the shampoo- hmph!

At least now you can lie at home watching new Stargates, should you get sicker and need to stay home more. :-)

Very slowly, yes...

I can indeed! *half-wishing I start getting sicker again*

or, have a Stargate marathon on Friday night- just you, Elf, a big box of tissues, and the team.... :-)
(and beverage and snackfood of your choice, if you're actually back to the 'feel like eating' stage...)

Aw, I'm sure you're feeling better by now, since it took me so long to find this.. -huggles and nuzzles- But I'm sorry you were feeling so poorly!

Thanks. I'm feeling much better now (but still going through tissues at an astonishing rate).
