There's a 4-alarm fire burning on the next block. I heard about it on the radio this morning and wasn't sure whether to be hopeful or afraid that it was this building (meaning I wouldn't have to go to work, but would be way behind and/or suffer irreparable losses of information and notes).

Anyway it's been going since about 6 a.m. and there's still billowing smoke and lots of firefighters. The lamp standard closest to the building is one solid icicle. Quite dramatic, yet we all sit around working as usual... what else are ya gonna do, really?

I think I'm getting sick.

Vodka and OJ (for the vitamin C).

Thanks for the advice

I've been trying out the zinc and vitamin C and echinacea lozenges I got in my stocking. Tasty, and they work well at the time, but the effects don't seem to linger too much.

Sigh. I hate being sick. Probably doesn't help that I mope around feeling sorry for myself at the least sign, but I'm TIRED, dammit!

/pathetic whining

Anyway, hopefully I'll be all better on Monday.
