dear viruses i hate you

[kalmn]

i have a cold. there is stress and anguish and drama to various greater and lesser degrees going on in not one, not two, but three different of my social circles. i currently cannot write an sql query without having it throw up on my syntax three times before i correct it enough so it will run, and i can't write a coherent and clear email unless i spend half an hour on it and rewrite it four times which is doable in many cases but sometimes a person likes dashing off notes to friends and not having them come back with a perfectly valid point that i seem to have forgotten my brain at home that morning. also, i want to do things that i have promised myself that i won't do, but my usual distraction methods take more brains than i currently have.

and last but not least i have a cold and there is not a line of people bringing soup and warm blankets to my house. waa waa waa waa. the juggler did bring me diet coke, though, which is a goodness.
