Saying DEAD into belly and DEATH into shoulder.

I have just bought a replacement laptop — another N410c, the 1.2GHz this time, for £238.53 including shipping and VAT. I bid with about ten seconds to go. I assume it'll be about a week.

I think my body decided I was about to stop work so now was an ideal time to fall ill. I've spent the day in bed having what redcountess calls Boy Flu, i.e. I feel like crap, cough up slime and whine a lot. The job interview has been moved to Friday. I'll probably take tomorrow off too and do my damnedest to get in for the last two days. *ka-ching*!

arkady is back! Liz and Arkady have been in a babbling doll frenzy since she walked in the door.

p.s.: killll meeee.
