Calvert County fair is this weekend… I don’t know if I’m up to it, but we can surely check it out.

I haven’t eaten anything more solid than blueberry yogurt since Tuesday. I think that I’ll be up for something with a bit more texture by the time the weekend is over, though. Tonight’s meal of soft noodley-cheesy-tomato-saucy goodness was just right. Salad was a little hard on the throat, but not bad!

Watched Revenge of The Pink Panther with the in-laws and Louise… we quickly crashed out.

Hey! Cthulhu is in the Chesapeake Bay! There’s how we can get Colin to visit! 🙂

Back at work, and Nurse Newton is already back to slacking in the sunbeams.

OK, enough of this mess – I’ve gone to the doctor – the muscle aches have mercifully abated, but it’s even harder to constrict my throat than before… head is pounding, and I’ve been laying down so much that my back was starting to really hurt. Now I’m on Amoxicillin 500mg 3x a day for a week… that should slap this bug on the butt.

BHK picked up our pottery! Her mug is amazing… I must put pictures up of how it turned out – the green and purple tones are perfect. I’m also very pleased at how well my little volcano board / icehouse stash box turned out, too! The colors got a lot more vivid, post-firing.

On the way home, spied a new neighborhood kitten – maybe 2-3 weeks old… the mama was right around the side of the house, but it took all my might (in my already weakened state) to say no to a pickup of a little black and white tuxedo before we spotted her.

Today is my Brother’s 35th birthday. We’re sending him a copy of Fluke, which I think that he’ll enjoy quite a bit. I wanted to send him some pin-up type goodies too, but that may or may not get his whole shipment confiscated.

Watched the season Premieres of My Name is Earl, Ugly Betty and The Office. Also watcher the mockumentary Werner Herzog – Incident at Loch Ness… not so great.

Also saw the Bionic Woman… I have a long-time fondness for the old one, and this new one by comparison was pretty weak.

Personal Biases against –

• I don’t like nanobots as a plot device. Boring.
• Too much pseudo-Matrix type combat
• Terrible dialogue
• inclusion of obligatory hacker-character
• “Pleasantly goofy” factor is gone

Possible Pluses –

• I like the “Prototype Bionic Loon” part
• Maybe Bigfoot? Unlikely.
• No Lee Majors Crossovers. Probably. Though I’d be for it if he wore a red track suit and a cheesy 70s moustache.

I’m pretty impressed with LJ’s new snapshot link (Third part of this entry ) – it works especially well with wikipedia links. Interesting that you can see “similar searches” … not sure where current hurricane conditions in the Atlantic have to do with hello kitty, but who can say why a person clicks somewhere? It works especially well with art/scan communities that post links for dial-up folks… just hover and peek – spares a lot of lj-cut effort.

Holy cow – Last night was nuts. Fever dreams of being compressed and spread out over a latticework of red and purple circles – I felt like I was a wad of pizza dough, being roasted and smashed… stretched and smeared while being roasted from inside. Combine suffocation with the feeling of having your joints twisted.

It sucked. Sure, not so bad now that it’s passed, but heck… that may’ve been the worst fever/fever dream I’ve ever had.

BHK and the boys have been sweethearts and help immensely.

Caught up with out Tivo’ed Kitchen Nightmares – both British and USA versions. Also bagged some Eureka, the new House, too. There are benefits of being so wrecked that you can’t read a book or surf the web properly, after all!

I’m still of the opinion that UK’s Ramsey is far different than the USA one, but the American gross-out factor is winning me over a bit. Cripes… I don’t know why they don’t just shut a place down entirely if they get caught serving food that could kill a person.

Turning Points is dangerously similar to my concept for Pumpkin… I may need to revise my maze-y aspect to the game. Worse yet, it may be a better game! Pumpkin may go into a fundamental rethink at this point.
