Oh goody.

Okay, sinuses, whatever spicy food I ate last night is not a go ahead signal to bring back my annoying cough. Seriously. I'm back using cough medicine again. Oh yay. Trying to control this before it redevelops my cold again. Then again, the sinuses draining really didn't ever stop. It just lessened enough so my cough went mostly away. *sigh*

And a new development in my computer equipment. My Palm won't charge. Before you laugh, a Palm is a computer so there. :P And one I use often. I plug the cord in and no charging is happening. It's been finicky on particular cord angles needed to charge ever since it fell with the cord plugged in, but if I can't charge it, I have to get it fixed. The battery only lasts so long. And it's half down already. I wonder if I can pop it open somewhere and take a look.

The Zire 72s I believe are still around and maybe cheaper than when I bought mine. I bought this particular one when the model was just introduced. But I really do not want to buy a new Palm. I rather get this one fixed. ETA: Hehe, well, yeah once again I'm behind technology. Zire now only has the Zire 22 model. Looks like the Zire 72 model has been phased out. Oh goody. Though I did see some at Frys last year. So that's pretty recent I think.

Add that to the computer freezes I'm getting randomly, with the power supply fans being louder than they should be sometimes and who knows if any of the other fans are trying to die... Yeah, the computer gods really do not like me much.

ETA2: Bingo! It's the charger. Which can be replaced easily. Thank goodness. I forgot that my mom got a Zire 72 after I did, but she's not using it. So if mine ever died I can probably get hers. :> But I tested the charger on it, and it didn't charge at first. But twisting the plug around a bit got it to charge again. And it works like that on my Palm. So, yeah, the charger.

Oh goody, it is a stomach virus-thing. Dad managed to go back to work today, and he found out that a guy at his workplace just had that with his family. So yay. :<

Um, if I got anyone sick from this past weekend, I am so, so sorry. Seriously. This stuff sucks. But it does seem to be getting better today. Though now its accompanied with sore muscles. Of course, the ever present headache is still here. Though I did get a lot of sleep last night.

I was feeling better enough last night to just sit at my computer and play CoH for a little bit. Made my scrapper's Halloween costume. I'm running around as an Ouroboros Mender with batwings. ^_^ Too bad the belts and shoulder armor are signature items or I'd have those on my character too.

I'm attempting solid food (read: crackers) today and chicken broth. Jello is still my friend.

Erg. Just spent the last two days sick. Some kind of cold that got me fast and seems to be going just as fast. I've gotten so much sleep in the last two days...

Still feel tired and out of it, but I think I can make it to work tomorrow. I ended up taking a day off during our usual shipment day. It was a small one though so hopefully it wasn't too bad.

First time I've been on the computer since I got sick. Now I'm all caught up with my flist and luckily metaquotes has been slow lately.

Without clicking on spoilerly posts, I'm hearing Order of the Phoenix is a good movie. We'll see it on Friday. ^_^ Just remember when you see it, this director is also doing Half-Blood Prince. From what I'm hearing, maybe the seventh movie will be done by him too. (Or Cueron.) A new scriptwriter for the series outside of Kloves might help it. Can't wait to see the movie!

(Btw, still out of it, so if this post is a bit weird, you can understand why.)

I had to call in sick to work today. I'm heavily congested and have a sore throat with a little bit of a cough. (Just wait until that turns into a heavier cough with congestion...) I'll be back tomorrow though. I left a table full of yaoi books that need to be put up. And our shipments are arriving tomorrow. Though a sick day is so what I wanted during July 4th but couldn't since no one else was capable of opening the store.

M'not sure who I can blame for this one. But my parents are both recovering from being sick (Mom's still a bit sick). Probably them, and my complete lack of getting good sleep lately.

Off to lounge and catch up on sleep (if my throat and cough will let me). At least school's done with now. Just need to get an appt with my counselor for classes next semester and sell my book.

Finally finished Psych 1300 today. Took my final and the third exam today and I believe I did decently. Would of liked to study more but I was stupid last Sunday and got sidetracked by fic so I was running up to the wire to finish reading the chapters and test on them. Get to see what my score for the tests are tomorrow.

Bah, my nose got into the act last night. I really didn't enjoy trying to sleep at 2am, waking up at 2:40am with a coughing fit that continued off and on until 3:40am or so. Finally got some sleep after that. Whew. Got to see an episode of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd Gig. Nice dub. Need to watch the first season still though.

ETA: OMG, Death Note/Hikaru no Go artbook just came in. So beautiful!

Okay, summer colds suck. Especially when I have tons of unpacking/packing to do for Anime Expo and school finishing this week on Thursday. And I'm watching the store by myself for the weekend and part of the next week.

Suck.

So, I heard on the news radio that J.K. Rowling is going to kill off two characters in book 7, and it might possibly even be Harry. She wants to end the series in a way that no non-author sequels can happen. So I figure Harry and possibly Snape will bite it. Unless she's saying that to mess with our minds. ^_^
