I'm still not very well, and I'm off work today and feeling very feeble in both body and spirit. So I'm watching Merlin with Colin Morgan in it. It is simply scripted, in bold primary colours and with a bit of piss-poor CGI thrown in for good measure.

I hate taking cold medicine. I hate the way lemsip tastes powdery and bitter no matter how much you stir it or how much honey you chuck in. It then manages to taste over-sweet, powdery and bitter.

That's how I feel right now.

Still not back at work, but must go in tomorrow, hook or crook. Bit worried that everytime I get a cold it takes forever to get better, but also the fact that I'm worried about it does not help, no?

Two days off work and a Chemist shop full of drugs later and I'm feeling...

Um.

*slightly* better. Admittedly, it's just a bloody cold, but it is quite nasty and I do keep getting that headswim woozy thing.

• Nose - either stuffy in a no breathing way or runny in a I-might-drown way
• Throat - swollen
• Head - throbbing and full of concrete, I believe
• Brain - Working poorly. Found Terry Pratchett to hard going earlier.
• Bones - Tired and achey
