Random thoughts

[paradox]

I'm having a bad reaction to the 'flu vaccine, and am thus doped up on cough syrup.

Some thoughts from tonight:

1. American Idol RPF : vampire!Tim/Adam Lambert = hawt.
2. I liked Desperate Housewives when the male characters were simply accessories to the females' stories.  Now the dudes seem to be actual fully-fleshed characters, and meh...  I'm just not that into it.
3. I must be getting old... saw a young (16ish) girl with the loveliest porcelain skin, and thought it was a shame that she had so many facial piercings, ruining her look - luckily, I realised that actually the piercings ARE her look!  But I've obviously internalised a lot of bullshit about style and appearance that I need to deal with.
4. I like winter 'cause it means I get to wear coats and scarves, but I'm just not a fan of air so cold that it hurts to breathe.  Lucky that I live in mostly-temperate Auckland.
5. I need to get online more.  Shouldn't let the fact that I spend all day at work on a PC put me off.  I feel like I'm missing out on brain candy.
6. I'm not gonna take any medicine for this 'flu tomorrow, but I am going to drink a lot of wine at my uncle's birthday bash.  This may not be the best option, medically, but I bet it will be fun.

4. I love scarves and shawls and cardigans - and, like you, love living somewhere temperate. I hate feeling cold around the back of my neck.

I just love scarves and coats! And skiing... my only regret about Auckland are the amount of rain involved in Winter, and the distance required to get to snow...

Feel better soon! I've had those flu shots for a few years but skipped this year. I have noticed the last couple of years yes, I get the flu, no it isn't as bad as everyone else but it takes forever to come and lasts longer.

The days are definitely getting chillier, we've put another layer on the bed.

Have fun at the birthday bash!
