Saturday

I know, crappy title…give me a break, I’m sick.

I have been so unproductive today that I’m beginning to feel less like 1.0 people and more like 0.89, or something to that effect. I lounged about basically all day, watched cooking shows for a few hours, and re-read some of the Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease stories. I don’t know why, but I find stories of CJD morbidly fascinating. Perhaps it’s just a deep human sympathy…something I didn’t think I had at all.

My ear is so incredibly congested that I’m starting to worry. Of course, I can’t read too much into that, seeing as I’m still recovering from my bout with hypochondria in the summer of 2005…

Wow! I’ve discovered a new talent: the ability to write blogs without any motivation at all. Hopefully I’ll kick this damned virus soon and finally have something interesting to say.

Until then: enjoy my nonsensical ranting and rambling, two or three times a day! Same time, same channel!

Viruses Suck

I don’t know which virus it was that’s invaded my sinuses, but I’d really like to get rid of it somehow.

My nose was so clogged last night that I could barely breathe, and by the time I woke up, my right ear had become so congested that now I can barely hear on that side. And it’s now ringing constantly. I really hope this congestion goes away pretty soon. It’s going to make my English homework more annoying than it already was.

When I began this post, I was really hoping against hope that I would be able to pull from my mundane weekend some sort of interesting fact or useful tidbit, but now I realize that that is incredibly unlikely.

“That that” is a phrase that has always bothered me. It just doesn’t seem right somehow. The same with “had had”. I know these are gramatically correct, but it really seems like there ought to be some better way to say these things…

Mucus

This is the worst cold that I’ve had in a few years.

Before this is dismissed as an entirely irrelevant tangent, I thought I should give some explanation for why this particular post is so meandery and incoherent: I am currently quite distracted by the massive amount of mucus swimminga round in my sinuses.

Anyway, now to the fun stuff (if I can think of any):

Well, this is my first real attempt at blogging. Back when I used to participate in the Myspace franchise, I had a boring little blog that listed no more than the various profile-view milestones, and that was it. This time, though, I’m going to do it right. I’m hoping my posts will be interesting, if not entertaining.
