Saturday started out with me feeling completely gross. Actually, that started in the middle of the night and kept me up and it was a real pain in the ass. As a person who doesn't get sick much, it usually takes me a while to put 2 and 2 together so, I'm guessing that I haven't felt well for a couple of days and I'm just now figuring it out. Wah wah. The last time I had the actual flu was 1998. I'm serious. Not that this was the flu, mind you. Anyhoo, I got up really early and puttered around doing all sorts of hyper-focused things which is my modus operandi when attempting to avoid behaving like I'm sick (i.e doing nothing.)

The following things were accomplished by me at the crack of dawn: 1) cleaned kitchen, 2) created 9 envelopes of various sizes from a map of the world given to me by the Mighty Lee, 3) threw out copious amounts of previously filed papers that are now meaningless, 4) filled a garbage bag with stuff I can't believe that I still have. The phone rang around 9 am and, after hanging up, I fell asleep for three hours. Then I cleaned the tub and it's now fit to take a bath in. God, is it ever hot. Then, I took scissors to my old man pajama pants again and turned them into shorts.

Here is a marvelous comic book cover sent to me recently. It is amazing and funny needed to be posted for obvious reasons.
