Blogger Is Wonky and So Am I

Apologies for delayed responses to comments.

But, because I am morally reprehensible and refuse to accept responsibility for my own actions, I blame it all on Blogger, which has been a veritable PITB (pain in the bum). Again.

I can't access some blogs some of the time, other blogs at other times, and posting comments is a study in frustration as my meandering epic novels are lost in transition.

*shaking fists at the screen*

In other news, I was sick last week with a horrid cold. First took 1 day off work, another day to take me mum to her doctor (it was a routine exam; results pending), then a third day when I was sick with a stomach bug. So I was out of the office 3 days total and yet don't feel rested at all.

Doing better now, but since I'm seldom ill, once I do catch a bug, it usually hits harder. My ears continue to pop every time I yawn. *yawn*

And I still haven't done my taxes.

I feel better already. Not.

Awww, T. I hope you feel better. You should have said so. Why didn't you tell us, silly girl :)

Thanks very kindly, Fuff. :0)

The cold is practically done (got sick starting last weekend); just have a little runny nose remaining and the clogged ears.

The tummy upset came on Thursday night. Still a bit queasy but hopefully it'll be over with tomorrow. :-)

As for telling folks, 's all right. Everyone falls ill now and then, so no point in making a big deal out of it. :-)

It's not a big deal at all. Hope you're feeling better today.
