illin'

Ugh! I have the chest cold bug that everyone in Madrid has had. I'm lucky to have pretty good resistance, but when you travel in a metal tube with hundreds of strangers a day, these things will happen. Better the chest cold than the stomach virus that's going around. That makes using public transportation a bitch.

So I am still in bed, trying to improve my lot. I don't feel awful - just not good. I'll be alright.

Welcome to Fall and Winter '08-'09. Goodbye summer of '08! We hardly knew ye.

The novel chugs along. It's getting really complicated now. So many puzzle pieces to put together. But it's fun to be getting to the last 3rd of this massive project.

Speaking of massive projects, it's the monthly room cleaning. Bugger!!!!
