The bad: That flu that everyone has? I have it. Ow.
The good: At least I don't have to go anywhere today, so I am in bed drinking tea and watching Italian movies with the subtitles off.

I am totally taking recommendations for romantic comedies about antisocial people, the more classic or foreign the better. Currently on the pull list: Dopo mezzanotte, Pride and Prejudice (2005), Much Ado About Nothing (1993, with Emma Thompson as my favorite Beatrice ever). It's interesting, because uptight woman meets lovable fool is a romcom cliché that I hate with my entire being, but lovable nerd meets other lovable nerd is totally on my to-watch list.

Which makes me question (profoundly) why I do not own Juste une question d'amour. Gay french botanists in love, win! I recommended it when I first saw it, but I still haven't gotten around to acquiring it on my own. Sadface.

Torchwood tonight. At least there will be wacky alien hijinks!

Ooh! Second win! The guy is here to fix the weatherstripping on the door! It has been like a month, during which time there were several 50 mph windstorms, so, \o/

Ack! I hope you feel better soon! This flu, she is miserable. *sniffs and coughs and shuffles away pathetically*

It is a rotten one, isn't it? Though I'm perversely scientifically curious whether we have the same strain. Did yours start with a cough?

I wonder if we do! Mine actually started with a sore throat, then runny nose/sneezing, and now it's settled into a cough/chest infection. Ugh. I hope yours causes less devastation :-)
