I don’t want to go on the cart! I feel happy! I feel happy!

The fighting in the Great Cold War of 2006 appears to be finally winding down. My nose is more or less clear even without the aid of decongestants, my ear canals are still plugged up, but not nearly as bad as they were. My coughing has diminished and the only thing really still bothering me are the lymph nodes in my neck, but a couple of Ibuprofen puts the smack down on that pain for several hours at a time. By the weekend I think I should be back to normal. Or as normal as I get anyway. Considering that’ll put me this side of three weeks of being sick I’d damn well better be back to normal by this weekend.

As a result I spent a good part of the evening working on the new templates for the site. That isn’t going as well as my battle against the cold. So I copped out and decided to take the layout I came up with for my Mother’s blog and adapt it for use on SEB. I dinked around with it for a couple of hours before settling on a color scheme that wasn’t eye shattering and the new logo looks like total crap, but I have a start and I can work on improving it. I sent a link to the template to Elwed to see if it kills him and if it doesn’t then I’ll continue to work on it. If it does then I’ll have some big time ‘splainin’ to do for GeekMom.

So this is yet another “No, I’m not dead yet” entry.

I like the calender, recent comments and cat photo(s). Having better eyesight than memory, I prefer the smaller font sizes SEB tends+tended to use, otherwise I forget it as I go along. I appreciate you putting time into something for only our direct benefit, I’m not going to complain about something I get for free and am thankful just to have this blog to read

Having to breathe is so restrictive, I don’t like having to do anything

Don’t know if it will help, but here’s the lovely mug I got for Christmas:

How cool is that! When you pour in the hot coffee, your constitutional rights vanish.  But they come back when the mug cools off - hopefully like our country.

And a very lovely mug it is. Now I’m jealous.

Water boils at lower temperatures at lower air pressures (look up http://www.lsbu.ac.uk/water/phase.html), which is why you can never have a warm cup of tea at really high altitudes - it all boils away
