Yikes this is a vicious coldPLAGUE. I was in bed between about 10pm yesterday and 12:30pm this afternoon, and slept a total of about one or two hours. My symptoms read like a list of likely side-effects for some medication; fever, dry mouth, headache, nausea, sore throat, trouble swallowing. Thankly none of my least favorite symptoms (i.e. vomiting, diarrhea) showed up, but it was a close call on the former. I was having some pretty amusing semi-feverish semi-dreams, believing at one point that I had exactly seven headaches, which later decreased to four as I got some water. By noon there was only one copy of me and my headache, a thing that was not so certain up to that point, but as soon as I stood up it hurt a hell of a lot more.

Dude, sounds like you have this strange version of a cold called "influenza".

Half of those aren't in any way cold symptoms.

Yeah I suppose you're right. When it was mere sniffliness and sore throat it seemed very much like a head cold, but flu seems more likely given everything else.

I hope you've relocated from the UC chairs. You'll never get better in one of those.

I did and went to class even and felt significantly better.

I'm not sure what I was saying or hearing while sitting in the UC, particularly before the Advil really kicked in. Something about warehouses?

Unrelated, but do you know what kind of name this font could have?



I am basically in love with it and variants thereof, and have never been able to figure out its classification. Probably because I know nothing about fonts.

And I hope you feel better soon. Plague is so passe.

"Handwriting"?

yeah "handwriting" or "script" or whatever. I don't recognize that particular one, but it looks relatively recent in being kind of goopily inky, almost trying to be a graffiti font slightly.
