I went missing the past few days because I've been sick, and not in the "hand me some tissues and a couple of Tylenol" sort of way but in the feverish, voiceless, head-explodey, "hand me another box of tissues and three kinds of drugs and oh my God, my skin hurts" sort of way. I am feeling much better today, though, if still not healthy. I now seem to be able to sit up and open both eyes with the light on and think and type for several minutes at a time, so I expect to go back to work for a few hours tomorrow, since I haven't been in since Thursday morning. Which, incidentally, makes this weekend the longest vacation I've had since July, and the only vacation I've had since New Year's, which just sort of figures.

Went to the doctor today for some tests; unfortunately, while he's marvelous and knowledgeable and will no doubt have a definitive diagnosis by Wednesday, he will probably be unable to tell me whether this was my body's twisted way of telling me I needed to take a break. Because that's what I've done for five days: absolutely nothing. The most I managed to do was watch a little TV (one day I will write about how much I love "The Return Part I" and "The Tao of Rodney," and how absolutely ludicrous a way that was for [spoiler] to [spoiler] in "Sunday," but I will say now that I watched Stargate for the first time since becoming an SGA fan and laughed at the throwaway line where a heckler at Jackson's lecture asks whether the pyramids were built by men from Atlantis) and read some fic and nap a lot, and also clutch my head while cursing the evolutionary processes that led to the development of sinuses.

So. Just as an FYI, post-House post not looking likely tomorrow.

Annnnnd... back to a dim room to listen to the baseball game.

Oh, you deleted.

Sorry about that! I tried to reply via email last night, but I have no idea whether it worked. I'm assuming not, obviously, or I wouldn't be commenting here. *g*

I got it the same way I caught up on the rest of the season's episodes.

Whew! I thought I might have missed it on TV. SciFi loves to screw with their schedules (although the TiVo can generally be counted on to keep up with that).

I'd love to hear (in depth) what you thought of "Tao of Rodney" (or any other SGA episode, actually). So if you ever have time and energy to post, you're guaranteed at least one reader.
