Bah humbug. Chinese New Year failed to happen last night due to disease. I woke up with a sore throat, and systematically began to feel worse and worse throughout the day, so by evening time I was about capable of lying on a sofa feeling sorry for myself. I think it's just a nasty cold in the head, but there was no way I could sensibly go wandering around Chinatown when I'd started to go slightly giddy and feverish.
Today I am feeling much better. My nose is blocked up, I'm sneezing and I'm weirdly hot wherever I go, but I can breathe a bit better and I'm not feeling unsteady walking downstairs.
*snuffle*
I shall, however, spend today curled up on a sofa with some books and try and avoid moving much. Oh - I did go and see Ocean's 12 yesterday afternoon. I suspect that might have been an error, but Catherine Zeta Jones did have great hair in it. Vincent Cassel, sadly, came across as mostly rather camp.
I'm vaguely pondering books today. Mostly I'm pondering the existence of books which you have read a dozen times, but can still read again and just find the flow of the words comforting. I spent yesterday and a chunk of today reading the Queen's Quarter trilogy by Midori Snyder, which I am aware I need to somehow get tofire_kitten at some point! They are amazingly comforting books. I've read them often, but I can keep reading them, happy to just be in the company of Jobber, and Shedwyn and Tayleb. Do other people have books like this? What would be your rainy snuffly day read of choice?
