Christmas Week

I hope everyone's had a wonderful week and Father Christmas brought you what you wished for.

Unfortunately, I've spent the whole week fighting the most incredible sore throat virus I've ever had. It'd rendered me almost unable to speak, much to everyone's relief, and has kept me up all night long. Not in the good way mind you. Due to the lack of sleep and the medication, and one point I was hallucinating that the virus was sentient, and was planning it's attacks. Then I started to think I had Numbskull-type people in my head running all of my failing departments. "Mavis in my right ear isn't doing a very good job at keeping the attacks at bay" I thought. Only to realize that there is no one named Mavis living in my right ear. It's all my childhood imagination resurfacing at rather strange moments.

Pre-Christmas

Alice and Carl came over last wekend. I've not seen them for about ten years or so, and I have to admit, it's still a bit strange to see friends here in England when I'm so used to seeing them in America. But they both seem to be doing great, and it was fantastic to catch up.

Up in London, the Christmas party is to tomorrow, and apparently not many people are coming in friday. Looks like it might be an easy day!
