Timeout

I've spent the past month feeling more than a little sorry for myself. Personally I think I have a very good reason. First I had the flu, which meant I spent a few days in bed contemplating writing my last will and testament. This was followed by a two week middle ear infection, which thankfully cleared up a few days ago, only for me to be struck down by a cold. So I'm calling a time out on winter, on the whole flu season and on my traitorous immune system. Please I beg of you, give me a break.
