Note to me - when I spend an entire weekend with a GM who is known to be feverish, it's a good idea to start taking immune boosters _then_. Not when I next spend time with someone who is known to be sick.

*sigh* Hey, at least I remembered eventually. Of course, _after_ I start coughing, I have a headache for three days, and my lungs start complaining. Have I mentioned being oblivious sometimes? Yeah, I thought I had... *amused with self*

Um. Ick.

Gary Heavin, owner of the popular Curves women's exercise studio chain, donates 10 percent of his profits to anti-abortion groups, including the radical Operation Save America (successor to Operation Rescue).

Also, the Christianity Today link referenced in the article.

Just a bit of a grump, then back to regularly scheduled programming.

This coming weekend (Sat-Tues) is taken up by a global company meeting. This means:

a) I will be sick during it, almost certainly, making it even _more_ annoying.
b) I will therefore be flying with a cold
c) I'm missing alt.polycon 11
d) I'm missing work group
e) they are making the days _stupidly_ long, meaning I will not get to catch up on sleep or have enough alone time (something like the busses leaving the hotel at 8am, and returning around 10pm)
f) I'm not at home, so I will sleep poorly
g) we have hotel room mates, and I have no idea who I will be sharing a room with
h) we can't have opposite sex roommates unless we are married to them - this means that none of the people I would have chosen were options.

*grump* Ah, well. Hopefully I will manage to enjoy myself anyway.

I was looking at a terrarium today [...], starandrea.

The Spoon Theory of Chronic Illness, as posted by shadesong. A comment made in her post made a good point as well, about how everyone has limited spoons, but chronic illness makes more things require those spoons.

Huh. I'm _strange_. Was answering a question in sunyata__'s journal about how one has met the people one has dated. She specified for a decent length of time, but... the length of time has not necessarily had relation to the strength of my feelings for a person. So I'm ignoring that part.

I've met people through:

-hanging out in the library a lot, on the computer, in college
-being in a college class together
-a dorm mate in college who was friends with the person
-Concord Outright
-bifem-l
-talking to someone on the street because she was playing a flute while waiting for a bus
-walking up to a group of people I didn't know and talking to them, at a drag ball in college. They all apparently thought I knew someone (else) in the group. I didn't. (not shy, me. Mostly. And somewhat balanced on the intro/extrovert scale)
-being in the same classes together, then going to a linux users group meeting over a year later, and meeting the person _again_
-an aquaintances's birthday party
-a boston pagan alliance meeting
-previously being co-workers
-alt.polycon

Hasn't happened yet, but I can _so_ see LJ as being a vector, eventually.

Look! A complete lack of consistancy!
