| | I woke up with a mild headache that's only grown as the day's gone on, not helped by Fiddy and his pounding bass below my feet since noon. Just wrote a Big Check for my income taxes, which I now get to go stand in line to mail out. And it's supposed to rain.
How was your Friday the 13th?

| | So far it has been pretty boring. Except I am getting a disk error on my laptop. Waiting for hubby to come home and check it out.

| | Somebody sent something to me yesterday--one of you sickies--I am all congested today, and I think I am getting something. I have a million things to do today too.
Sandy, any better today??? I know Lynn is up and about, looking at her tongue.

| | I'm on antibiotics but still coughing up lungs  The timing is terrible since my parents really need my help right now and I have to be careful not to give this to them. And, then of course, it ruined the couple of days I have left before I return to school. Bah, humbug!!!!!! Thanks for asking and I wish I could say I was much better. |

| | MJ--I think traces of your migrane have come to me. My eye feels swollen, and it isn't.

| | Don't ask why, but I've never had a problem with Friday the 13th. With me, it's always Thursday the 12th. But this year, the worst thing that happened to me on Thursday was buying some really pretty barrettes that are a little too heavy and which seem to tend to slide out of my hair.

| | I'm sure I'll be likin' Friday the 20th better. My two academic courses are finished, and I just have rehearsals and a choir concert left. Although, by Friday night after rehearsal I may be singing a different tune, bad pun intended, with the concert on Sunday and challenging music.
