I Aten’t Dead
No, indeed, although feeling not far off. I have some sort of tummy bug and thus, have spent most of the week singing in to my toilet. The doctor has given me useless sympathy and tablets, although I can’t say as they’re working. I’m finding it hard to sit at a computer screen for significant periods of time because I end up feeling dizzy which leads to… more sickness, yay!
Obviously this means little or no responding to e-mails, q*bee activities are on hold, bug tweaks of NinjaLinks are going no where fast (although I did fix a bug when adding a category, in a moment of weakness — and to stop the flurry of e-mails!) etc etc.
And cookies if you get the subject reference.

Wow,
that’s awful ):
I had a similar bug about two weeks ago,
and my mom had it last week,
and now we’re gutting out our bathroom and getting a new one ! :D
So I’m quite happy for this stomach bug.

I wish you lots of recovery (so that you can come back and entertain us with pants awards and British insults, of course).

Ugh, I also had the flu-ish-type-thing this week. It was hell. HELL. I hope you get better soon. I’ve been able to eat today, so I’m pleased with my progress. :P Here’s hoping the same for you!

I hope you feel better soon! *EVERYONE* seems to be sick right now, myself included. :( I don’t get particularly dizzy whenever I’m at the computer, but rather, whenever I try to move LOL … But yeah, just take it easy, get lots of rest (easier said than done, of course), drink lots of water to replace fluids you lose and you’ll be back to normal in no time. :)

Chans said:

Get better soon! It really is going around at the moment but I’m pretty sure that isn’t a consolation if you have to run to the toilet all the time.
Arwen said:

so, no-one’s gone for the cookies yet. Knowing you it’s either a Simpsons reference or a Pratchett one, and it ain’t the first. Plus google says so, haha
Amelie said:
On 21 Oct 2008 at 8:58 pm
^ Someone already got the Pratchett reference… I don’t do Pratchett so I didn’t get it, but apparently it’s what Granny Weatherwax puts up when she’s off taking over people’s bodies or whatever. (I could be wrong. It was explained to me in great detail and I have forgotten most of it)

Rose said:

I certainly hope you recover soon, so you can post again and make my day. (Selfish reasons all the way!) Tell your doctor to make you better.
Vera said:
On 22 Oct 2008 at 7:44 pm
It’s been bugging me for “ages” and I only just realized. IT’S A DISCWORLD REFERENCE! *phew* Now I can sleep easily again, you quoted the “card” that granny Weatherwax holds, while she’s out borrowing. :D

I love the roundness of this layout…and the colors are so calming. Although the site title image seems kind of random; what’s with the ninja?
And the drop shadow on the text looks a little strange.

Hope your feeling much better after your tummy bug. They’re proper nasty. What I hate is when people have colds and come into college (or high school for Americans) while they’re ill. I always end up catching their cold! I must have a weak immune system or something haha. :)

Karl said:

She’s still not dead. Just sofa-bound, food regurgitating and without even the energy to come upstairs to the laptop. Or even to start mine, next to the sofa..

Aisling said:

@Karl: But… it’s been weeks! Has she been to the doctor? SHE HAS TO GET BETTER SOON!!! DON’T DIE, JEMMIE, MY LOVEEEEE!!!!! :'(
Carly said:

Julie said:
On 28 Oct 2008 at 10:22 pm
Oh! :( I hope she gets better soon. Well, now, actually.
Julie said:
On 28 Oct 2008 at 10:22 pm
P.S. We know someone is really sick when she doesn’t have the energy to use her laptop.

Still sick?? It’s been weeks now. What’s wrong? Aw boo. At least you have the energy to tell Karl to let your readers know how you are… or did he do that by himself?
Again – get well very soon.

I’ve been continuously stalking you on Google Reader … and noticed that what is usually an almost daily update is now … half a month ago.
I miss you and your updates, and I hope you’re feeling better. (: Lots of warm water and vitamin C helps! ;)

You have very good humor! But I hope that you get better. There is nothing worst than the stomach flu or bug. I had it once and I was throwing up anything that I put in my mouth! :( Sorry if too much info. Hope you get better soon!
