My face hurts.  
This can't be a good thing, can it? I figure it's mostly sinus related since, hey, I have the cold from hell; but I've never quite had the whole of my face hurt like this.

Joy.

I'm still exceptionally bored right now. I've managed to cobble together some stuff to get done over the next couple of days but it's all brainless 'don't have to think about it' stuff, so my mind's all wandering off in the direction of fic. I have the whole next part of Crimson Regret worked out in my head now, all I have to do is actually get it onto paper and job's a good un. Trouble is, I'm changing the POV completely for this chapter and that's throwing me a little - 16 chapters in and a total style change. It'll either work or it won't I guess!

One of the girls is finishing work tomorrow for her maternity leave and we're all taking her out for a meal for her last day. I'm very excited about where we're going - Monster Mash, a restaurant that specializes in Bangers 'n' Mash. How cool is that?!

Guess I should get back to shuffling the paper around my desk again for another hour or so...

Your face hurting doesn't sound good, though does sound very sinus related. I'd mention it when you go to the doctors on Monday just in case it isn't.

Monster Mash sounds as though it's quite a fun restaurant.

my boss just put her fan on because it's stuffy in the office and it seems to be helping with the facial pain thing. It's odd.

And MM does ice cream floats and apparently deep-fried ice cream! How cool is that?

And who says Scotland's got the worst diet in Europe?

Y'know, I've never even had our national dish - Deep Fried Mars Bars...

I've never even seen Deep Fried Mars Bars on sale.

'fesses up to sampling deep fried Mars Bars in the heady days of College.

It wasn't too bad actually, enough to give you a heart attack just by looking at it, but taste wise it wasn't completely icky.

Thanks sweetie! I just can't seem to shake this thing yet - it's driving me insane!

I just hope you feel better soon! :) This is Em, by the way. I'm insanely lazy right now ... too much so to log in.

Gav's sick.

Oh poor baby! I hope it's nothing too serious!

Sorry your face hurts, but happy as heck that you get to go to a fun restaurant!

thanks Gabrielle! I don't get to go to restaurants all that often so I'm really looking forward to this! (I drove past it on my way home last night - well, I actually drive past it every day but yesterday was the first time I looked in - it looks really nice in there!)

I bet you'll have a great time!!! I'm so glad you have something to look forward to!

Yurgh. Doesn't sound pleasant. Hope that clears up soon.

Face-hurting seems to have died down today, replaced by the now familiar hacking cough. Which is now hurting below my ribs as well now.

Ah well, doctors on Monday so I should either have it sorted or at least know when it'll be sorted then! It's annoying because other than this I'm actually feeling healthier than I have in a long time!
