It’s Spring tomorrow – how exciting! It’s raining today, but you can feel the weather warming up. I’m not even wearing socks! Naked toes! (nearly wore thongs to Woden to do the grocery shop just now, but then thought better of it – but got to wear keds without socks rather than knee high socks and boots which have been necessary lately. *grins*) Floriade is only two weeks away, and you can see the flowers starting to bloom all over Canberra. Emerging from winter.

After mindlessly eating my second Freddo Frog, (after already having my “treat” of cake that day”) I decided, That’s it – I need another month without chocolate.
And it’s decided.
No chocolate for me (or Rish – he’s in on it too) until the evening of September 27.
A month off chocolate.
Help us all.

Finally took myself to a doctor, came out with a prescription for yet anoher variation on penicillin – this time it comes in pink and red capsules. Awesome.
I was also talked into having another day off from work tomorrow by the GP.
PS Happy Speech Pathology Week! Just because I keep trying to lose my voice, doesn’t mean I can’t communicate with you. ‘Communication: More than just words’

I have a feeling I should rock up to the Phillip medical cetre when they open in the morning and ask for an antibiotic prescription. My throat isn’t too happy after talking all day – I can feel the glands have swollen up in my neck.
Best to knock that out, right? Before I wind up with a high fever and being told to get thee to the emergency room to get my tonsils drained and hacked out of my throat? Or maybe I have Rish’s asian (bird) flu? Arghh foreign germs. Don’t need that.
I feel healthy enough for work right now, but finished up the day with a nice headache. Called and asked Rish for the night off from gym. Oh dear.
But I think I trip to the drs before work may be in order. See how I feel when I get up.

So, soup of choice when sick?
Rish has come home with a nasty sounding and looking chest infection (brought back from Malaysia, no less, what sorts of extra bugs could he have brought back from there?) and I’m trying not to get it too – though in a fit of not having slept last night, and feeling sniffly, sore throat and overtired myself, I’m home too. So I’ll get it, i’m sure…
I have good old orange juice, and all the ingredients to make up a yummy minestrone for dinner tonight and tomorrow night. I have a jar of Blackmores “Cold Combat” which I got as a sample. Let’s see if it works! It’d probably work better if I believed that it would do anything to help me. I believe in sleep, water, panadol, and perhaps a little garlic, because garlic enhances all food :p
I’m rambling, and trying to not get sick.

I’ve been back in the country nearly two weeks and in that time I think I’ve managed to clock up quite a lot.
Quite a lot of excersize, a lot of socialising, a lot of drinking, a lot of dancing, a lot of flirting.
A lot of fun.
No, Rish won’t “ruin” this by coming back. It’s been a great opportunity for me to have a go with the whole social thing without having him to fall back on, to hide behind, which is so easy to do. Taking a few chances on my own charm and wit and social skills, and coming out on top.
I’m off to Newcastle for the weekend – Rish will fly in Sunday, I’m collecting his luggage and bringing it back so he can ride his motorbike back down in the cold… But I’ll get a few hours up there to latch myself onto him and not let go.
*smiles*
