My sister has gone back to Texas. I'm certainly well enough to be on my own now, I just don't have any ambition to do anything but read and fall asleep. I did finish the puzzle we were working though.

It's kind of frustrating. I have a perfectly good RPG (Suikoden V) sitting waiting for me and a great big TV, and I haven't turned on either of them. Just reread books I practically know by heart. But I can fall asleep in the middle of them. I wake up, I glance through my flist, gaze at my e-mails, and then tip over. But today I got a package with puzzles (sudoku) chocolate and DVDs of "Good Eats" so tomorrow I may be more ambitious.

I hurt just enough to want the ice pack and the oxycodone. Tried tylenol this morning and it didn't really work -- I think I overdid the stuff the last go round. But gradually I'm using less of the painkiller (because I need it less) so I'm hoping to get back to work next week sometime. Hopefully in the interval my bunnies will stop snoring and wiggle noses a little.

mariole is up to part eight now. It's a very exciting fic. I'd make links, but I haven't got enough brain cells. There needs to be more Sam h/c out there.

I am Sam
Sam I am
Will you write me in a jam?
Will you trap me in a box?
Will you chase me with a fox?
Will you comfort me with beer?
Give my fans a call to cheer?
...

Nope, not even up to doggerel yet...

I was just about to poke you and ask how you were! I'm so glad you're getting better. Be sure to let me know any unusual symptoms so I can work them into the fic.

The next bit is pretty long, so it's taking a while. But it will be up tonight or tomorrow AM, depending on how many chores I have to complete tonight.

Response to your doggerel:

I am Sam

You poor sot.

Sam I am

Obviously, the delirium is setting in.

Will you write me in a jam?

Absolutely!

Will you trap me in a box?

Well, the hollow is a kind of box...

Will you chase me with a fox?

Drat! Not outlined. Part 11.

Will you comfort me with beer?

I'm sure that won't happen until Part 47.

Give my fans a call to cheer?

Probably not until the epilogue. I'm just a mean, mean author.

I'm so glad you're doing better! Take it easy, and nap a lot!

You may want to note -- although I doubt they can find ice for poor Sam -- that the ice pack which you don't get out of the freezer because you are only going to lay down for "five minutes" hasn't really done you much good when you wake up five hours later...

*goes back to bed... with the ice pack this time!*

I think the last thing Sammie needs at this point is an ice pack, but you can judge that for yourself. Part 9 is up! Take it easy today!s
