Hrm. It appears a post I made a while ago about being ill got eaten by LJ somewhere along the way. Along with the period disconnects we've been getting, with IRC and IMs screwing up occasionally and all, communication seems to have been very patchy of late. Are we having solar flares, Mercury in retrograde, or some other arcane piece of universe-hatey right now? I don't know.

In any case: potential swine flu, given the symptoms that my father and I have shared for the last 2-3 weeks. No contact prior to infection, but we both went through Brisbane on our holidays and fell ill shortly after returnning home. Symptoms not severe enough to require administering antivirals, but still nasty and unpleasant.

Also, Sleeping is difficult as the cherry blossom in our front yard is currently being dissected with power tools, and from the sound of things possibly blended to a fine paste. Glad I got some photos while it was still there, I guess.

Strange - I can't. I guess LJ's hamster wheels are running at different speeds for different people, or something.

That's sad your cherry blossom tree is being destroyed. )c:
I have a massive one in my back yard and i love it to pieces. The weather last night however, has caused the backyard to look like it's covered in snow.

Yeah, I saw that post too!

And I had 'suspected Swine Flu' too. Got to the doc too late otherwise I'd have been given Tamiflu. Man, it was a real awful experience. I wish you a very speedy recovery.

Sad about the tree!

I know it doesn't really help to know this, but the only real benefit of Tamiflu is having your infectiousness not last as long.
