Still home sick. Getting better, I think, but it's just feeling like over crud that's getting my spirits down. I don't like feeling like crud.

I also feel like I haven't gotten a lot accomplished in the past few days, mostly feeling like crud doesn't do a whole lot in terms of I Really Need To do laundry, wash dishes, pick up. But when I look back, I have actually done a bit.

I've gone through Amazon with a fine tooth comb and have over 100 books on my wish list, waiting to be purchased. So I have lots to choose from when I make my new order. Which I've started on, although I have no money to pay for it right now, and don't really need it with the 15 or so books unread on my shelf. I've stayed up to date with everyone on LJ, and even added a few new friends. The Post Apocalyptic Workout is being syndicated on LJ so I don't have to check a new site for updates. And Caitlyn R Kiernan, a writer whom I've met and really like, is also on there (bad to me for not figuring out that's who Wolven was talking about). This goes back to putting together an amazon order, because I would like to help her out and I've been meaning to get those books anyway. It's kinda sad that some of her books are already out of print, or at least, I can't find them on amazon new. And that's not even counting amazon japan, only three of her books show up there, you have to do isbn searches for the rest.

I've also eaten Jim Butcher's Fool Moon, second of the Dresden Files, and he's growing on me. I mean, I like the writing, there are moments that I laugh out loud, but the stories are just another paranormal murder mystery, not that there aren't a TON of those out there. But the story seems to be getting better, and I've added his other series on my list to buy.

So I've done stuff. Just not very noticeably productive stuff. So I'm going to eat some more books today, I think. Seeing how I'm not very hungry for the real food.
