day four of being sick has brought on some rather nasty coughing. because just having a sore throat wasn’t enough, now we have to aggravate the shit out of it.

i have taken enough vitamin C to turn everyone in cook county under the age of 12 into an orange.

i have had enough peppermint tea with honey to turn everyone who remains into a hard candy.

i am tired of being sick now, and want to be well again.

working from home today. i don’t want to share the love with everyone in the office. and it’s not like i couldn’t work today, because everyone’s going to spaz out about DOOM!, so i didn’t really think i had much choice between “working” or “sleeping and trying to get better.” at least i’m home, where people can’t just barge into my office all the damn time. and, also, cats here. cats > no cats.

bjork.
interpol.
modest mouse.
eminem.

these people — just off the top of my head — all have weird, annoying voices. but they make good music, and i am forced by my brain, which is clearly broken, to buy it.

and it’s not even in the same genre as, say, nirvana. i mean, kurt cobain wasn’t a great singer, but he didn’t have that shrieky nasal thing going on like the guy from modest mouse. i mean these people just have weird voices but somehow it’s not just okay, but it’s right.

my brain is broken. broken, broken, broken!
