Getting better

I almost feel normal again today. I had a good nights sleep last night, followed by the heartiest of hearty breakfasts, and I actually feel like I have some energy for a change. I may even venture outside later, for the first time in nearly two weeks! I’ve forgotten what fresh air smells like.. While being ill, I’ve mostly been smelling Lemsip, smelling salts, and the dirty sweat that collected in the folds of my fatness.
Hannah is still poorly, but improving. She fell ill a couple of days behind me, so hopefully she’ll be up-and-at-‘em by Monday. I’ve decided to postpone the birthday ‘party’ again until next weekend – to give us both time to recover fully. Sophie told us that flu can linger for a while, and if you over-do it, you set yourself back a few days. So we’ll have a quiet, relaxed, indulgent weekend at home and hope for better things anon.
I dug out some of my old uni textbooks this morning. Having got the idea in my head about making more use of my studies, I suddenly realised I’ve forgotten most of the things I studied anyway.. It’s amazing how quickly things go out of your head when you’re dealing with life instead of sitting in a lecture theatre, or being forced to write an essay by Friday.
Ideally, I think I’d like to get some lab work somewhere, conducting important experiments for the furtherment of mankinds knowledge, hopefully in the field of medical advancement.
That and blowing shit up, obviously.
