sniff

I've had a request to describe, in excrutiating detail, every sip of that chocolate cocktail...

Sadly, I woke up with the flu, and have spent the last four hours (and it's not quite 10 pm, folks) in bed.

Side effects of flu include:

- slower thought processes: my attention did not wander even once during class today;
- lack of fear: I told a joke in my comedy class, and made people laugh! [read: made intimidatingly hilarious prof laugh; you may now sit back and admire me.]
- ability to exert control over helpless roommates: cf, fridge full of bananas and milk.
