May. 5th, 2005 09:21 amHA! I'm BACK!!
All shall love me and despair, etc., etc.
Feeling chipper and happy. The flu wasn't really so bad, mostly general malaise and lack of energy. The funeral wasn't so bad either. I wasn't particularly close to my great-aunt so while my heart mourned for my uncle who looked sad and lost and smaller I know that my aunt lived a full and happy life. She had come to the end of a long road and was happy to be going home.
And at the reception afterwards a random woman came up and sat at our table and we had a great discussion. She was extremely affable and Canadian and I wish I could remember her name. Thanks to her I think I want to learn how to golf. No, seriously, I mean it. It might just be a pretty good idea.
Now I am back at work, which is sad but not too bad. Yes, it does seem that my three sick/family days are going to be the closest thing I get to vacation all year, but I'll survive. It'll all get better, someday, I'm sure.
And Lost was on last night. I like that show.

Dangit, I go away from work for a couple of days and I come back to find people have been putzing around on my computer and changing the phone system and drinking beer in my office! For the love of Pete, hands off my stuff!!!
ETA: Good luck to all my British friends with the national elections. I hope that things only get better.
