I am sure you will all be glad to know that I do not have the hamthrax (as many people have called it). Mostly I just had some severe chills (that Advil easily knocked out for however long that particular dose lasted, although they would then come back pretty strongly) and pronounced fatigue, but no actual fever (or if I did, it was very low--I didn't actually take my temperature). I knew I was sick, though, when I was too tired to go downstairs and write (type), even though I was full of ideas. I even tried to read, but kept falling asleep. Woe. And then I woke up today and the sun was blazing through the windows and I felt FANTASTIC. A little weak, and I'll probably pass out again this afternoon, but: FANTASTIC. So I am, in fact, downstairs right now trying to work on the Harry Potter thing a bit more, and if I'm very good, I'll let myself work on my new story idea. Oh, and on a new doll thing.

Aw, you're just a little flower that needed some sunshine to feel better! Glad to hear it. (I typically enjoy rainy days, but even I noticed that I was starting to feel bad after days and days and days of monsoons. Today is sunny and I feel better, too.) Spend some time sitting outside or near a window so you can soak up some brightness!

Also, hamthrax is officially going in my lexicon.

I read this post and "I Feel Fantastic" by Jonathon Coulton instantly popped into my head.

Yeah for feeling better! I'm with you when you mention being full of ideas and having no way/desire to take care of them. Darn Muses.

I'm glad you're felling better. Purely for your own sake and not at ALL for the forthcoming possible SLOD.

Yay! I'm so glad you don't have swine flu. IT SUCKS. Even though after everything you've gone through, it'd probably just be like, "Swine flu? I LAUGH in the face of swine flu!"
But it sucks, so yeah.

Yay, doll thing... I've really missed those. I got three friends hooked on it a week before the compocolypse..

Oh, did you know you have a page on TvTropes? I'm sure you do... but I didn't. =)

Heh, yeah. I discovered it one day by chance. One of the proudest moments of my life, that "Littlest Cancer Patient" page, let me tell you.

No, you have an actual page: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CleolindaJones

No, I know. I just mean that I found the other one first. I like how I also appear on the Sesquipedalian Jones page.

Have you ever considered becoming a screenwriter?
I'm just asking.
I know, it mostly ends being a very unrewarding business for most people who try to go that way but ... have you?

Date: 2009-09-27 11:55 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] cleolinda.livejournal.com
I've always wanted to adapt books for the screen, but other than that, I just really don't think of stories in terms of screenplay format; I tend to think of them as novels.

From: [identity profile] ctrlshiftk.livejournal.com
How funny! As a screenwriter, I don't know how to write novels.

Hmm :)
kinda curious, considering all your seceret life of dolls and and the M15M .
That and your general writing style, that's how I came up with that thought.

Date: 2009-09-28 02:45 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] cleolinda.livejournal.com
Well, but notice how the 15Ms are all parodies of existing stories, rather than original stories in script format. Although I admit, I do kind of plan out and structure the doll thing the way you might a TV drama.

OH YAY SECRET LIFE!

Aww, good for you, Cleo. I have to admit was feeling annoyedly crappy this morning thanks to allergies, but your words about resting it off to wake up great in the sun gave me some of that feel-good energy. Let's hear it for good mind power!
(Oh, and funniness. Gotta have funniness. Loved your last installment for that, and wondered, have you seen the 'DM of the Rings' comic?)

So glad to know that you're alright. I was a bit scared.
