Hoo boy, I hope you don't have one of those nasty super-colds that's going around. You think you're rid of it and then - it's baaaaaaack. My own super-cold gave me a sinus infection which I'm now just recovering from.
Xmas was stinksville, spent alone (I wrote elsewhere about other ugly things that happened). New Year's was a bit better, spent with folks I met in another online forum.
