Aug. 20th, 2015 12:07 pmA whole week has passed since Cookie and I have been back from our lovely holiday in Normandy but I'm only now updating my journal because, see, I've been sick as a dog that whole time. Turns out last Tuesday (I mean, last week last Tuesday) my sister and I (my family had joined us by then) started feeling funny... then the day after that we just felt absolutely rubbish, it was basically flu-like symptoms. We got home on Thursday, as planned, and I proceeded to make one with my bed for the next three days. Turns out it turned into full-blown bronchitis. Because why not, right? So that's what I've been doing ever since we got back: been sick and miserable :p And coughing. A lot. I've been pretty busy coughing all over the place.
On this fine Thursday, I'm now feeling much better. I'm just quite impatient for the cough to stop as it's still plaguing my days.. silver lining, though, at least, ever since I started on the good drugs, they're not plaguing my nights any longer which does make for a world of difference! But I'm a bit sore about it not calming down sooner because I had to cancel going to see a play yesterday: there was no way I was going to subject the audience (and the cast) to constant coughing. They would have kicked me in the head, I'm sure.
I've read a lot but that's basically it for my activities the past week... I'm a bit bitter about that because we'd planned many fun outings with Cookie but, well. Thankfully, though, I'm still on holidays and seeing I'm now up and about (albeit coughing, did I mention the coughing?) we'll try to make up for lost time \o/ Case in point, we're having lunch with the in-laws today and plan on going to the cinema (Magic Mike - finally!! - Le Petit Prince, MI:RN, Antman), enjoying the sun whenever it'll come back, doing some biking and just enjoying our vacation for the next fews days, before I go back to work.
Fannish wise, we want to rewatch all of Sense8; so far we've only watched the show once and that's just not enough. Oh, Sense8 fans, did you watch the Making-of documentary? We did and enjoyed it immensely. It only made the craving for a new rewatch that much stronger :) I haven't watched anything else, I don't think. No wait, I've caught up on The Originals while I was in Normandy one night, so there's that. Apart from that, I'm mostly focused on my reading, which was pretty swell :) Hopefully I won't lose the momentum ;)
Anyway. All that to say, hello flist! Hope you're all doing well :)
