I want to blame the guys at work for me getting sick, but I can’t. What I thought was the flu at first, or just a very bad cold, now seems too different. It started with the usual headaches and sore throat, but instead of me getting the runny nose, I am exhausted and even managed to throw up a few times.

I spent all of Wednesday in bed until the thunder and hail pounding my windows woke me up and made it too hard to sleep. Now, as I lay in bed at nearly 11:30pm trying to sleep again, I’m regretting that I forced myself to eat dinner because I feel like I’m going to bring it back up all over again. I think I would prefer the flu over whatever it is I have. At least the flu is gone within a few days. I’ve been fighting this off since Friday last week and thought I’d beaten it over the weekend… Then Daylight Savings Time changes everything and I’m knocked for 6 and totally not feeling well again.

So it has been pointed out to me that its nearly a month since I posted anything here. Honestly, I hadn’t even realised or thought about it. I simply haven’t had the time to spend on the web or my sites. Well… Thats not entirely true. I do still spend a bit of time on Digg.com and now that more people I know have started using it, I spend some (not much) time on Facebook again.

After months of no one I know being on Facebook, suddenly I’m getting flooded with people joining Facebook. I have a rule. If I don’t know someone personally, or I have not had a significant number realtime conversations with them (that includes in games, on IM, VoIP conversations or in person) then I won’t add them to my list of friends.

Why am I saying this here? Because a couple of people I played Guild Wars a couple of times with got all upset because I wouldn’t add them as friends on Facebook and so refuse to play Guild Wars with me again. (Bloody emo teens) From my perspective its nothing personal. You actually have to be someone I consider a friend (or family) or someone I speak with a lot to make it to my “friends” list. I refuse to let Facebook turn into MySpace for me.

Oh, and if I don’t install an app you use, don’t get all pissy :-P

Okay, I’ve had enough. I need to force myself to sleep right now because I’m feeling like throwing up and I’d rather be asleep than feeling that way. If my head can handle it, I’ll try to post something substantial before the weekend.
