And the candle does not in fact last the night...

Day 3 with laryngitis, cyclical fevers and a racking cough. Not surprising given how much stress I've been under. Mostly I'm trying to recover which entails watching a lot of Hitchcock, reading a lot of Heyer and others and plugging away at the rewrites. Which means not getting other things like shopping for a new external hard drive (Apple's Snow Leopard no longer writes to Zip disks so I lost my main back up system with last weekend's upgrade) done. At least I'm catching ip on sleep, also long overdue.
