1123: Love Spreads, and so do germs.

I'm back -- thanks for all the well-wishes, everyone. Now that I'm not sick, I can give you all big hugs. Well, some of you.

But what a crap-ass day to be back out in the world -- it's raining like crazy here in NYC. It's the kind of day that ensures you'll not be able to go outside, no matter how careful you are, without getting completely slapped around and soaked. I can't bring myself to become one of those girls who wear the bottoms of their pants* stuffed into cutesy rubber boots, and I am therefore doomed to spend the rest of eternity with jeans so heavy with rain water, they're in danger of falling down under the strain of their own weight. Well, not really, but it's not exactly comfortable.

What can make today tolerable? The Stone Roses, obviously.

* By "pants," I mean "trousers." Or whatever you want to call them. I know many of you live in places where pants mean something else entirely. And within that subset, some of you have toilets that flush in the other direction.** Intriguing, no?

** Actually... is that true? I made a half-hearted effort to see what the internet had to say and came across this, which is a directory of public restrooms in Australia. I stand on the fine line between bafflement (is finding a bathroom down there really a subject of national interest?) and awe... although, truthfully, I am basically terrified of public restrooms in general. But I do love milk. And flying. Hmm...
