I'm skipping a meeting tonight because I'm a bit fragile (the inflammation thing again) and because I have so much work to do. I've chosen the most fun work as the first part of my big catch-up. I'm 1/5 of the way through a Harry Potter marathon. By about 8 pm I'll be 3/5 of the way through with most of my teaching notes worked out. If my legs would shrink and the skin would decide to kindly not be inflamed and etc ('etc' is one of those 'detail you really don't want to know' things), I would be very happy with this program.

Later tonight I need to catch up on some unsent manuscripts and pay a bill. If I write it here then it will happen. This is good, because tomorrow is a tad long, and I won't have time for work until after lunch. Getting a referral for a colonscopy is going to take 2 hours, I'm told, but taking it to the hospital and getting my packet of stuff for the colonoscopy will take half that time. Chaz, I'm reading one of your books while I wait. If I get fretful in the waiting room, then you're probably cursed or something.

You'lll have to excuse me. Harry's arguing with Hermione and I'm sure there's something teachable in that argument.
