Mostly I've been sick
Mar. 5th, 2011 07:05 pmPicked up some kind of Chanty-Singer Death Flu after last weekend, and since my boss is out of town for 2 weeks I couldn't take time off. The tenants could hear me sneezing all the way down the hall on Monday and by Wednesday one of them hung a biohazard sign on my monitor. So I didn't get a lot done but I held down the fort at least. Bailed on rehearsal and gaming because I had to run Teslacon auditions today. I do feel better but still have swollen glands, asthma flare, and the maybe-I'll-turn-into-bronchitis-and-maybe-I-won't cough. I confess I have been adding some of Pepper's antibiotic solution to my nebulizer cocktails.
Auditions went well - it's going to be some tough decisions to be made, and they are likely going to end up at least being partially based on "But we already HAVE 3 skinny middle-aged men...." and things like that. I hate having to cast by type, but we need an even gender mix and a variety of character types.
Once that was done I did a bit of housework but am mostly trying to take it easy to keep this bout of ick down. If I'm not better by mid-week I may have to hit the doc because I need to be able to get through the St. Pat's Day marathon gig again.
Pepper is annoyed with me because it was time for nail trimming and scent-gland cleaning - both of which are terribly undignified. Once I was done she did a remarkable combination of THUMPing and Dancing all the way to the kitchen to get the expected treat to make up for the intrusion.
back to the couch and the nebulizer for me!
