Had a bit of a sore throat Monday night/Tuesday morning when I went to bed. Woke up with a worse sore throat and some serious nausea from the snot drainage. I think it's safe to say I have a full-fledged cold, as I've been doing a lot of sneezing, and I currently have one-nostril breathing. This sucks.

So, the whole system crashed at work tonight (Tuesday night). We're talking newsroom and production. Totally crapped out. We got the paper out, but just barely. It was damn close, too. Didn't get everything posted to the Internet (no news, not all the obits) but that'll be taken care of today. People will be bombarded with e-mails, I'm sure, from people bitching because we didn't update blah blah blah. I say "Shut the hell up and get a subscription to the physical paper you morons!"

I'm freezing. I need a big fat Mojo blanket.

*BURN UPDATE* No more funky Band-aid skin, and the burn is still a nice shiny pink line. I wish it would go away.

FYI, spell check wanted to change newsroom to mushroom; would that make us smurfs?
