Well, I know why I couldn't sleep now.

Sick, sick, horrendously sick. The annual head cold, a holiday tradition in this household, has come for me. Sniffle.

Been housebound and kind of dumb since Sunday afternoon, pretty much just reading funny stuff on the Internet and blowing my nose and eating spicy takeout and napping. I will definitely not be attending the By Divine Right show I was going to be at tonight. All has been boo and hoo.

Thing is, this afternoon my ears are still terrifically clogged, but I woke up in possession of 1) a brain and 2) a sense of humour again. All the tom kha soup and curry must be working. Things appear to be on the upswing.

Also...there is no way I could be in a cranky sick mood in the face of this:

What's that, you ask?

The December Locus Magazine books sold page, with a big red football-play MS Paint circle drawn on it by yours truly.

I could not tell you why, but of all things? This, this feels like a milestone.

Oooh, that seriously on the table? :)

In my brain, at least, it is one of several possibilities. We have like eight cities on the table, and given he's Canadian, we've included a couple of Canadian cities.

Also, my firm recently bought a Toronto practice.

You must to come to my town. I demands it.

Well, we'll almost certainly COME. I've never been. So I really want to.

We are also almost certainly honeymooning in Canada, but further West (Vancouver and Victoria). And we'll be in Montreal in August. So Toronto is probably not this year unless I jump firms. But next year is looking kind of likely!
