On the mend, I think. Still really, really tired, but not coughing much anymore and my nose is clearing up. Should be able to resume regular Thai Food Mining if all goes well. Unfortunately, the [livejournal.com profile] sandwichboy is now sick. :/ Altogether too much of my monthly budget is being spent on Nyquil and other sick-related accessories.

It's been raining off and on today, and now when I look out my window, five of the thirty or so trees I can see are showing tiny little green leaves. Yay leaves! Down with tree nakedness! They're mostly the smaller ones; the big tall ones are still heavily budding, but no green yet. I'm starting to see insects too, which for some reason I've pegged as a sign of spring. Around here we have some birds year-round (mostly the pigeons) and so that's not a really trustworthy indicator, but bugs seems to be. Now all I need to do is find a garden centre somewhere in the downtown core and set up the balcony garden sometime soon.

Work time now.

Yes, but along with the cute cute leaves, the trees are spewing their tree bukkake everywhere. :P Damn those indecent trees! Their wantonness wreaks havoc on my poor immune system!
