cough cough

I'm home with a cold, really really hoping it goes away completely before Duck next Thursday. I will be running hard once I get there. Staying home from work, doing indoor work (catchup on many hours of site and data maintenance) rather than the pond/waterfall work that also really needs doing, hoping to give the cold a kick.

After weeks of thinking about it, I gave in and ordered a Zoom H1 recorder for myself. I want a 2nd recorder at church for house POV recording (for music) rather than podium POV for speakers, and I also want my OWN recorder that I can take to conventions and such, because I really want to get some GT/PFRC historical stuff recorded. Since I waited so long I gave in and started my Amazon Prime free trial, and set a reminder in a month to cancel it before they bill me $79.

So this weekend I should have both the Zoom and the ExtremeCam, though I will probably try to do a little outside work. I probably won't be able to finish the waterfall feature but hopefully I can at least get things in order for it. I need to go to Lowes and buy fittings and 40' of flex PVC.

People I know, including me, who have caught a virus recently have had similar experiences -- it kicks your butt for a day or two or three, and then you cough for a couple of months. It is a great bloody nuisance, but not fatal. You should be feeling fine by Duckon if you have a similar bug, but don't be surprised if the hack hangs on for a good long while.

(sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings. Mine, circa May 7, flattened me for three days and the smoker's cough is alive and well today.)

Well, as long as I'm not contagious and am able to pull 20 hour days for Friday and Saturday, I'll be happy.
