"You look yellow, are you alright?"

No, it's not a racial thing. It's a comment on the fact that I cannot shake being sick here. I don't get it! I have had a cold from day 3, and for the past couple of days, a bout of food poisoning took hold of me. And what day would that have been? Oh right, the one where the magazine people were coming to take my picture for an hour. I didn't even make it to work til right before they came, climbed incredibly slowly up the 6 flights of stairs, and put my head on my desk til they showed up. I smiled for the camera, talked a lot (they asked me how to solve the North Korean refugees problem - how am I supposed to know?) and then they took loads of pictures. After they were done, my boss says, "You look yellow, are you alright?" FANTASTIC. Just what I want...let's hope some darkroom magic goes on back at their offices. I think the interview went well though, and it comes out on Christmas!

I saw puppies for sale in the subway yesterday. You can take everything I said about bunnies for sale a couple of months ago, including the fact that they could fit in your hand, and apply it to these puppies...If only I could put one in my pocket and smuggle it through airport security.

2 weeks til I leave...HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BAPA!!!
