I have a persistent virus, not much to be done, but she prescribed me an anti-emetic, so at least I can eat now. How's you? 2 4

They can be nasty little buggers at times, but hopefully the antiemetic will enable you eat a bit better and give your body the strength to fight the virus. I'm good, thanks. Was chatting briefly with my GP yesterday. He was happy enough with the results of my blood tests from last week. Nothing untoward turned up in the results, although he did say that my cholesterol level has increased a little since the tests from half a year ago. He wasn't too concerned about that, though. Edited March 5, 2019 by Marty Correcting another of my inevitable typos. 1 5

I was walking through the Eaton Center in Toronto one day, a couple of years after I came out... Scott Thompson was in the middle of this long main aisle in Eaton's, on the lower level--it wasn't busy-- and he stopped talking to his two friends, and in his best 'Buddy' voice as he watched me walk by, said 'Deee licious.' I turned back and smiled at him. Then he did his 'Buddy' face... it was a great moment for me. 3 4

Have to get my 6/52 landscape photograph done before Friday - and have a few other things that will get in the way over the next few days. (I've entered a 'competition' that the camera club I'm in runs every year, where we have to take and display one new photograph each week for 52 weeks. I've decided to do landscapes this year.) 2 6
