Back Up

[shanmonster]

My back is really sore. For a while, I thought it was because of the hour or two I'd spent bent awkwardly while preparing a sand casting. However, the pain is getting worse, and when I walk, each step jars through my filet mignons. My neck is starting to hurt, up close to my face. f00dave's back is also starting to hurt. A couple of days ago, snowy_kathryn's back was killing her. I think maybe we've all caught the horrible back-eating flu. Almost everyone has had it in the metal studio. It seems to involve vomiting and migraine headaches. I hope I don't have it. I also hope I don't get the pinkeye that's plaguing so many people in the metal studio. Yuck! Still, if I'm going to get sick, this is the time for it. All of my homework assignments are completed.

Then again, I'm dancing at Kathryn's handfasting on Saturday. Ok, so I don't dare get sick until after that!

The pigeon chronicles continue. Late last night, f00 scared away a pigeon that was roosting below the window. This morning, he found an unattended egg lying on the concrete. The egg shell had the faintest pink tint. It was very cold, and laying the egg must have been difficult, because there was a fair amount of blood on it. The ideal colour for rubies is pigeon's blood. Maybe Ms. Lemmiwinks was trying to lay a ruby.

In the meantime, Jubjub Bird sits implacably, surveying all with his plastic eyes.

Holy crap! I hope you escape this thing, its cocktastic. I recommend you stock up on lots of juice and something that both reduces fever and is a good pain killer. That and plan to spend a lot of time in bed. You guys should come and see us some time soon, you can oogle the chinchlings and we can watch some movies.

I'm hoping whatever it is is leaving, posthaste. Although my back still aches, it isn't nearly as bad as it was, yesterday.

I'd love to come over to visit, sometime! When is good for you? We'll have to compare schedules....
