Still poorly.

Oh yes. I am. Bigtime. Worse today, if anything.

This is a really nasty bug - not so nasty as to completely prostrate; I could walk round to the shops if I needed to, but I'd probably be in a state when I got there. If the other sicklings on the flist want to compare and contrast, I has big headache, ache like a bugger, feel intermittently sick and just so damn tired.

And bored. Incredibly bored. I have a ton of stuff I want to read, on the lappy, on the palm, not to mention the pile of EDAs awaiting my attention, but reading is turning my already-monster headache into something from the M25 route to Hell (and Bev, baby, I am reading TNT and just loving it but circs are keeping me from reading and I don't want to comment till I've read it all but, oh lordy, I do love it so and wish I were able to finish it!) There's a heap of things on my palm I'm aching to read right now but any kind of screen is strobing on my retinas like one of  Michael Fish's jackets. This does not make me feel good. Ergo, I cannot read - or write - or even spend much time on LJ. This is making me sad. And bored. Oh so bloody bored...

So I'm kinda stuck with the radio and telly (for 'telly' read downloads and discs; there's bugger all on t' telly that I can see, not even on ITV3 or 4 shock horror; not even an eppy of Randall and Hopkirk today. )o:)  I've been enjoying Funland, for all its twisted darkness; re-watching Blackpool of course, and LOM and The Lakes and Mighty Boosh 3 but I'm running out of stuff...

So, any recommendations? Stuff that's either on TV in the UK; terrestrial or satellite - or something downloadable; something glorious I might have missed?

And now I have to stop because this is making my head explode.

([personal profile] t_verano - sugar, thanks so much for your lovely and insightful comments! I will get back to you as soon as my head stops feeling like it's about to make a new home for itself in a crusher.)

not in the UK, so can't recommend television stuff as i don't know what's one. however, have some leftover SQUEE! from my SCA event this weekend - it was *totally* awesome. i mean - *totally*.

Ah SGA (did you mean SGA?) is yet another I can't get into - does nothing for me I'm afraid.

S'OK anyway; I've been re-watching LOM and Doctor Who and I'm fine now. (o:

no, i meant C - SCA is 'Society for the Creative Anachronism', an historical re-creation society. 'historical', in this case, being 'from the fall of rome to the end of the elizabethan era', covering the entire knowne world of that era. the local kingdom hosts a big event called Gulf Wars that lasts a week. think 3300 people on site, and being able to field over 700 men and women in the heavy combat field. it's pretty awesome. plus the merchants, arts and sciences, completely amazing.

i was called into Kingdom Court at War and presented with an award, which is why i'm so utterly flying high as a kite. here, have some giddy happiness! :-D
