MANY bottles of water and 2g of ascorbic acid per day (buuuurp (acids make me burp)) later I'm feeling substantially better. At this rate my bloodstream will be nice and clean by the time Noir arrives for the weekend (and may stay for sushi with the SGIE folks on Wed). Should be a happinin' weekend. Everyone needs to buy her stuff though to make sure there's adequate funding for a whole weeks festivities!

Gah! It was more a rant about how XP was supposed to be easier to use, but really wasn't.
