p.s. I'm not about to drop dead.

NHS Direct are shite, if anyone cares. It took them an hour and a half to come back to me and tell me to ring the emergency doctor. How useful. I rang the emergency doctor and spoke to a medical professional in about 5 minutes, who said that I could go and have a blood test if I was worried, but it almost certainly was just flu, and if it was low white blood cell count I would probably have other symptoms such as infection in my fingers and boils on my bottom. So that was better.

Still cancelled going into work, though, and it's just as well I did. Today I've woken up with terrible pain in both ears. I know if I had to sit listening through headphones for four hours that I would have even worse pain and probably a ringing headache, so I'm going to have a lazy day instead. Don't know doing what yet. Alexa is spodding and Richard is still asleep, so I'll prod them in a bit.

glad you're not about to drop dead (I had kind of assumed you weren't, but still glad). flu sucks though - get well soon and all that. *hugs*

Ah, coolness! I have been meaning to phone you for a couple of days but not got round to it - the gist of the phone call being that I haven't seen you in ages and ages, not since you came to help me sort out the bank iirc, and that's far too long. So, er, ring me sometime if I don't ring you first?

i was meaning to phone you as well, but I'm crap at getting around to phoning. i would've emailed, but you don't always get around to emailing back, so err... maybe if you don't ring I could email you and tell you to ring me? or something... I'm sure we can sort something out anyway. :)
