Varia and sundry

[yakalskovich]

Thanks very much to bitchy_brat for the fun userhead, which seems to be a medieval lady -- it looks like this: yakalskovich. I am now officially medieval here for the next year.-

In other news, the codeine has done its job, I slept a decent amount of time, and those debilitating coughing fits haven't returned. Still coughing and sniffling a little, still moving at the speed of a shifting sand dune, but I'm only half through my course of antibiotics, and the rest will be dealt with in the fullness of time.-
