Damn hubris!

I had just been congratulating myself on my bloom and evident good health since the return of a stress-free existence, when I succumbed to one of the many Sydney Winter Plagues that are being shared among my fellow citizens.

Suffice to say that if there was a way to weaponise snot, I would not only have the ADF covered, I could probably help out NATO.

The new normal, which involves actual communication, will return in a day or two when I climb out from under a mound of tissues and self pity.

On a topical sidenote, The Cursed Child is marvellous and I KNEW DRACO AND SCORPIUS WOULD BE LIKE THAT!!! (I mean, so did all my favourite writers, because der, but it was lovely.)

And now, to bed before 10.30. What am I, eight*?


*Yes, I was raised by delightfully irresponsible people.

Oh man, what a bummer! I hope you feel better soon.

I'm glad you enjoyed Cursed Child! I can't say I enjoyed it per se - I feel like I was transported to delirious heights with Draco and Scorpius only to be thrown down to the depths of Erebus with the actual plot.

But Potteresque-ire wrote something really beautiful about the play on Tumblr that went a long way towards reconciling me to it. If you're not on Tumblr, I could cut and paste it for you perhaps (have to ask permission obvs)

Never mind, she posted it to LJ, too!
