James phoned me earlier and announced he had man flu. At which point I did the real life version of NOOOOOOOO!!!1111!!!! To be fair, he has got a virus, but at this point he's told me he's dying 8897290173 times, spread a mountain of locket wrappers on the floor and sat with his head over a hot water and menthol mixture for ten minutes. Which would be fine but he's only been home an hour.

While he was hacking and announcing his imminent demise I was watching the Friday Night Lights episodes I have recorded, and I like. They nearly lost me in the first episode because man, a,erican football is complicated, but it drew me in by the second. The third is on tonight and I suspect the hooking will be complete then.

I've also been watching some Criminal Minds episodes I downloaded. I was going to wait because James likes the show too and we watch on a Friday night, but I couldn't. Sadly I'm striking out on getting all of season one. My usual sources led to a few episodes, but there's huge gaps in the season.

James has just announced he's sprained his ribs. I'm sceptical that this is actually possible.

But yes, I've watched many shows today, and also spent time at the Pit of Voles, because I had an itch that could only be scratched with many anorexia/kidnapping/angst/h/c/woe is me fics.

Later I'm going to answer the last talk post, because man, there may be fewer BSB fans on my flist, but you're sure detailed and dedicated. You win at BSB video watching! First though, I need to pick up the kidlet from karate. It's probably best not to leave him there *g*

locket wrappers

I have this bizarre image of a group of doctors crowded around the x-ray of Jame's stomach filled with dozens of different sized heart shaped shadows and then a quick flash to your floor littered with jewelry boxes and their little squares of batting.

I'm pretty sure man flu just means sniffles and is reassurance that men are indeed absolute wimps.

Now that's an image to make you boggle *g*

Man flu is an amazing thing. So much grief and suffering for so little cause.

If you don't have any luck getting hold of Criminal Minds I can burn the .avi's to DVD for you and bring them to camp sparkle (oh good grief it's really happening)?

That would be incredibly awesome! I'll keep looking for now, but if I can't find any more that would be wonderful. Thanks so much for the offer.

I'm glad you're going to Camp Sparkle. It'll be lovely to meet you.

Not a problem, it'll take about an hour. No big deal.
I'm looking forward to meeting you too, between the fits of terror!

I've been burning to dvd this afternoon and I have room for half a dozen episodes of something else on this last disc.
I can offer Battlestar Galactica, Bones, the Dresden Files, Dexter, Eureka, the Inside, Jericho, NCIS, Numb3rs, Psych, Regenesis, Standoff, Supernatural or Veronica Mars.(I presume you're watching Heroes?). Do you fancy any of those?

You're wonderful!

There's a load of great stuff to chose from, but I think Numb3rs. It's always good to have some Don and Charlie.

Thank you! And sorry for being so late to reply. I haven't been online much this week.

Any from the latest season would be great. I've been terrible at downloading lately.

Any eps would do :)

Done. You've got the latest few coz that's what's still on the computer! (that's 11 to 18).
See you tomorrow.

Men are such pitiful creatures. I just dragged Larry out for a walk, and while he hasn't said anything, he's been limping and taking Advil since we got home. I'm so mean, I made him walk a whole mile, and it's cold out!

Poor Terri James. I hope he feels better soon.

They really are pitiful. James is lying on the couch now after requesting the hot water bottle and painkillers. Of course, he was still able to put away his dinner then a bowl of ice cream.

I hope he feels better soon.

Me too.

From coughing? That's totally possible. *nods*

Oh dear. Maybe I should up the sympathy level.

How are you doing, honey? The family situation any better?

If he did it coughing, he probably has pulled a muscle in his chest which hurts like HELL. Poor guy. Poor you. Hope he feels better soon!

Ooops. I think I should be more sympathetic then.

But yeah, I hope he's feeling better too.

Men are whimpy when it comes to things they should be manly about. *shakes head* But I hope he gets better. :D

Oh, oh! I'm a big BSB fan too, I just gotta catch up on the years I missed. *needs to catch up* Woe. Lots of video watching for me now. :P

Yep, Corey joined karate at the end of last year. He's still a white belt but he enjoys it.

BSB do rock! And dude, you weren't tough at all! I hope you feel better soon though. *mwah*
