When it Rains, the Cat Snores...

So, there I was, not feeling too terribly sicky anymore, playing Civ III and trying to decide if I like it, and sort of humming tunelessly to myself. (Actually, it was also voicelessly, since I'm still very croaky. Said humming probably would not have been detectable with a parabolic mike at 2 paces, but I digress...)
Anyway, it was at that moment that my stomach, a large but normally unaggressive organ, decided to leap up my throat and take my brain hostage. Once it had my full attention, it growled at me:
( Hidden to increase the drama )
So, I immediately staggered downstairs, and made myself some lunch. For those that care, it was homemade tortierre with beans, because all it took was 4 minutes of nuking.

May. 24th, 2003 06:16 amSo, I'm awake. I think I am starting to feel better. I'm not back to being human yet, but I think I've at least reached vertebrate status.
While sick I've being playing Civ III for the first time. So far I've yet to decide whether I like it or not. Some bits are fun, some bits are very boring, and some bits I don't much like. I think I'll play a few more games before I decide for sure.

_sps_ that I still too sick to go see X2. It sucks to be me.
One small good thing is that the copy of the Mathematica manual that I ordered arrived yesterday. 1400+ pages. I guess Math is a big subject. The first two features I looked for (graphing of relations and calculations with signifigant digits) are not directly supported, although it looks like they are each only a day or so's work to add in since there are very closely related features in there already.
