* The cats are mostly over their colds. I'm still sluggish and it's hard to tell how much of my sinus stuff is plant bukkake flurrying in our neighborhood and how much is pathogen. The Second degree burns are at the itchy as fuck stage, but I'm now able to sleep without a bandage safely. Today I had a salad made entirely from lettuce from my own garden. I also made pizza with basil from my garden. Omnomnom.
