Just when you thought you might get a holiday...

Isn't it HILARIOUS when you get sick just as you're supposed to go travelling? Who likes having extra sinus pressure during take-off and landing, raise your hands?

Ugh, I'm sniffly, and achy, and disgusting. Last night I slept for 11 hours straight -- the single longest time I've been in bed since coming to Australia.

And I still haven't finished my essay.

However, with my trusty econo-pack of tissues beside me, I am determined to finish it today... or perhaps tomorrow... but definitely by Wednesday.

Argh. This f-ing sucks.
