4 days to go!

Well I think I only have 4 days to go until I leave. If I can stop running a fever and coughing until I puke, I might actually get to leave on Friday. I guess my fever never really hit 100 today, but I certainly felt like shit. That whole achey chills thing really sucks and is not the way I want to spend four days in the car. I went to the eye doctor for the last time in Baton Rouge today. Good News: my doctor's best friend is a retina specialist in Oakland, Bad News: I still have a blood pocket in my right eye and my have to get a vitrectomy. I think that's what it's called. They cut your eye open and drain all the fluid off so that it will refill with no blood in it. Tasty huh.
I discovered the best video game ever today. Gish is an independent game release, an genre of video game I didn't realize existed until very recently. It's a 2d side shooter that uses physics instead of shooting. Basically it's a really inventive puzzle game that has you rolling across the screen as a little ball of tar that can jump, slide, and stick to the wall and cieling. It's only $10 bucks at steam, for the pc, but I think you can get it for the mac too if you do a web search. Anyway, I guess that's all I can say at this point. If anyone has a great flu remedy that doesn't involve homeopathy, echinacea, or golden seal, let me know.
