Because of computer issues, I was absent last week. I'm not crazy about posting/reading LJ off my phone. Anyway, said computer issues seem to be fixed, so here I am.
Random thoughts:
1. I read Cormac McCarthy's The Road on Saturday. This book blew me away. It's a novel about a man and his son trying to survive in a post-apocalyptic world. It explores what some will do to survive -- and what others will not. Have you read it? What did you think? If you haven't read it and can handle a rather bleak tale, I highly, highly recommend it.
2. I have a cold. Yuck. I hate being sick. I am sick more frequently after having a kid. :(
3. Woops. M. is up from a nap. Be back later.
*hugs*
if you're in the mood to read more speculative fiction, i highly recommend margaret atwood's oryx and crake. also a fast and absorbing read.
feel better fast!

The Road is on my to-be-read list.
Glad your computer issues are fixed.
I have not read The Road but I do love me some apocafic. *adds to list of things to read* Sorry you're feeling icky, hon. :(
How did babyproofing the house go?
Babies do tend to drag down one's immune system (lack of sleep). Try drinking lots of ginger tea to build yourself up. And... you know... sleep.
Sorry to hear about the cold. That was me last week. It was just a cold but, man, I felt like death warmed over. Get over it soon!!!
Hope you feel better soon. Having a cold must suck.
cold: sounds crappy ( feel better!!!!)
you being back: =)
