I have a cold!! I hate colds and especially I hate summer colds. I took yesterday and the day before off work and lay around reading and eating chocolates. I figured that Mrs Horton could do a bit of work for a change instead of constantly carping at me. I really should find myself another job but, except for Mrs Horton, I really enjoy working at the library; there are heaps of books and I get to meet some very nice people.
Over the last two days I've read a couple of Dan Brown books. I read The Da Vinci code a while ago and thought that it was pretty awful so I can't imagine why I thought that I'd enjoy Digital Fortress and Angels and Demons. Angels and Demons was particularly dreadful but at least has the advantage of being reasonably topical, what with the Pope being so ill. Nobody is about to murder him, of course, but ...
Nothing else to write about - I haven't been feeling all that good so I haven't been doing anything interesting. Robert heard that I was sick and came around with flowers and - would you believe - chicken soup. I nearly cracked up but decided that his heart was in the right place even if it wasn't pure. He kept his distance though; probably didn't want to catch my cold.
