The World according to Dizzo...

[dizzojay]

So, I've been slowly easing myself back into real life following Jus ins Bello, and not being helped at all by a dose of concrud which seems to be moving around between my nose, my throat and my ears with carefree abandon.  Today is the first day this week I haven't come home from work with a thumping earache in one or both ears, and I have a really dry cough and sore throat which comes and goes as it chooses.

I went to the docs yesterday, mostly to address the earache, and got some antibiotic eardrops, together with an anaesthetic spray for my throat.

So, yes - feeling a little better today - at least no earache, and I'm counting that as a massive WIN.  My ears still feel muffled and are inclined to pop occasionally - it feels like they never got off the plane - but things are definitely moving in the right direction!

In other news, I had a lovely fangirls get together in my hometown, London with sasha_dragon and chellexxx last weekend.  Because I'm an awesome friend - and a professional bad influence - I took them to Hamleys, the Rolls Royce of Toy Shops ... seven floors of fandom fun and fangirl regression!  As you can imagine, we were a picture of dignity and decorum in there.  I'm looking forward to catching up with them again in a few weeks at Crossroads Con.

Finally, it's been a nice week on the whole, so Mr D and I have been enjoying a few evenings sitting out in the garden after work.  (You can tell I'm not firing on all cylinders - in all those evenings, I haven't fancied one single glass of wine!)

While he was out in the garden, Mr D found a sink plunger in the back of his shed.

What's a man to do when he finds a sink plunger ...?

Why, play daleks of course!!



What?  Who said unblock the sink????
I mean, really...!

Funny! :D I consider myself a professional bad influence too

[dizzojay.livejournal.com]

Everyone needs a bad influence!

[akalablossom.livejournal.com]

For sure.

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

But of course! It's a universal rule isn't it? Plungers=daleks!

[dizzojay.livejournal.com]

Absolutely - the same way fluorescent tubes = lightsabres!

I'm sorry you've been hit by a nasty bout of con-crud, but this made me giggle - You can tell I'm not firing on all cylinders - in all those evenings, I haven't fancied one single glass of wine! - as it's how I know when Bren's not well! And it's like Dean not eating pie!!!

I can see that Mr D is also a model of dignity and d-e-c-o-r-u-m!!

I made up for it over the weekend :D
Mr Dizzo is very dignified and - uh - decorumfied!

Ah, con crud. You know I only got hit with that once in all my times of attending VanCon? I've got a good immunity system, thank goodness. *knocks on wood*
Hope your'e feeling better soon! *hugs*

I should have a good immune system because I take a multivitamin every morning, but apparently concrud is immune to vitamin C - this is my third dose in a year!
Thank you, I am feeling much better :)

Hope you feel better soon ♥♥

Hemley's is the BEST SHOP EVER! I try to avoid it.

Your hubby's such a dork, you should keep him in your pocket, someone may try to steal him :)

I'm feeling much better thank you - and yes, I agree with your assessment of Hamleys AND Mr D!

Perhaps the first time in history a dalek was ever
considered medicinal.

Well, Dalek Dizzo was certainly more friendly than Dalek Sek, Dalek Caan, Dalek Thay and Dalek Jast!!
