I’m currently battling what I thought on Thursday morning to be a hangover but am now discovering is just a persistent pain in the depths of my guts. It’s not horrible, just distracting, but that alone has kept me from getting a lot of work done (which is frustrating, as yesterday and today were to be work days).

Only a few things have so far taken my mind off the pain; finishing off The Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy “Trilogy” in preperation for the movie, eating hash browns and most importantly, finding used for $12 Canadian and then listening to James Brown’s 20 All-Time Greatest Hits!

Which, while not totally unexpected, is a little surprising as no other music seems to be so effective right now (certainly not the new Daft Punk). I feel as if I could cure myself just by listening to “Cold Sweat”, “Get Up (I Feel Like Being A) Sex Machine” and “The Payback” on a loop.
