I was ill. Big cold, fever for a couple of days. Not fully fixed yet, still bunged up. I had to miss my grandfather’s funeral because of the need to catch up on work. Grr.

The sun’s up to something. Ever since I watched 2010, the solar system sometimes really badly gives me the creeps. Being on Earth is like running and hiding under my duvet. It’s no help at all, but at least I’m not suspended in the cold nothing staring at a sun that is trillions and trillions times bigger than me and pissed off.
