The plague has mutated into a very nasty sore throat & chest cold. I feel 100X better than I did.

Due to still feeling like death, Jason & I made a commando raid to London to see the Dresden Dolls. They totally rocked and were well worth the effort. Review may follow if I ever wake up. Allegedly, there were people I knew at said event, but I had utterly under-estimated how huge and packed the venue would be, so I didn't find anybody. Given my plague-ridden status, that is probably for the best.

Need to get to the city more often - for the first time in over a week, my nose and eyes stopped running. I kid you not. I am completely urban-living evolved.

I even have delusions of going to work tomorrow. I'd better be able to, because I've already spent the money. With this no sick pay crap, I might as well be working in Canada.

How did the parking and finding food go?

I've been down with the lurgy this weekend. I think I'll be skipping work tomorrow :-/

We parked in Zone 4 near Boston Manor tube station, which was very hassle-free. The tube ride was a bit lengthy, but undoubtedly faster than driving.

The machine in the tube station gave us day passes as it was off-peak, so we cheated and ate at a random Italian restaurant in Covent Garden instead of trying to find something edible at King's Cross. It was expensive, but really good.

There is something to be said about lack of green stuff in the city to make you stuffed up. I remember that for a couple years in a row I was miserable in May when I was in Waterloo. Then I spent a May in downtown Toronto and was not stuffed up. Green space vs. concrete I guess.
