So friday I found out that my pneumonia wasn't getting better and ended up on bed rest. I'm going to work tomorrow, but I can only do half days the first couple of days and I'm supposed to try to stay stress-free. Ha, ha, HA. I think my boss is going to take that part harder than the half days, which I know will go over *so* well.

Stupid pneumonia. It couldn't have come at a worst time and I have so much to do and so much for no stress. I'm stressing out about not stressing.

Le sigh.

Please send Winchesters to rock salt things that annoy me and make out on command.

Anyway, I spent most of my weekend sleeping. I've been awake for only a few hours over the past forty-eight hours. Logically, I know that's good for my illness and getting better, but I can't remember the last time I accomplished anything. I don't even want to look at my laundry pile.

In other news, I dvr'd a Harry Dresden movie on Sci Fi. It has the people from the show, but I'm trying to figure out if this was made before the show and I just never saw it, or it came after the show and they're going with movies based on the actual books. Because this one would make sense to come before the show as it explains so much more and is really based on Storm Front. Anyone else seen this and/or know what's going on? And will there be more based on the books?

That would be awesome. Part of the reason I never got into the series was the first couple of episodes didn't really feel like the books (though I love the casting of Harry - so hot!)

I am on an audiobook kick. So rec me some of your favorite audiobooks that I can look into getting from the library or other nefarious sources.

Bleh, I hope your boss tries to remember you're extremely ill and still coming into work.

BTW, that was the unaired pilot of the Dresden series. As soon as it got cancelled, sci-fi and space channel aired this "pilot".

Ahhh...good to know. They should've gone with this as the pilot. I enjoy it more.

And yeah, I hope my boss keeps that in mind. I think it's just horrible timing as we're down an admin assistant already so...ugh.

The movie was supposed to be the pilot for the Dresden Files until it was cut down to one hour and aired out of order on the show.

Hugs. I hope you get better soon.

The first Dresden File book, Storm Front, was read by James Marsters. I've been dying to hear it myself. You might take a look for that one.

I have nothing useful for you in the way of Winchesters or recs, but I expect a hug will come in handy just the same. Consider it done.

Oh no! I'll just have to email you some soup. *nods* What? I can't email soup? Since when? That's an outrage! I must find a way to digitize soup! To the laboratory! *races off with wild scientist hair*

... or, you know ... *hugs*

I'm totally in love with Phillip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy (The Glden Compass/The Subtle Knife/The Amber Spyglass) audiobooks. Phillip Pulman's a fantastic narrator and they had a whole cast of voice actors playing the various parts. It's just like listening to an old school radio drama. I wore my ipod to work for a week while I was going through them.
