Tonight I've started karting around online in Mario Kart Wii, rarely winning but slowly improving my score above the initial 5000. Good solid fun, and the fact that you can quit after each race makes it really easy to have just one more before quitting too ...

I started feeling a bit ill on Friday, was somewhat ill during the weekend. So when I quite clearly got a fever toward the end of yesterday I started feeling worried about Saturday's intended half marathon. Ellen told me a fever means the illness is on its way out, but it's not like you really believe something like that right when you're inside the fever. Never the less, I took a painkiller before going to bed, sweated out the fever during the night, woke up before the alarm feeling well rested and by now I'm a lot closer to normal than I'd have thought 24 hours ago, and actually feeling optimistic about running on Saturday again.

It's only Tuesday, after all.

Ah Tuesday, the last day of the week when the weekend isn't just around the corner.
