the news in brief

the bad news: my strange disease has gone on the offensive, and now my right nostril has been running all day, making me sneeze. just the right one. i don't know why.

the strange news: my parents bought "anti-viral kleenex". it "kills 99.9% of cold and flu viruses in the tissue within 15 minutes. this product has not been tested against bacteria, fungi, or other viruses." so now i can not only get a mutated cold virus, i can get attacked by fungi while i'm at it!

the good news: pancake day dinner is success! my skill in pancakery knows no bounds, kind of like the limit of 1/x as x appraoches 0 from the right.
