Karno's Rare-Because-He-Never-Has-Time Blather:
Not at work today 'cause I'm probably sick with some sort of headcold. I say "probably" because the faucetnose (which has mainly cleared up, come to think of it) COULD be allergies....but the scratchy throat probably means it's a cold. One of these minor ailments that don't excuse you from any chores, they just make the day suck a bit more than normal. Ah well. At least the Marfans has the perk that I hardly ever get headaches, at least not from diseases.
But hey! Good news! The Kickstarter for my 100 1-pagers book funded! Yaaaaaaay! Although, if you want the book, I still reccomend pledging $10-up on the Kickstarter, 'cause then you're not only among the very first to get it, you also don't have to pay postage. Here: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects.....he-one-hundred
Gonna take a lot of work to get this all into your sweaty lil' hands. And I don't mind. It's something I WANNA do, which puts me one-up on people who, say, spend their lives in crappy day jobs stuffing goo into lip-balm tubes for professional ass-kissers, or some such. Just NOT being a drone is a pleasure in itself.
That said, I better get back to work. Commissions to finish, books to format. It's a good life.

If you get those with any regularity, get some Wellness Formula (from Source Natural) at your favorite health food store. Basically, it's an herbal immune system booster. I know Whole Foods will have it (on East Speedway), although they're not a store I generally favor. Take it as a once daily addition to your diet. I started 15-16 years ago and I won't stop as long as I can find it.
Before I started I spent 6 months or more of every year fighting some sort of head or chest cold. Since then, I get one maybe once every three or four years. And I have been through quite a few workplace plagues without a sniffle. It works wonderfully well for me.
It ain't cheap, but it's not outrageously expensive either. Try it, I'm pretty sure you'll like it.
For bruises and similar soft tissue issues, try arnica montana. I prefer the Hyland brand, although there's nothing wrong with Boiron. Those are the only two suppliers I know of. If you get some, try to get the 30X strength. The lower concentrations don't work as well, and hardly at all for me.
