Alone, ill and bored - again

Yesterday evening and today I've felt like my head's filled with play-doh. It appears to be be greenish/yellowish in colour and rather flexible in consistency. I've read from somewhere that this 'thing' coming out of my sinuses is just dead white blood cells. Hopefully I won't run out too soon because the same publication claimed that they are supposed to be quite essential for my well-being.

As I mentioned yesterday, I've also been particularly bored at work recently. This made me wonder if this play-doh like goo could be used for boredom relief. Obviously that's not very practical, unless you want to smear your keyboard/rat/screen combo in snot and I guess that I should think of my colleagues health as well. I'm sure they wouldn't appreciate having this very same feeling tomorrow morning. Not that I care too much really, it's the cleaning operation of the means of production that I'm worried about...

To make things even worse when I'll reach home after work, I've been left on my own. My better half jetted to Oxbridge world to deliver a speech about 'quadripartite nature of strong structuration' and 'Mexican indigeneous people', or something like that. Sounds so fancy, doesn't it? What it is really about and how those two very remotely sounding entities come together, I shall leave to those who hold the knowledge to decide.

Anyway, it's quite nasty to be home alone and semi-ill. I'm also expecting this feeling to develop into full-grown flue shortly. My head is already showing signs of that. Few days on the sofa watching sports? Nah, I guess I'd rather go to work...

I better stop whining before I get told to shut up. Maybe the play-doh will change colour later so that I could try to create more varied things from it.
