I am diseased.

At some point over the weekend I picked up what I can only assume to be SARS and have been feeling grotty for the last couple of days. Actually SARS is a bit last year isn't it, I should probably claim it's bird flu to look more hip with the virology crowd.

Anyway we went to see Clap Your Hands Say Yeah in Liverpool last night, I had fun despite not being able to drink or smoke and feeling a bit like someone had punched me in the throat. It was pretty busy actually, I'd been wondering how popular they'd be. Obviously they're already a bit of a cult hit in Americaland but seeing as they haven't even released their record here yet I didn't know how many other people had heard of them. Though I suppose for all I know the NME has been bigging them up or something.

I smoked a cigarette earlier today, which was stupid, I'm trying to keep off them till all the phlegm-coughing and sneezing goes away. I did get a call from the government though asking if they could rub me on a load of asthmatics and old people now that those flu jabs have run out. It's nice to be wanted.
