Sick!

Well, now we've really done it.  I got the cold/flu M had/has, so we're a fine pair, sniffling and coughing, our house a total pit because we can't care for each other or even ourselves.  This is the worst, I tell ya. The worst.  *frowny face*

Naturally I've been desperately trying to distract myself from the grotesqueness that is my own existence (how can there BE so much mucus?), but sometimes it's like Netflix doesn't even know who I am...  I watched Catherine Breillat's Bluebeard, which was weird and interesting but not the feminist tour de force I was expecting.  We watched 21 Jump Street, which, I hardly need to tell you, was absolutely terrible.  I rewatched A Very Long Engagement - had theory that crying would help my head feel better, but it didn't.  I watched a bunch of 30 Rocks - theory that laughter is best medicine is also total shite.  Finally remember the masses of British crime dramas with leading ladies and that's helped a bit.  Unfortunately I haven't done much of anything for the past 5 days but lay on the couch surrounded by a pile of cast of tissues, moaning and occasionally watching television.  Again, you can imagine me frowning.  So, if you have any streaming suggestions, please...  And, if you feel like coming to our house in a hazmat suit, we'd be much obliged.
