fantastic!
Jul. 6th, 2009 11:00 pmWant to know what Earth TV broadcasts various extrasolar systems have received by now?
With bonus fun commentary.
"40 Eridani, the system containing the planet Vulcan, has not yet seen the final episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation (and have no idea what JJ Abrams has planned for them).
Aldebaran will not learn of its own part in Ursula LeGuin's The Lathe of Heaven for over forty years.
Regulus is the site of the Earth Alliance's first extrasolar colony, but it will be well over sixty years before they receive Babylon 5 and find that out."
Check it out, it's awesome. ♥
...Also, blast, I just had my first heart-flippy-thing in almost a year. I'd forgotten how uncomfortable those things are. I haven't even had any caffeine today, damn it, and I'm not stressing at all! Poo. I'm going to go have some water, take my baby aspirin, and go to bed.

Were you given similar instructions for whenever your ticker tocks? In any case, I hope you're feeling better this morning. :)

Since our understanding at the time was that caffeine and stress were the root of all trouble, the only instructions I was given were to avoid those to the extent that I have been, to make sure I stay hydrated, and to take a baby aspirin a day as a preventive.
I'm pretty sure last night was a dehydration thing... I realized after it happened that I hadn't had anything to drink since I'd been at work, so I downed a nice big glass of water before bed, and am feeling no ill effects now. I'm definitely keeping low on caffeine today and making sure I drink lots of water, just to be sure.

I hope your un-fun-ness turns out okay!!!

My un-funness is largely over, thanks. :)
