I am not an animal!

Still not sleeping great. I blame this bloody cold. And then, of course, I continue to get more and more run down, so it takes longer for me to get better. I'm getting some very odd cravings - I tend to go with them when I've got a cold, since I trust my body to crave what it needs - baked fish and a whole heap of cabbage were order of the day yesterday. But this morning I fancied Lemon Curd and Battenburg cake, and I don't even like Battenburg!

I now have two styes - one in each eye. The left one is bloody huge and making my vision weird. They're both really sore and hot and making my eyes all sticky. Plus they're making me look all puffy and lopsided. I now bear more than a passing resemblance to The Elephant Man.
