to a great oh-eight

It's '08. Almost as easy to write as '07 since you can close the zero at the top and slide your pen to the next digit. A professional artist told me he got dizzy writing '08 for he first time yesterday. This same artist has an awesome new comic on the web at www.roundersthecomic.com.

It's updated every week, so if you're logging on for the first time, it's best to click on the home page and begin from there. It takes place in an alternate world where a violent game of baseball is the norm, and the protagonist is in love with a girl with a robot arm.

In other news, though I have an incredible immune system, I'm suddenly fighting a cough. To avoid going outside to buy medicine, I decided to mix together a bunch of recipes from a site called The Holistic Medicine Cabinet। I just downed a mug of camomile, bay leaves, nutmeg, lemon juice, sage, honey, cloves, whiskey and a cinammon stick. The site doesn't mention camomile - that was my mom's idea.
