Glurrgghh
I've dodged the last four or five bugs that ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
aeliel has come down with, but I've managed to end up with a sinus infection all on my own. Either that or I'm experiencing the same run of illnesses, a month out of synch - in which case, I may be in for a few weeks of pain.
I can't hear or speak very well, so I spent the day shaking my fist at the monitor in silent rage. This week's work involves wrestling eleven Quark files into InDesign... tricky at the best of times, and not made easier by the hundred-odd "tables" dotted through the book. They've been built with boxes and lines, superimposed over text that was pushed into position with the spacebar and tab keys. The mind boggles...
In other news, there's apparently a photo of me wearing a skull-and-crossbones bandana in this month's No Quarter magazine. The Gencon painting contest winners are all in there, and apparently there are a couple of photos of my entry. Apparently, after four days of convention I was tired enough to let someone point a camera at me.
Also, if you own, maintain or live with a nerd (programmer or otherwise), take a look at the Nerd Handbook. You might learn something about what makes them tick...
