She&apos;s going to be there for a week or two still, but hopefully things are going to sort themselves out. It&apos;s weird though. One minute, she&apos;s cracking lewd jokes, the next, she&apos;s in the middle of a coughing fit.

And it&apos;s free, so you can&apos;t beat the price. <\/p>\n<p>Spent a large part of Saturday walking in town, while Katy and Rita were having a serious girl-talk. My plan was to go read a book I wanted to buy at Waterstones until I got called, but that went south when neither of the books I wanted were there.
