Winter 1, Patricia 0


Yesterday was a sad day... I took my first Lemsip of the season.

Yes, I've got a cold and feel miserable about it. I think I'm not even that sick, just incredibly annoyed. You see, I always had an very good immune system, and used to fly though winters without any serious sneezing. But now...

Last year I had the worst flu I can remember in years, the kind of lying-on-the-couch-all-day-watching-non-stop-charmed-just-because-you-don't-feel-strong-enough-to-reach-for-the-remote flu. Of course, I blame London, and this horrible lack of a decent sunny Summer.

November is too early for this, though! That's why I delayed the intake of that worderous miracle powder that is Lemsip. As I saw it, it was admiting defeat. But yesterday, I had no option. That's it, I officially have a cold. Winter wins, I lose.

acacio jeremias website

The great visionary Acácio Jeremias finally has a website of his own and it was designed by pap-L. Acácio is a hillarious character (born out of the twisted mind of Diz Que Disse's creator, André Toscano) intent on asking the questions no one has ever though about. While we wait for his book to come out, we can enjoy his video-podcasts (the title and credit sequences were designed by pap-L as well). The first one is just out, and a few more are on the way. So go there and have a laugh! (Sorry, portuguese only...)
