Look Mum no wires!

I am writing this on my laptop with its new wireless LAN card. It's talking to my new WiFi router, which is connected to the broadband arial on the roof. That talks to the transciever on the roof of a building in the town and gives me 512K of high-speed internet access.

In other news, poor Angie has come down with chicken pox, and is feeling miserable. I took the day off work, mostly to keep Jack out of her hair, and am now thoroughly knackered. I think she has a much harder job than I do.

EEp. [hugs] to Angie. I presume that you've had it already...?

[lostcarpark.livejournal.com]

I have, but so has she...

Chicken Pox as an adult is not pleasant. I had it at age 17... ps it would probably be good for Jack to get it too since I guess he hasn't yet.

Best wishes.

But I thought that you could only get it once?

Poor Angie, I really hope she starts feeling better soon.

That's the theory, but not everyone follows the rules. I guess it could be a slightly different strain that she's not managed to get immune to.

Angie had it as a child. Then she got it again two years ago when Jack got it (though quite mildly that time). So this is actually the third time. Jack seems to have been a little under the weather (though it doesn't seem to have any effect on his energy levels), but doesn't seem to have any chicken pox symptoms.
