Excuses?

I've got good news and bad news. The bad news is I've been floored with some type of dastardly virus for the past week and a half, and the good news is my lack of appetite has helped me lose half a stone! I let out a little 'yeah' when I stepped on the scales and saw my weight was below the 'benchmark' where it has been hovering for the past year. I don't know if I should try jogging tonight - it will either sweat the last of this lethargy out of my system or kill me altogether, though I don't much fancy the prospect of the latter.
And as if I didn't need any more salt rubbed, I've also had two short story rejections. Mind you, I only wrote them for the money, so perhaps my opinion of them being sentimental 'shite' has been reflected in the fiction editor's decision too.
As for the novel, I have written a tiny bit more, until the pain in my back got too much. I think I need my daily dose of guffawing with a good old-fashioned humorous novel!
