Sickness is the worst!!! Cap'n Trips. Hope you feel better dude. I'm drinking Emergen-C every day till cabin con because I'm so paranoid of being sick that weekend. Let us know if you're too jacked up to run Earthdawn because I can't imagine anything funner than trying to GM a game while sick as hell.
Speaking of Captain Trips, I'm reading the latest SK novel, 11/23/60 (or whatever date JFK was killed is) - it's pretty good! I think I'm still in the beginning phases of the book, but it feels pretty promising and the concept is fun (non-spoiler short version: time travel shit).
