Hope you had a happy 10/10/10 everyone. :victory:

***

Had a rather... interesting weekend. :naughty:

Spoiler — click to revealWas assigned to fetch & babysit two male... performers for my friend's bridal shower. Offered them Coke and pizza in the "holding room," provided a little alcohol upon their request (to give them "courage" they said -- poor things!), and went over the song selection with them (no surprises as to what they wanted: "Careless Whisper" migawwwwwd :bleh:).

Thought I'd get squeamish dealing with them (this wasn't even my idea but my other friend's, the Maid of Honor) but I was surprised to find myself acting all brisk and matter-of-fact, i.e. "Can I get you anything else?" "The washroom is across the pool." "This way, please." All I needed was a clipboard and headset to complete the look, lol. I guess it turned out to my benefit because when it was... Showtime and the rest of the audience started screaming and laughing hysterically, I felt oddly detached throughout the whole ordeal. Good thing the two dudes pretty much left me unmolested (lol) until it was all over. (I guess a little Coke and pizza can go a long way, hah hah hah.) I honestly felt sorry for them, though. I don't know who wanted the... performance to be over more, us or them, tsk tsk. (And one of the dudes looked like a Johnny. I swear. Shoulda brought my KAT-TUN discography instead, LOL. Maybe if they had danced to that I actually would've had some fun. :mwahaha:)


The things you do for your friends... :shakehead:

I just seen this yakuza guy with mullet give his bratty son a quick jab to the back of the head. OUCH! :beaten: The look the kid gave in return was priceless.

Yeah, even though you're expecting the shift in temps around this time. It still gets to you. Of course, people around you sneezing doesn't really help. :sweat:

I wonder if having people wear masks like in Japan helps... ?

Is D3 supposed to help your immune system?

I thought it was more for arterial/circulatory health and calcium absorption.

It impacts both your immune system and your cardiovascular system. Those with higher levels of of vitamin d are less likely to contract infectious diseases such as colds or influenza.

I've read anecdotal stories of ppl treating their flus with mega vitamin D doses.
