Pumpkin 1: Emily 0.

Number of pumpkin based injuries: 1.

The virus is still with me and I've been off work, again. I feel a lot better than I did, but still not right. However, I'm getting very bored and daytime tv just isn't what it used to be.

Determined not to waste a good pumpkin, I had a go at carving it today. It didn't really turn out how I imagined, its a lot harder than I thought it'd be too. I slipped with the knife and went straight into the palm of my hand. I blame the virus mostly, wish it would sod off! I think I need to go back to work if this is what I've resorted to spending my days doing.

Belated Hallowe'en to you all. I don't think I'll be celebrating it again, especially not if I'm left scarred!
