Necreavit
Bad idea number 1: When you are aware you've got the tickly start of a cold, and your immune system's down this week anyway, spend an entire day sitting in front of an open window during a hurricane. Then spend the next day wandering around outside by the swollen creek *in the rain*.
Bad idea number 2: When you finally have sense enough to come in, and, as the next step in your annual back-to-school cold, are beginning to develop a headache, spend an hour and a half staring at a computer screen trying to come up with an alternate, all-French anagram of Tom Marvolo Riddle.
When you suck at anagrams.
And can't speak French anyway.
(vol d'or de la mort is the closest vaguely grammatical one I came up with, but it leaves me with a mi I can't get rid of. Golden flight of semi-death? And dormi is tempting but I'm not convinced it's a real word.)
Bad idea number 3: As compensation, eat nothing all day but chocolate.
I think I shall make some tea. Yes. Tea is good.
