Sick :( And the lost city of El Dorado (Day #5 January 13, 2013)

Feeling worse today than I did yesterday, it was horrific!! To have that burning sensation in your chest when you want to cough something up, like the green mucus that lurks in the bottom of your throat waiting to be depleted, but it just won't come out unless you push for it? And then, when you push for it, all at the same time it hurts too much to push because while these motions are taking place they give you an even worse burning sensation along with frustration. And now as I sit at work, 10pm at night, I feel as though my body is extremely weak and it could collapse at any given moment. This definitely sucks!!! I have tried to drink water all day, enough to where you pee it all out and get rid of your sickness, which you're supposed to do right when you start feeling the sickness arise so you don't get sick! This works every time I take action on it and pee, pee, pee when I start getting the scratchy throat, or runny nose. Tomorrow is a day off and rest I shall all day, that is until LyLy and I go and see 'Gangster Squad.'Going to a movie while your sick is just as much the same thing as sitting on your couch and watching movies, except for the fact that I could possibly get someone else sick in the process, but then again I try and avoid all situations that could even possibly get someone else sick because to have someone else suffer because you were to eager to leave your house isn't fair to them; even if you don't know or don't care. Avoid it!!

I saw the new wave of technology on BBC network this evening as my girlfriend LyLy pointed out to me a new touch screen device, like that of the iPad, or tablet, that has a new function of an actual keyboard to forms INTO the screen when you pull it up!! No Shit!!! Something to do with the micro fibers and conbustulator exemtron fibulator and flux cepasator. Language I do not quite understand in technology...but it looked really awesome and should be mass produced (the gentlemen said) late this year or early 2014. 

A much more interesting thing that caught my eye on the BBC website, along with the up and coming technology of the year was an article on that of the lost city of gold. Or also known by the Conquistadors as El Dorado. They have shown historical writings and findings to prove that this is no longer an actual city within the amazon or anywhere near it. But instead, it is an actual person, or man. This was an ancient Mayan king who would, in the morning on his awake, cover, or bathe himself in gold and wash it off in the river or lake in the evening. El Dorado, according to Dr. Jago Cooper, is a mythical city that is in fact a myth and was an actual human being bathed in gold that the Mayan people took note of and quite a fascination with. 

What about the lost city of Atlantis? Which direction in mythical outcomes will this story take? If it is even a myth at all? Was it actually a type of island surrounded by water that had a constructive and prominent aqueduct system, making the ancient people think the city was 'under' water, when in fact it was surely above and only consisted of a highly technologically developed water system? I don't know? But, I do know that whatever may come of the lost city of Atlantis, or any other lost city for that matter, is that when our people in history wrote about these places, cities and adventures, they had reasoning beyond imagination to write what they did. You read the historical knowledge that's out there, or travel the world and decided for yourself what's imaginative and considerable, no ones stopping you ;)
