The Friday Post [modified]

Translate Into:
After a hiatus... What are you doing this weekend? This is the fourth week this cold is persisting so I won't be doing much - start cooking again, play AoE3, and lots of rest. Since next Tuesday is a holiday and loads of people are taking Monday off, I will be the only one in my 4-member team to come in on Monday. [EDIT]Wow... tough crowd today [/EDIT]
Cheers, Vikram.
