I have a code in my doze
It's official. Me = sick as a dog. My own stupid fault. I travel like a bastard for four months until I am worn down like an old pencil eraser...and the first day I am back, I go out and get shitfaced watching the Sox. Body depleted, wide open to a bug. Well, here it is. Stupid.

Bleagh.

This is what I get for quitting teaching. Neat little advantage to being surrounded by kids all day is that you're in a bacterial sink. My first year I caught every bug. By the time I left, I was made of iron. My system could reject any virus because I was naturally innoculated after swimming through it every day. So much for that.

:(

Achoo. Sniff.

I AM NOT, however, one of those guys who becomes a jellyfish when I get sick. Stiff upper lip, baby, even if it does have snot all over it.

The baseball playoffs actually gave me a cold. I was sick all weekend. In fact, I was so sick on Saturday night, when Pudge Rodriguez kissed Oogie Urbina at the end of Game 1, I had to rewind it on TiVo to make sure I didn't hallucinate it. Nope. It happened. How do you say "Magic and Isiah" in Spanish?

4. Soup. Soup. SOUP.
I think Chicken(noodle**) and veggie is the best for colds.

but you knew that......

Its not fun to be sick, but you'll be back in action in no time.

As long as you rest.

My dad used to say the greatest remedy for illness was rest. He was a doctor so its probably reasonable advice.

there ya have it. Soup and rest.

now get off of the computer.....

:)

10. Bless you...here have a kleenex.
Poor baby. Do we need to get Raven to fix you soup and momma you a little bit? :-)

It's very macho that you're keeping a stiff upper lip and all but don't run yourself into the ground til you get really really sick. Ok? Ok.

Anyway, consider yourself virtually tucked in and kissed on the forehead. :-) Get better.

12. your immune system is fine
For all you went through with the students, you were never exposed to European bugs, which get everyone not previously exposed.

Plus, all the other things you said weaken the immune system - fatigue. alcohol, and disappointingf baseball, lol.

But you will come out on the other side stronger than ever.

13. Alright, - that's it.


Get your butt in bed. I'm sending a thermos full of garlic soup via e-mail.

DU'ers - everyone rally 'round Will and breathe on him. He obviously doesn't know what to do with a germ anymore, and needs a short refresher course.





Feel better, Will. :hug:

"Hey Karl, do something about that Pitt guy over at truthout.org"
"Sure thing Dubya. We can make him sick. How's that?"
"Just do it, ok?"
"Consider it done"
