Evidently my immune system didn't want to feel left out

[slipjig3]

Every winter I have this respiratory thing where the inevitable runny nose that lasts a week turns into a raking cough that lasts for two months. That started revving up within the last few, and I was just starting to settle into the been-ther-done-that-ness of it all when my body's disease centers, apparently jealous over the influenza kerfuffle in Boston, decided to kick into overdrive, which is why I'm typing this flat on my back, hoping to dodge the Vomit Train and relying on my memory of the QWERTY keyboard because the dizzy spells are preventing me from focusing properly. Pleh.

I did, however, achieve a Grownup Milestone today by scheduling my very own meeting at work, complete with Microsoft Outlook invites. Yay, said Pinocchio, now I'm a real corporate drone! The meeting actually served its purpose well, which was to give us (read: me) a better grasp on work prioritization so we (read: I) don't have to go through a repeat of the last few days and its endless emails on how badly I borked up my TPS reports. Another yay for productivity (read: absence of bullshit)!

And with that, I'm going to stare at the insides of my eyelids for a while. Be good to each other.

You should consider Airborne or Cold-Eeze or some sort of immune system booster thingy.

Yeah, don't ask me what they are....I'm sick with something. :/

Get better soon. It sounds like you have chronic bronchitis; you might want a medical person to look at that some year. I have had; is no fun.
