today is one of those days, or tonight is one of those nights, rather... when i'll sleep neckid with the fans on me.
thursday morning i woke up with the beginnings of a sore throat. it's progressed from there, and today i have:
low-grade fever (99.5 and i'm usually around 97.1 -- hey, cool, those are both metroplex radio station frequencies!)
sore throat
total body achiness
sinus infection.
not a great time for this, as i have a bunch of people coming to pack my uhaul friday night and am way behind on packing. ain't life fun.
in other news, i got some fan-mail recently from a guy i hung out with in college; tonight i picked him up from the airport (he was passing through) and we had dinner. it was lots of fun playing catch-up, yay for IMAO contests! we got to laugh about old times and uncomfortable moments (which he was sure i would have forgotten by now -- come on, i'm a chick!!), and i (upon my request, actually) learned lots about the Air Force. it's really nice to rekindle old friendships, and it doesn't hurt when those friendships are with hot guys who are great huggers and at least as sarcastic as myself. :D not that any of that matters.
did i mention that i feel miserable? ugh. wah. ugh. wah. wah. wah. wah. you get the picture. wah.
Sleeping nekid with the fans on you? I'm a fan, but don't know if my wife will let me sleep on you or not. I'll call her and ask. Get well soon.

ROFL. that is perhaps the funniest comment i've gotten, kingslasher. most inappropriate, too, but funniest.
i love it when i set myself up like that.
and thanks for the well wishes.

Okay, here's what you do... Go to the health food store and buy some oregano oil and those empty gelatin capsules. Fill the capsules with the oil and take 3 a day. It will kill ANY germ you may have!! I'm serious!! You will have some nasty Italian burps but it's worth it.

Well, you're effusive with your compliments. But I'd say you're a little stingy with the linking.

jonag, i'll think about trying your recipe; come to think of it, i don't eat as much spaghetti these days, and i've been sick more... you might be on to something. thanks!
"hugger", you're not effusive with yours! yes, i am stingy with my links. but if you'll look to the left under "you can call me al", i believe that's your site. :P
