Yes, I'm a Loser!
Yeah... what a week. Why am I a loser? I didn't make the Notable Stories in the storySouth Million Writers competition. Just kidding -- I know it was good to be nominated.
Why else am I a loser? I missed my long-awaited reunion dinner with Jen on Tuesday. This cold has lasted more than a week, and I still felt crappy Tuesday (and canceled all extracurricular activities for this week as of Tuesday when I realized I wasn't even going to make it through a full day's work, much less dinner out). I haven't done a full day's work since LAST Tuesday because of the cold. And maybe some of you have noticed that I haven't even been blogging... I've been coughing, blowing my nose constantly, and exhausted.
So, everybody, avoid getting whatever it is that's been going around, it's a killer.

Aw. Hope you feel better. I'll OD on echinacea before I catch that!
Thanks Jeff! Yeah, I'd definitely OD on echinacea, vitamin C, the works, if I were you! This bug sucks.
Well, I expect to see you 100% better this Tuesday, ma'am! Being as K is still sick, it probably worked out for the best that I was able to hang around here as shift nurse another evening. I hear vitamin E is actually better for colds than vitamin C, although I forget why (and they'll probably change that too, soon enough). Wait, vitamin C is good for colds, or was that caffeine, or maybe crack?
Poor K! It sounds like she and I have the same thing. I can't tell you how many boxes of tissues I have gone through, and these days I fully recommend Puffs with Lotion. Kleenex -- my nose was tattered. Also, for the last week, I've been a certified "mouth breather." Oh Lord, it sucks!
I will definitely be better for Tuesday -- I can't wait to see you, and I also have to add, it will be nice to see you and actually be able to carry on a normal conversation!
Ha, crack, I think, is the answer. Hee...
Hope you get better soon...too pooped on this end to write more...
I've been a slacker blogger/writing wise too. But I don't have the excuse of a germ invasion.
Feel better soon.
Thanks guys! I hope you both stay well. Germ invasion... it sucks!
