Thoughts on the Day

  • Not sure what evolutionary niche influenza virus sits in, but I hope it’s a damn uncomfortable one.
  • When you can’t taste anything, canned chicken soup is nothing but a mouthful of lukewarm grease.
  • For once I got to sleep 16 hours straight, but I had fever dreams about high school all night long.
    • There is no justice.
  • Doctor says I should spend the entire week in bed.  We’ll see how this goes.
  • One of the few benefits of being locked away from the family so I don’t infect them is that I can watch some of the movies I normally can’t.
    • Falling asleep while watching “Greg the Bunny” makes for some really cool dreams.
  • For some reason Girlie Bear’s geography class spent today talking about my hometown in North Dakota.
    • Who knew Berthold was such an interesting place?
  • Irish Woman appears to have gotten her bedside manner from Nurse Ratched.
    • Actually, that’s probably the best way to be when I’m not feeling well.  I’m not exactly a cooperative patient, and a sharp word here and there prods me into necessary action.
  • Extra spicy chicken pad thai seems to be what it takes to break through to my taste buds.
  • ZZZZZZZ

    re: chicken noodle soup

    If you can’t taste it, then you either didn’t put enough garlic in it or enough hot sauce in it. Sounds like you figured that out with the Pad Thai.

    We seem to have *crossed fingers* missed that contagion, and hope you get well soon.

      I’m glad to hear that Wing. I was worried that I might have passed it on not knowing that I even had it.

      Thanks!

    Hubby always goes for spicy Chinese food when his head starts filling.

    However, this time, he’s got a gen-yoo-wine infection in his head. He was very disappointed that he couldn’t even taste his creamsicle ice cream tonight.
