i’ve been home sick today (not with infectious stomach parasites like some of my ugandan-travel-mates, rather what i have dubbed a “fire breathing demon baby” that has taken residence in my throat). i have left my bedroom once to get soup and that is it. no energy.
yet still needing to kind of function for a conference call at 4 pm today.
here’s what that looked like.
i can honestly say i have never had a conference call in sweats with a cat sleeping on me.
and i must be so overridden with ick that i am actually posting that photo….? with no makeup? eek.
anyway…
i’ve been playing around on twitter a lot today. so…if you tweet, add me!

Awww – your conference call looks — laid back? sorry couldn’t resist.
Gargle with saline water, stay hydrated and we believe that very spicy foods help burn out the germs – at least that’s my story and I’m stickin’ to it! Nice cat –
Fire Breathing Demon Babies must be doing a lot of traveling lately. Those little pieces of crépe stayed with us a few weeks back.
Holla back ata twit will ya? http://twitter.com/DetzelPretzel
Burning throat and a fever? Sounds like strep to me! Go get some meds!
Been following your tweets for sometime now….hope you feel better.
Hmmm…cat person eh?
Changes a lot.
I hope that you can get rid of the fire breathing demon baby soon. I hear they are hard to get rid of once they take residence. Kind of like smokers.;)
Feel better!
Your cat looks like Shawn’s…what is his name?
It’s everywhere! Yuck! Go to the Doc and Get rest! At least it’s not the “fire booty demon baby” thats hitting Tennessee…the runs for 6-10 days! Can you say NASTY!
You look like Britney in this photo. Sorry. Even though Britney is a beautiful girl, I don’t know if you regard that as a compliment. It’s just that I thought you were posting a photo of Britney. Spears, that is.
sorry, pal! definitely will be praying for a quick return to health. :)
how’s the new crib?
I have enjoyed your twitterisms the last couple of days…hoping that dragon gets exterminated soon!!
I am amazed at your ability to have a sense of humor (and be able to blog), when you feel cruddy. I said a prayer for you.
Were you and Scott Williams at the same meeting lately he is super sick too. I hope you get better soon
I know exactly how you feel (minus the cat – he hides under the bed). I’ve got the same yuck, my 4 year old has a sinus infection and my 3 year old has strep throat. The wife is fine – except for taking care of all of us that is. Feel better soon!
I can’t imagine your email backlog now. Hope at least my email will get answered before 2009 LOL.
Pretty much everybody I know got some kind of flu/cold (including me) and it’s a pretty bad one too. There’s an article saying that current flu immunization doesn’t work either.
