summer colds 2

evening update:
I am too weak and too tired to go to the store for juice.
I called in today and my boss suggested (in a demanding sort of way) that I invest in Vitamin C. I nod - sure. I hang up the phone and quickly pass out from the excessive amt of OTC drugs I believed to heal me. Darn you Zicam!!! Darn you for robbing me of mobility today!
So now I am slightly awake, still sick but not in any mood to go to a store! Not even a scrapbook store, which would be located right next door to the juice place, to wave my 50% coupon in the cashiers face.

Well luck me: I have TANG in the cabinet. Well, you may also ask yourself "Who drinks TANG these days". I reply, those same pesky kids who charmed us into drinking YOOHOO's. ANyway, turns out TANG has some form of Vit.C.

Yea for powdered drinks favored by Astronauts!!! ('cause that's what Im gonna be when I grow up...)
I can stay in, drink tang in my cotton underwear & get better!
whoo hoo : )

I declare, I have been mpre ill here than I have in my entire life. Must be that darn Potomac river.

summer colds

I hate going to work sick <frown>
it only extends my recovery time <sigh>
"summer not feeling so well's" are no fun. Esp @ the end of the season. Makes me think fall is right around the bend...

Lucky!!!

Lucky me has been home all week with what appears to be the flu! ick!!!
Being home everyday does seem kinda boring. I guess every other day would be better. Nevertheless, endless hours of sleep, and tv and oh yeah, the medicines, have worn me out! All of the shows on tv are centered around family gatherings, being Turkey season and all...
I don't have any family around and it makes it worse to have to nurse yourself back to health. wah, wah, wah.

So I tried to go to work today but only made it half way down the street before I had to turn around and ended up getting more nutrients from the local food gallery.
After arriving @ the grocers, I discover that they deliver now! I could have stayed in and ordered my theraflu, lemons, & soup online. ALways seen in hindsight I tell 'ya!
Well, $58.17 later & I am still not feeling that much better. I doubt the delivery of health aids would have made me better; just perhaps saved me a penny or two from randomly picked up items - all due to a certain dizzy effect going on in my head.

Turn's out a couple of my friends here also have taken ill also! we have theories: 1 being a poorly ventilated dancing establishment we all attended together; 2 being hot weather, cold weather; 3 being just plain luck of the season!

The sucky part of it really is that this was the last week I would spend in my current work building. I have made a lot of connections/acqaintances here. I would have like to say goodbye to the folks for I will miss greeting them on a daily basis.
Monday I am back out in the boondocks again!
1) 1.5hr commute on Le Metro!!!
2) less sleep
3) less partying (on the weekdays)
4) boringville!!!!
