Sicko
I feel like I'm about to vomit. I'm so afraid I could be getting the flu. It started on Thursday. I can't afford to have the flu. I really don't like the idea of having to call in tomorrow if I get worse. I'm not sneezing or anything so I hope I'm not contagious. I did disinfect the desk I worked at today so that I wouldn't get the person that sits there tomorrow sick. I really think it was just a matter of time before I got sick at the hospital. The air is pretty bad in the call center and I think it is the ideal condition for spreading stuff around. I always feel like it is really humid the air and it makes my throat hurt. After I leave I feel like my whole body is coated in something greasy.

Please don't be sick...I need to work! I have not called in yet, and I really want to keep it that way.

At least I can be relieved to know that I have health insurance. Anybody have a doctor recommendation? Someone that doesn't just write prescriptions, cares about my wellness and is thorough? If this doctor exists, is it too much to hope that they are accepting new patients?

Now I am going to eat some food even though I think it could push me over the edge. I'm kind of wanting to just get that over with if it is going to happen and I really haven't eaten yet today. I can't remember the last time puking.

Hey take care of yourself and feel better, okay? *hug*
james - 01/06/08 17:02
If your fever is under 100 then you are free to go into work, according to some lame story I half listened to on NPR.

Feel better soon.
fellyconnelly - 01/06/08 16:19
awww lots of fluids and lots of rest and feel better soon!
libertad - 01/06/08 15:57
Your right (e:paul). I really wouldn't want that to happen...maybe I should get the flu shot in the future?
paul - 01/06/08 15:00
Get well soon. I would not go into work if you are sick though. Think of all the immuno-compromised people that could get sick with the flu if you were near them.

Saturated Fat binge and purge
Yay the holidays are over! I'm sitting at my desk with nothing to do on my lunch. Too cold to go outside, too boring to sit in cafeteria. Does anyone know if Roswell has a work out place or something for peoples lunch breaks? I really would like to do some cardio on lunch rather than be as (e:mrdeadlier) has coined a "fatty mcfatfat"! I'm sick of eating cakes and cookies and chocolates and more fat and more fat...i just wanna be lean and mean. Instead my ass is planted in this chair and the only time I get to move is in the gym which closes early because of the holidays when I need it the most. Stupid Holidays.

Thanks for the New Years Party (e:pmt). I would have liked to unwrap the gift that was on your couch that I saw in (e:metalpeter)'s pics. Great to see (e:ladycroft)! What a great surprise.

I'm looking forward to many changes in 2008!

BRRRR it is cold outside.

That's all.

Duh, just g et an elliptical for your spacious office! You can find them on Craigslist, but they are sold under furniture as they are exclusively used as clothing racks.

Normal hours are just a few weeks away.
museumchick - 01/02/08 18:49
Happy New Year! I hope it will be a great year for you.
metalpeter - 01/02/08 18:14
It is really cold out there, I froze today. You would think that them being such a big place would have some kind of machines to help keep their workers healthy but a lot of places don't. Here is an idea if you are paid for a certain amount of Hours (this only works if you don't clock in and out) work through lunch and leave a half hour early. With Roswell there and The hospital and the medical Campus I think a good Idea would be some kind of gym that was used for all those places employees only. Or it would be public and as a benefit you would get a card that you could use it from two hours before your work time to two hours afterwards or something like that.

I really want to get an elliptical machine, but almost everyone I know who gets one ends up using it as a $1000 clothing rack.
janelle - 01/02/08 16:25
Get an elliptical machine and then you don't have to worry about when the gym closes. We love ours.
I got back to the cardio this weekend. All I want to eat is vegetables and fruit after so much meat and sweets.

Mike's accident and girl with bag.
I kind of consider this our first snow. Not sure if it is or not. Picture taken 12/16. It kind of felt like the first real snow to me.

Here is (e:mike)'s accident photos. It was a good thing that (e:paul) took pictures too, or else it would have taken you this long to see anything.

Poor Mikey. Look how sad he looks.

This is where it shows his car being towed away. Good bye nice car with the heated seats.....I'll miss you.

Much like the flag in the star spangled banner, your photos gave proof through the night that the estrip bumper magnet was still there!

One week of dust
This is gross. I just dusted last Sunday. My DVD player is right next to the air vent. I'm going to get a new air filter as soon as I can. This is just not right. I was told that I shouldn't have to worry about getting a new filter, that someone would take care of it, but clearly this is wrong.

I just put vent filters on my registers. You are so lucky if you have radiators rather than forced air that comes from your nasty basement.
mike - 12/16/07 17:25
wowser! Radiator heat is so much better! I wish I had it!
