I don't know what I did to anger the fates, but I'm sick AGAIN!  *shakes fists at sky*  Same thing - the horrible flu-like chest cold OF DEATH.

Unfortunately, I can NEVER take a day off work because we're so short staffed that even one person gone is a huge burden - and I always open/close alone, so if I'm not there, it's a huge PITA.  Might as well come in and do the best I can while my corpse is still warm and twitching.

However, I can take NyQuil without too many ill effects.  The stuff makes me super-anxious for some reason - maybe the pseudoephedrine does that?  Probably should call the doctor so he can run some tests, since I've not gotten 100% better since I got sick on Christmas Day.

I hate being sick - I take my vitamins, I have a good immune system, I work around diseased children and germy books all the time - bah!

ANYWAY, I've been staying up late to watch Jon and Stephen try their hands at being one-man shows.  Jon I had no qualms about - anyone who's seen him unscripted knows he is best off-the-cuff.  Stephen is struggling, probably because he is much more constrained by the need to stay in character.

Also, I am conflicted about watching when the WGA strike is still ongoing.  Even existential guilt is annoying.  Hm.

Oh noes!!! Are we still getting together? It's okay if you need to cancel because of ickies. I will not be upset!!

[quidditchgrrl.livejournal.com]

Nope, I will be there, around 6 or so, if that's okay.

I'm not contagious at this point, and I'll be chock-full of cold meds. See you tonight! :)

Sounds good, are we still doing sushi because I'll make the reservation.

[quidditchgrrl.livejournal.com]

Sushi sounds good to me!

[rlanto.livejournal.com]

The best reservation I could get is at 530 - I have no problems heading down early and holding the table.

[quidditchgrrl.livejournal.com]

That should be okay...I have to wait for the roofing guy at the Lodge and I should be out of there by 4-4:30 at the very latest.

Where are we going for sushi?

Yep, you should definitely see a doctor - you've been sick for too long now. *hugs* Hope you feel better soon.

I'm not watching Leno now because the strike continues. But I prefer Letterman's brand of humor anyway.

Poor baby! I hope that you feel better soon.

Those kids carry some mutant shit. I'm only ever sick in the summer because I do art camp.

I hope you are feeling better! :(

You aren't whining, btw. Whining has a much more nasal tone.

Maybe you can take your revenge by breathing extra on annoying people while you might be contagious?

How long has NyQuil made you super-anxious? They changed the formula a couple of years ago to take out the psudoephedrine. Just recently they came back out with the original formula but you have to ask the pharmacist for it. The stuff you can just get off the shelf has the same ingredient as Sudafed PE (Phenylephrine) which is supposed to act the same, but doesn't really work for me.
