Still got the flu, worked from home again today. I’m really done with this crap. I can tell I’m on the mend enough that instead of simply feeling miserable, I’m getting very grumpy. Probably from being couped up for so long. This evening there was a lunar eclipse. I went out and snapped a few photos… as many as my sick would allow, and included the sharpest one from shortly after the last sliver of light vanished. I snapped a few as the sunlight reappeared, however, this photo turned out better. Wish I had a better camera.

Still sick with flu. I hate this. Yesterday I came home early from work which turned out to be a really good thing, as around 4pm my fever & sweats returned. Since then, it’s been another round of aches, stuffy head, and more fever (with some scratchy, watery eyes thrown in to make my misery complete).
Today I worked from home. Spent as much time in front of the computer screen as I thought I should before sitting down in front of the TV and dozing off for a bit.
I’m really done with this junk. I want to be well. Now. Argh.
Sicky: update
Walked with Kelly to the hardware store (about a 2 mile round trip) since it was such a nice day, stopping by M & B’s on the way back. After getting home we got to trimming and pruning. Nearly all the roses are cut back, as well as a bunch of other plants. There are 4 bags of debris sitting on the curb. Hooray. However, I’m not 100% sure all that activity was a good thing yet. I know I’ll be more achy tomorrow, I just hope the other symptoms aren’t worse.

Still feeing a bit ill, though it’s not as bad as it could be. I think I’m either fighting it off successfully, or I didn’t get the same flu that many of my coworkers had gotten. The symptoms are a dull headache, sore throat and nasal congestion (pretty light on all three), a slight cough, and an occasional fever. There are times when I feel nearly 100%, and others where I feel 60%. If that makes any sense.
Yesterday, during one my my better moments I ran to the store to pick up more cold medicine and something for dinner (fixin’s for a reuben sandwich, which sounded really good in my sick state). Last night Kelly and I watched a lot of stuff off the DVR, including all 3 new episodes of Lost, and the rest of the season of Psych. Lost is good, and I’m really waiting for the next couple to find out… er… nevermind, won’t sway it, I’m sure some of you reading haven’t seen ’em yet. Anyway.
Today’s beautiful out. Kelly said she wanted to go out and spend time in the yard. I do too, so I may bundle up a bit and see if some time outside will do me good. Even if I don’t do much, just being outside in the warm-ish sunny weather will be nice.
You see it?
So a few weeks ago when the news of Heath Leger’s death hit the interwebs, and the news of whatever oddness between he, the maid, and Mary-Kate Olsen surfaced, ABC News.com posted a photo of Heath and MK side by side. I saw the photo and immediately thought of how creepy MK looked, and how similar to someone else, though I couldn’t place it.
I saved the photo and then waited for my brain to turn over. Finally it hit me… in the photo she looked like Sally from Nightmare Before Christmas.
C’mon, you see it right? CRRREEEEEEEPYYYYY
PS: I feel sick right now, might be coming down with a flu, so perhaps the above isn’t as funny as I think. Going to hop my bus home now, and then go to bed…
