Actually got OUT today, ran a few errands until I ran out of steam and baked in summer-like heat and sun like a lizard on a rock.  Emailed my contact at Google.  I feel like a stone tank with rooted on, but I'll build momentum!

Just rooted? Or are you in full on Granite mode too?
If so, who are you about to tank?  ;D

Yeesh.  Sympathies!

I had flu earlier this season and it hit me harder than anything in a decade -- ten days off from work, for starters, and of course I didn't start staying home until it really kicked in.  Counting weekends, the thing lasted 16-17 days, and at one point (well into the illness) I happened to measure my temperature.  I had a fever from that point on for 66 unbroken hours (and who knows how long I had it before I thought to measure?) and eventually developed a secondary infection of bacterial bronchitis.

It took me weeks to get caught up at work.

But now I'm brimming with antibodies!  :)

I glad I'm not the only one wishing he could bring in a healer to buff everyone. :)

(Did that come out wrong?  :o)

I wouldn't use the word "replace," but there's no word for "take over for you and make everything better almost immediately," so we just say "replace."

Wish I'd pay attention. I could have prayed earlier.

Glad you're getting better, VV!

(By the way, awesome picture healix. XD)

The flu is never fun. Every time I get it, my cough just seems to run on and on and on forEVer.

One time, a year or so ago, when I had the flu, I was coughing so hard I swear it felt like I had cracked a rib AND given myself an abdominal hernia. Fortunately, I healed up from that. This winter, I had the flu again, but the consequences weren't quite so painful (thank God).
