Here comes sickness

Woke up Tuesday with a monster headache, and it went downhill from there. Apparently there is a 24 hr bug going around, and it got around to me. Women readers will not be surprised when I say that I'm a total weenie when I get sick. (typical male)

101.4 fever
chills, sweats
all manner of unpleasantries happening at both ends of the body.

Without going into any more detail I was out of commission on Tue and most of Wed.

Sorry to keep the suspense going but my ultrasound is going to be next week. I set it for the 18th at 8:30, but I have a conference call at that time so I will reschedule the ultrasound a third time. No, I'm not trying to avoid it, quite the opposite actually I'd rather get on with it. Even after I'd decided I would call in sick on Tue I still was hoping to get the ultrasound done, but the bug had other ideas.

Since Monday night I've eaten;

6 crackers
5 tablespoons of chicken soup with rice
2 slices of toast well done
1 half a banana
Lots of water and Gatorade

Total weightloss? 2 lbs

Glad to back among the living.


Our annual raises happen today and tomorrow, and not surprisingly we got the confidentiality reminder letter. Lest any of the 2% people know you got 3% this year. I'm just glad blogging is free.

The first record I ever bought with my own money was Queen's News of the world. I paid $4.99 at a place called Tiger records. Tiger records was more of a head shop than a record store as I recall. And yeah of course it was vinyl.

Music- Thievery Corporation the outernational sound which isn't the thievery corporation at all but rather them mixing other peoples records. It's quite swanky.

Netflix- The great race (as I attempt and fail once again to interest my kid in something that I once loved as a child)
