still sick, what else is new…
Still, I feel better than just staying at home being sick.
I think that I need the dusty, dirty air of the warehouse to build up my immume system up.
Sounds like a plan.

You know you got some good meat when the vegetarian roommate comes homes and says that the meat that you cooked smells good.
Had two of the gourmet burgers from the Omaha Steak Co. that my parents got for me. I want to cook the pork chops, but I need to go to the store and get some stuff for a marinate first. Can’t wait to cook those.
Anyway, I am feeling better, I guess. My main problem is with sleeping; I can’t get to sleep at night cause I’m coughing and choking on saliva and phlegm. Hopefully, the worse is gone and I will be able to get some sleep. If I don’t, then off to the hospital…actually, I will go to the health clinic on campus since it is closer.

I am still sick.
I am still home in bed.
I want my mommy to come and take care of me.
If I am not well by tomorrow, it is off to the hospital to find out what form of leprosy I have.
I cold just doesn’t last this long. It must be something more serious.
Like colon cancer or a hysterectomy. Maybe I need to ask the doctor about what the purple pill could do for me.
This is all Maire’s fault for not being a doctor yet and hooking me up with some prescription drugs….O. K. so she is 3,000 miles away also, but still.
I could also blame Gabi for not hooking me up with any experimental drugs from Bayer. She closer than Marie too, so it would be easier to blame her.
Anyway, more juice, cough drops and rest.

But a big part of it is subconscious. Somehow, Apple’s products stimulate desire. Perhaps the machines tap into some primeval, magpie-like attraction to bright shiny objects, a universal, timeless urge to own nice things.
It’s not unlike sex: You’re smitten, and you’ve got to have it. Once you do, the ardor fades. But never mind, regular as clockwork, the next thing out of Apple reignites the yearning.

Just read this article in the SF Bay Guardian. **shiver** The job market is so scary right now.

Buffy episode wasn’t that great. Like duh, of course Buffy being brought back to life is the reason for the ultimate baddie. All I could do was make lesbian jokes for some reason. Oh, I did notice that Willow was percolating in the first scene in her bedroom before the beginning credits. Yeah baby.
God, I hope these drugs cure my cold soon.

Can’t sleep.
Every time I try to sleep I start to cough and choke and moan.
Yep, moan. When I have a cold sometimes, I forget to breathe. I know, how do you forget to breathe. Well, I’ve figured it out somehow. Anyway, the breathe that I’m holding in eventually pushes itself out, and when it does, it sounds like I’m moaning.
Don’t know how long I’ve been doing it, but I’ve only noticed it within the last couple of years.
Scared one of my roommates once. He was making out with his boyfriend in our room, cause I had taken Nyquil and was out. All of the sudden, they hear me moan and it freaked them out. Serves him right for trying to get it on while I was sick. If he needed some alone time, he could have asked.
Anyway, room is clean and sanitized. To quote Zim, “Ahhh, the stench of cleanliness”. I have my super bag of cough drops, so I should be ready for work tomorrow.
I had a stupid thought. I was watching the Spanish network on T. V., watching this couple kiss and I thought to myself, “What if Suzanne and I get back together, and I forget how to kiss her?” Can you forget how to kiss? I thought it was like riding a bicycle. Anyway, this thought has bothered me all afternoon. It’s not like I can practice on Suzanne or anyone else for that matter. I guess I could use my arm or a pillow, but there is no feedback. Hmmmm.
Yeah, I must be doped up on some good drugs. This cold is good as gone.

Home from work sick **cough, cough**.
Yes I am still sick. I didn’t go to bed until 5am in the morning. And I had to be out the house by 9am for my manager’s meeting. Blah. After the meeting, headed back to the warehouse to catch TIm up on what’s going on. Then headed for Walgreens for some supplies. Apparently, I’m not the only one suffering from a cold, cause a lot of their cold supplies were running low or were out completely. Also picked up some disinfectant. So the plan is to clean my room and to change my sheets and disinfect the place. Then go and eat and take some medicine and then take a nap and catch up on sleep.
BTW, caught the end of the keynote speech at Macworld. OMG 17″, that is so huge for a laptop. And the commercial with Mini Me and that 8′ Chinese basketball player is funny. I am a PC user, but I have to admit, that Apple comes out with some cool ass stuff.

The milk is too hot to drink. Crap. And I am too lazy to go back downstairs to get some ice cubes.
