being sick/swine flu
I love being sick. Every time I get sick, which isn’t that often, I whine. A lot. Today I have the congestion in the sinuses and the lungs are producing that yummy green rubber cement stuff that we all like. It’s sort of funny because a little over a week ago, I was laid out with the night sweats and shivering and headaches and oh man, I’m gonna die. And I am. Some day.
I have decided that that illness was due to an allergic or similar reaction to an air freshener that I’d bought a few weeks prior. I came upon that conclusion because A) I had headaches and body troubles, but no chest/nasal symptoms and B) as soon as I identified and tossed out the air freshener, I started to get better. So there you have it.
But now I have the wonderful chest and nasal congestion and wouldn’t you know it, the weather is finally turning into what resembles Spring. Great.
At one point my mom told me to take a peek at the whole swine flu phenomenon that is being shoved down our throats right now by the media. Did you know that you’re doomed and that you’re going to die? You will. Some day.
Did you know that less than 200 people have died from the dreaded swine flu and that something like 20,000 people a year die from the non-dreaded normal flu? In the U.S. alone? Uh oh…we’re all gonna die!!! Some day.
