Sick Sucks

Ah, Fall...

When the college students come back in the fall, they bring their damned germs with them. And as they mix and spread around, everybody gets sick. (raises hand) Yup. It's time for a summer... er, autumn cold.

See, it's the middle of September, but we're in the midst of a frost alert, so I can hardly call this a summer cold until a couple of days from now when it gets back up to the 80s.

Thankfully, I don't have any place I have to go this weekend, so sleep and rest it is.

And lots of Puffs. (sniff)

Assholes

I can, however, mostly breathe -- a good way to have a cold. And I can smell.

So a while ago I had to go and close some windows cracked open to have good ventilation and a delightful sleeping experience, because instead of good fall scents and wood smoke, the smell of burnt rubber was wafting through the house.

I suspect it was idiots laying down patches on the road. And they weren't close enough to hear them.

Sucks.

ps -- well, a routing good shutout of Notre Dame was probably the best possible outcome of a Michigan-ND football game. Besides, Russell Crowe was a guest in the Big House, and it would've been impolite to lose in front of guests. (grin)

At least it's just a cold - my kindergarteners are sharing a flu right now. They're so good at sharing!

Yeah, I look forward all summer to the kid going back to school so I can get some peace and quiet. Somehow I always manage to forget what a petri dish a school full of kids is. We're a month into school, and for the last month my nose has run and my eyes have itched. I'm not sure peace and quiet is worth this. But to purposely expose yourself to germ warfare, like you do, that's just crazy.

That which does not kill us, only makes us stronger.

Makes you wonder what Klingon grade schools are like... (grin)

Advance force member from F.U.E.U. (A.H!) (http://whateveresque.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=99&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=120#p1983), here to see if I can peacefully infiltrate and pacify the locals. If not, expect invasion from more assertive forces via the INS The Angry Black Woman.

Resistance is not recommended.
