Current Mood: Ill

Bah.  We’re still both pretty sick.  I spent most of today sleeping.  I got up this morning and it took so much energy to take a shower that I couldn’t imagine actually going to work.  Perhaps tomorrow will be better.

We should be investing in the company that makes Vernors. For those not from Michigan, it’s a highly-carbonated, highly gingered soda that most everyone here drinks when they are sick.  I think it’s actually the only big commercial ginger ale actually flavoured with real ginger.  It’s full of HFCS, but at least it settles your stomach and when you’re not getting calories from anything else, some cheap carbs are probably not too bad (right?).

We both thought we’d get through this winter without a major sickness.  Apparently, not so.  Hopefully we get over this soon and back to the regularly scheduled programming.  This sucks!
