I'm not dead, thank you all for asking.
I was almost dead, but I think I'm getting better.
I feel vampiracle right now.
If I eat your baby I would be right as rain, but there are laws in place against that so I guess I'll just suffer through the last leg of this flu the old fashioned way.
I think I'm getting an ear infection. Seriously, to top it all off. I feel like someone strapped fish tanks to the sides of my head. I'd call the doctor but I don't want to go on antibiotics because I don't want to screw with my birth control or get a yeast infection. I always love how the first thing I'm worried about when I get sick is my pants.
Oh, I'd totally get rid of this strep throat but I just shelled out my pinky finger in exchange for a pack of pills and I don't want to waste the whole pack so let's just see what happens.
This festering puncture wound might be infected. But I don't want a bad case of the itchsnatch. I'll pour some rubbing alcohol over it.
Jake ran a fever of 104 all day yesterday. Dave had a meningitis scare last week. We are all in deep.
I really tried to keep whining about this plague off my blog since it is all over everyone else's and I can't think of anything to say that hasn't already been said or felt by the rest of you, but I just can't help telling you all how sick we are. I miss my friends. I miss food. I miss myself. I miss my family. I miss time off of the couch. I miss brain functions. I miss fitless sleep.
They are calling for highs around 70 this weekend, but they are calling for snow next weekend. I need to stop looking at the ten day forecast. It's bringing me down.

Oh no! It's not going away! I was hoping you would be better by now. I think I am getting an ear infection too, right ear. Eric used to get them all the time, like once a month. Dr. wanted to put tubes in his ears if they didn't stop. Can you imagine that? I can't imagine my little guy going through surgery.
At least you're getting some nice weather, it is freezing here!
Get better!!!!!
I so feel your pain. And I agree with you about antibiotics. I didn't take my pill for three days because I was so sick and had to take them all at once and I'm sure that's not effective so I'm gonna keep the hubby off me until my next pack, just to be safe :) He's not going to be thrilled but that's just too bad.
Get better!
Good god, woman. What sort of nasty germs are lurking in your house? UGH! I've heard of several adults getting ear infections this season. Are you trying to relive your youth? I'd rather see you wear parachute pants than subject yourself to the pain of an ear infection.
I hope (Feels Like) Death unparks himself from your doorstop ASAP.
im sorry you're sick and i completely understand not wanting to be sick in your pants. in case you missed my post i hate an itchy vagina. i hope you feel better.
Lora,
Thanks for the tip on following. I guess I just wasn't logged in to my blog address the first time! I think I'm in now. The picture is me with my other self.
Oh ick. I'm so sorry. I miss you being well, too. Sending lots of healthy thoughts and wishes your way. Hugs and kisses, too, since you can't possibly pass whatever it is on from this far away.
Erm. By "whatever it is" I actually meant "all that you guys have". Apparently I'm missing brain functions, too. I promise that I read the post. Truly, I did.
Yuck.
That sounds miserable for all of you.
Hope you're kicking your heels by the time the snow falls.
Just pour some Comet all over yourself and your whole family. I hope you all feel better real soon.
I hope you feel better all of you :) it's really no fun being sick :(
Go to the doctor. You want to get rid of the sick once and for all, don't you? And don't worry about complaining about your household sicknesses on your blog - it's all I ever do.
it's the coaster temps that fuel all this sickness.....sending medicine buddha energy your way!!!!!!!!
we are to hit 60 tomorrow and what yesterday's high was in the 20s?????
OK... you HAVE to check out my post from Tues about my rantings... I am so in the same boat sista! Feel better!
You had to mention that dreaded S word didn't you.
I am still on the high of good weather this weekend.
Hope your household is feeling much better :)
It really is an awful plague that is going around. Try the Hyland's ear drops for your ears if you can get to a pharmacy. They're usually by the eye drops (I have no idea why). I used them on the kids A LOT before they got ear tubes and they were great until we could get to the doc, but I have kids who need the drugs to totally kick an infection. Other parents swear by only the drops. They're for adults too.
I really hope y'all feel better soon. Our state made the weather channel's flu report. That's how bad it is statewide. I think I'm finally getting it. I have that feeling in my throat like I slept with a dick in my mouth. (That's how we describe that sore throat you wake up with in our house - thank my husband for that phrase).
oh yick. feel better and _then_ call me for a coffee date.
I hope you and the men feel better soon, sweetness. :)
No body told me about this snow next weekend! WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. When will it be OVERRR????
And I agree, a yeaster is way worse than an ear infection. Stick with the above the pants maladies.
I hope you feel better soon!
Ooh...being sick is ick. Sending farewell flu, so long ear infection, sayonara strep throat energy your way. Wishes for good health for all of you soon!
My Grandmother swears by Cheer ("The powder, not the liquid") All her plastic dishes smell of it.
My mother swears by Hot Toddies, which as Im sure you know involve whiskey. All her plastic dishes smell of it.
Your choice. Get Well Soon!
Ugh. That sucks, yo. I hope you all start feeling better soon.
I just got over a three week sinus infection. I didn't go to the doctor because I didn't want to go on antibiotics either. Because of the yeast infection thing and also because it always messes with my intestines. I like normal poo.
