Does Absence Make The Heart Grow Fonder?

I haven't been posting this week because, frankly, my wife and I have been at home sick with the flu. Well, sort of.

You see, my wife started to get sick and, one day later, I started showing the same symptoms she did. Sinuses, headache, joint aches, fever, you name it. Her fever spiked one day around 103. Mine spiked that night while I was sleeping... don't know the number, but I woke up twice freezing with my teeth chattering, so it was pretty high. We figured the flu, and went to the doc on the same day. We both took the flu test, and my wife had the flu. I did not.

Kind of unusual, eh? But the doc told Michon to avoid contact with other humans for the next three days, and gave me flu meds on the theory that I'd catch it from her. Yes, that's right, I protected the world (or at least parts of Montgomery and Wetumpka) by locking myself in with a disease vector for three days.

But we're feeling better now. Both of us went yesterday without a fever (except CABIN fever), and I'm back at work this morning. I could still use some more rest, of course, but I'm functional once again.

Now I have to catch up on all the work I missed and, somehow, try to do some blogging in the near future.

God bless, ya'll!
