Flu!
Wednesday, 2008 February 20 - 10:01 pm
I think have the flu. It might be just a cold, but it's starting to feel awfully flu-ish.

I even got the damn vaccine shot. But apparently, this year's vaccine only protects against 27% of the flu strains out this year (it's typically 70% to 90%). They just plain got it wrong... and I can tell you, if there's a 73% chance that a typical person will get the flu, that translates to like 143% for me.

Buh. Someone send me some orange juice.

Tom had something flu-ish a couple of weeks ago, the doctor told him that there is a virus going around that isn't The Flu, but is pretty close. Which doesn't help you feel any better right now, but might explain why your flu shot did diddily-squat. Hope you feel better soon!

Bummer, man! I'm glad you have a loving somebody to take care of you (if you're the sort who likes caretaking).

Is "buh" what it sounds like when you say "meh" with a stuffed up nose?

Hope you bounce back quickly. We have a number of flu and stomach bugs floating around my area too. I had two vomiting kids last week but no vomiting mom thankfully. Get well soon.
