I’m sick. There’s been a virus going around, started by Mr. Wheaties, propagated by god-knows-what. Wheaties is over it now, and Nick and Trolley are just finishing up. I woke up yesterday with a very slightly sore throat, but this morning the irritation is much more distinguished. I don’t seem to be having any other symptoms though, such as a runny or stuffy nose, which are generally extremely common for me. I’m beginning to suspect I may just have a throat infection, but I won’t be able to tell anything until tomorrow. One thing is for sure though, with the rate that these symptoms are spreading, I’ll be sick for a long time.

The good thing, if it can really be considered a good thing, is that I’ll be able to down some Neo Citran, which tastes like yummy metallic lemonade, or god-awful what-the-fuck-did-you-do-to-these-cherries cherry juice. The best part is how well I sleep after Neo Citran makes me too drowsy to operate heavy machinery.
