Of Mucinex and new glasses...

So last week I finally lost the good fight staving off the germs of all the sickos at work. These people...I swear...ALWAYS come to work when they're sick and act like it's a badge of honor that they made it. I wish they would just stay home, get well and leave the germs out of the office. But they don't. So I got it. Double ear infections and a cold. But, I'm happy to say, I am on the mend and feeling much better after some antibiotics and Mucinex. I do not, however, want to see a bowl of chicken soup again for a long time.

I know that in the past I've stated that I love snow and I do, really, I do. I am somewhat over the awe and wonderment of winter though. It's been damned cold here and the days just drag ass on so, yes, stick a fork in it, I'm done. Winter takes too long. I know it's because I am living in anticipation to February and beyond when Alex and I can get the immigration train rolling. I hate waiting and waiting in the frigid cold just makes waiting all that much worse.

One good thing happened. I am getting new glasses. They look like this.


I haven't actually got them yet but they should be in next week. I was sick when I went to the eye doctor so I hope my choice wasn't clouded by my Mucinex/Biaxin cocktail!

yeah, fuckers go to the grocery store too. i know because that's the only place i've been and i've got it too. hope you feel better. mine's been zyrtec and bactrim or some variation. i hate zyrtec. it's like a major dose of some heavy duty narcotic...knocks me right out, most times sitting straight up :) i like the new glasses. you did good :)

Ah, I hope you're starting to feel better now. I've been trying to post a comment on your blog but for some reason it's not letting me! What the heck am I doing wrong?

the only thing i can think of is that you and reas were trying to post a comment at the same time. she sent me an email saying the same thing and when i looked on sitemeter it looks like you were both on there at the same time. sorry i'll check it out in other ways when i wake up.
