Sick sick sick

So, a bug has been going around, and I've seen many a friend and coworker fall, but I always think, "I'm strong! I don't get sick!" Plus, I take Airborne. But Wednesday morning I woke up early with a scratchy throat, thought it wise to go for a run, got thoroughly cold, and by late morning I realized that I was about to succumb to sickness. I made it through lunch, and then went home to rest up. But the happy news is that I still got work done, had a nice chat with a certain author about a certain mysterious manuscript which I ended up acquiring and am super excited about. I had another fun geeky (yes, that's a clue) acquisition last week that I'm also really excited about, and I'm sure both will be made public in the near future.

At any rate, I've been out of the office for the last two and half days. I'm not sure if my thermometer is faulty, but yesterday it said my temperature was 102.2 degrees! I took a lukewarm shower and took an Aleve, and gradually it came down to normal. But this morning, it's back up. I made a doctor's appointment. Let's hope there's a magic drug I can take that will get me up and running in the next few days.

You got the picture book? YESSS! I am so excited!

P.S. I had a fever too. :-( Do you think we got it from karaoke?
