Well it took a while, I even put up a good fight but in the end I got the sickness. 

Yup, everybody has been getting sick around me (my wife, co-workers, strangers on the elevator, etc) and I was doing so well at NOT getting sick but I guess I just couldn't fight it off any longer.  It's day 3 or 4 and the crud (as my wife calls it) is not getting any better.  Fuckin' A!  My wife has had it for about a week longer than I and she's STILL fighting it off which means that I have at least another week of this crap to look forward to.

Anywho, just thought I'd let the world know so my avid readers don't think I've given up blogging; I haven't.  Just need to get rid of the crud!
