Brandi's Place

Yes, it's that time of year again. You know it's lurking around every unsanitized corner, phone mouth piece, unwashed hand you shake. Every time you sneeze or cough, you wonder, could this be it? Oh yes my friends, I'm talking about the flu. And, I'm afraid to say, I think it's here. I woke up kind of sleepy this morning, but that's normal, it's Monday! However as the day progressed, I noticed I was coughing a little more often, a couple sneezes too many. I've got that head-too-heavy, hotter than hot but no fever, achy muscle, lethargic thing going on. So, I'm drinking the OJ and plan to knock myself out w/ a shot of Nyquil tonight. I've never had a flu shot, so this year's panic-inducing shortage isn't a problem for me. However, I'm sure as flu season progresses, it will become a problem for all of us, as more people will be sick. All I can say, at the risk of sounding like each of our mothers, WASH YOUR HANDS! Wish me luck as I prepare for the battle. Now, I'll sing you a song, "The flu ain't gonna break my style, the flu ain't gonna slow me down, oh no, I got to keep on moving."
