    BANG !!

    Couldn't resist. Sorry!

    Hope you get over it real soon. Having two nasty colds already this year, I can sympathize with you. If I were nearby, I'd bring chicken soup and lotsa Puffs.

    Awh, Snap, sorry to hear you're so sick. Wish we could just blink to another level of existence while the body heals itself. Hang in there. Hugs from afar. Sending a virtual dachshund to curl up behind your knees. I've always found that very soothing. L.

    Sorry to hear you're sick! I always liked HOT Alkaseltzer Cold/Flu when I was sick. And either chicken and rice soup or chicken chow mein.

    Hope you feel better soon!

    There are many things that don't help cure a cold or flu, but that are a comfort anyway. Like hot spiced wine, fresh danish, and watching daytime tv from under the covers. Imagine your favorites of things like these ... and go ahead and treat yourself. Or just drop hints to people nearby so they can do something useful. I'd say get well quick, but there's a stage when an extra day's rest can be a good thing. Make the most of it.
    Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

    Snap, ugh. Getting the flu always sucks. I've been lucky so far (*knock on wood*) especially since I didn't get my flu shot this year.
