Ugh

::cough::

::hack::

::cough::

::giant explosion of coughing that leaves me light-headed and sounds like it might be tearing loose some internal organs::

::deep inhalation::

"It's--" ::cough:: "--okay, really." ::ugly hacking cough:: "I'm fine as--" ::more coughing:: "--long as--" ::still more coughing:: "--I don't move." ::forty-second-long coughing fit:: "Or talk."

  1. Terrific. Now I need to sterilize the internet. Where's the germicide?

    1. That's... actually a really good thought. I think so, but it's worth double-checking. On the plus side, I just took the third dose of a three-pack of antibiotics last night, and it's made a huge difference. There's still some coughing, but I got a full night's sleep last night!

    2. Careful there, Michael... be a real shame if you developed autism at this stage of your life.

Feel free to leave comments; it lets me know that people are actually reading my blog. Interesting tangents and topic drift just add flavor. Linking to your own stuff is fine, as long as it's at least loosely relevant. Be civil, and have fun!
