GET YOUR FLU SHOT, CHILDREN. LEARN FROM MY MISTAKE

(Also anyone on American Airlines Flights from BWI-DFW or DFW-SFO today may want to re-book - I'm about to fly out with a 101 fever (post Tylenol) b/c I have no choice . . .

Erk. Can you pick up an N-95 mask at a drug store on the way out? (2 yellow elastic bands, N-95 printed on the front, about $1.95 where I am.) I <3 mine. I wear them for allergy reasons, but they're SARS-proof (and just about everything else, including dust particles and other allergens) and will keep you from getting sicker from the air on the plane. They also keep the air you breathe moist and warm, reducing the likelihood of inhaled infections. :(

I'm asthmatic, so can't do the N-95 thing. I bought about 8 handi-packs of Kleenex and will cough into my a Kleenex if I have to cough. I HATE flying when I'm sick, and feel really bad about everyone around me. I'm hoping that the adage about being most contagious before you're symptomatic is true.

Oh, that sucks. I didn't know it would aggravate asthma. I find it reduces my asthmatic reactions. :(

I hope you're right, too. It really bites to HAVE to go somewhere when you're under the weather.

My room is clean! :) But no, not that clean. Sickness sucks. Have you decided if you're sick?

There is a plague going around the conservation department. I sound like Marlene Dietrich, and keep waking up coughing. Yay winter!

There is no option for "I'm not sick, nor is anyone else".

How did you know, Deshie? HOW DID YOU KNOW??!?

I'm sicker than your average.
