Brain on half power, and under the influence of a homemade (and GoodWife approved!) cocktail of antihistamine, decongestant, Tylenol, cough syrup, and coffee (natch…), I don’t have much to write. Or read, for that matter. Brain not work for Volf, only for blogs (which almost no one is posting) and magazines. Fortunately, I still have mental access to David Wilcox’s poem:
COLD
You ever wonder why you get a cold?
Look at the word – spell it – C-old.
C-OLD?!You’re pulled over by the reaper for a warning
He says,”I clocked you thinking 80″
You know you’re not that old
You’ve been worried about the darkness in the morningWell, I’ll give you something to worry about, he says
And he flips open his ticket pad
Appreciate your breathingI’m gonna write you up a headache for those thoughts
Now why you been so worried
What have you been reading
And why do you have to tally all you’ve lostI’ma write you up a head cold
It comes on like bad weather
So maybe you’ll appreciate the warmingSee it gives a new perspective
Soon you’ll be feeling better
I’ll let you off this time
With a warningHe says, But take it easy, alright
People live around hereYou won’t see him in time
What I’m trying to say is
You’ll miss him

Get well. I actually posted a blog, that may serve to briefly occupy you.
Hey … I’ve been posting.
Hope you feel better soon. Drink a LOT of water … if it’s hot with lemon and honey then it tastes better and you get some vitamin C too.
bummer to miss you last night…hope you all get better soon!
t.a.
david wilcox….reminds me of tc days!
My favorite cure-all is beef noodle soup from Pho 75. Feel better.
Sounds like the dreaded “Med-Head”
