Okay, I’m at work, and I feel like cah-rap. I never, ever [knock on wood] get sick, ever. I get head colds like, twice a year. I can’t remember the last time I went home from work due to being sick, and the last time I vomited due to causes excluding alcohol was 1993, and it was Christmastime, and I don’t even think I missed school.
This is all well and dandy, you say. Cheers to a fine immune system. The problem lies that when I do get sick, I am beyond miserable, and elevate what is clearly minor respiratory disruption to bubonic plague levels. Care for me! Baby me! Fetch me my chicken soup, Damon!
So clearly, I come to work today quite unfocused.
Oh wait. Here..something I can put on my timesheet under “PR - Blogging”
Steak N Shake is now running a promotional offer: $2.99 for a Double-Steakburger and Fries. That’s something like 40% off the regular price. It’s running through this month, so jump on it, and tell your friends. So I can keep my job.
Considering the commission we make on the Steak N Shake account probably pays my salary (I do work on other accounts, but the majority of it is for SNS.), you’d think I’d frequent the establishment a bit more. Truth is, I haven’t been since May of ‘07, so I hit up the 96th street location at about 3am on Sunday morning. It was glorious.
Sidenote: Here’s a couple more pictures from Saturday night. This is a wide shot of Blu Martini, and you can see us 80s-girls in the lower left hand corner, totally out of place.
I need to get a tan.
*cough*
*sniff*
And some chicken soup.

luckily, promptcare told me it was probably only post nasal drip. i, however, feel they were WAY too unconcerned with it. it’s fine now *knock on wood*…
On the other hand, my throat HAS actually bled before (12 days post tonsillectomy) and that was NOT fun… that’s why i panicked this morning..

I am the exact same way when I am sick… So I feel your pain (and I’m sure Eric feels Damon’s). I blame it on my mom, however. When I was sick when I was young she would make chicken noodle soup and warm my towels up in the dryer while I was in the shower and such… for some reason, Eric thinks that this is unreasonable… HA :-) Hope you feel better soon
