A Seasonal Haiku
Muscle aches, headache and snot.
Influenza sucks.
Ziltoid was definitely a fifth instar in the last pictures. And he was a fifth instar on a mission. While I tried a couple of times yesterday to redirect Ziltie to a leaf or twig, he insisted on sitting on the inside of the glass bowl, making a little pile of webbing. Last night he…
Jamisinc: In the beginning, the deal was that we’d split everything 50/50 chore-wise. That (for obvious reasons) didn’t last too long. The Professor hates cooking. In fact, I’d take it a step further and say he’s intimidated by it. When he lived alone, he ate every meal out, or had take-away. He at first said…
I decided to take Friday off, so that I can have a three day weekend to get away with The Prof. Still don’t know where we’re going (not far) or what we’re doing (not expensive), but I either need to blow steam or blow up. I’d love to go down to DC for a few…
As usual, nothing is straight-forward. My stand-in doctor decided that I should be hospitalized, so I got to go straight to Admissions from his office (Do not pass “Go”, do not collect $200.). A chest x-ray, a tummy-tap (four liters this time, accumulated in two weeks), four boluses of antibiotic, and eight respiratory treatments with…
Actually, I wanted to say “Free to Good Home”, but that’s too long for the Title Display. The little shit has gone and done it again. I got up this morning, did the usual morning things, and then reached for my wallet and card case. The wallet was right where I left it last night….
The board I co-administer has one person on it who is very intelligent, articulate, funny, caring, active socially and politically, and who can push my buttons faster than Weird Al Yankowitz can push the buttons on an accordion. He believes the US should be negotiating with Afghan, and that the answer to America’s problems is…

Poor Sal =(
Did you get the flu?
Sorry you got the damn flu!
We’ve all got a bug here. First the baby, then the Kid, then W, then me and now S. Luckily, there seem to be at least two of us functioning more or less normally at all times. I don’t have your wonderful haiku in front of me just now, but as my fever-addled brain recalls there is no mention of the horrible sore throat! When I wake up in the morning it feels like I’ve been swallowing chunks of hot pumice all night. Horrible, just horrible. But the haiku is good, really good.
