Sweating Out the Poison

Spent the last couple days with a hacking cough, flu-like symptoms, nose running like a faucet, you name it.  I guess if it had to happen, I'm glad it was this week, when I was on relatively light duty, before some serious road work kicks in.  Did nothing but sleep Tuesday, just sweating badness out onto the sheets while the kids fended for themselves like animals.  Sort of incredulously awake now, like the first moment of non-misery after a walloping hangover, and hoping this mini-euphoria carries me through tonight's show up in Wyandotte.  Lots of tea, OJ and napping is on the agenda today.  

And the on-again, off-again beard is most definitely off.  If you're not 100% committed to the beard, and you have a runny nose for more than a day, shave that shit off.  You're just being gross, giving all that snot and miasma a vacation home on the front of your face where regular folks have to deal with it.  Clean up your act till your insides work right.  Come on.
