How high are you supposed to raise your knees in the standing march test?

We have smart people here - exactly how much mucus/phlegm can one body continue making for TWO FLIPPING WEEKS?? Seriously. Kleenex called me yesterday to thank me for their significant raise in early 3rd quarter profit numbers.

Shef had me stumped too.

I read it as Yiddish for a minute.

I have both been there and gotten the phone call. And I will repeat what I always say: if the human body doesn't ordinarily just have massive amounts of snot waiting to be blown out, then when you have a cold, WHERE DOES IT COME FROM?!? And my conclusion is that it's not snot, but braiiiiiiiiiiiins that you're actually blowing out.

(I know, the body makes snot in response to the cold/allergies/etc., but I like my explanation better.)

Not overly high.

And my conclusion is that it's not snot, but braiiiiiiiiiiiins that you're actually blowing out.

Then I am in serious effing danger of having a noggin filled with spinal fluid. TWO WEEKS.

Again, I feel your pain. I hate colds/plagues/whatever that last that long.

I read somewhere once that the reason the ancient Egyptians just pulled out and discarded the brain instead of preserving like other vital organs was that they believed that the inside of the head was pretty much just a mucus factory.

Certainly there have been times when I can understand the logic there.

Suzi, that is so great! Good luck to CJ.

Empress, no sneezing brain cells. I forbids it.

Right. On the slight chance that anyone wants to read what kept my brain spinning all night (until past 3 am - karma is swift and unflinching), it's now posted (locked) in lj [link] and dreamwidth [link] (linked just to overall journal to preserve lj cut - you're welcome).

I totally made my final arguments using relevant Princess Bride quotes for headers. And then continued that theme in my post!

I don't know why I'm so pleased with myself over this. Zoloft? Is that you?

So a friend's fiance who is new to town asked me to take her shopping tomorrow. It's mostly gonna be a Ross/Marshall's/Macy's Sale work clothes kind of trip, but! The Deep Ellum market's inaugural weekend is tomorrow, and I am totally visiting this booth [link]

So nobody's gonna say what "Shef mommy" is, so I don't have to ask and can just pretend I figured it out? Huh?
