Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

I so hope it's not whooping cough.

SOOOOO happy for you Megan!

P-C, you feel my pain, then.

Yeah, doctor time. I've known a couple people who it has turned out to be walking pneumonia or the like.

Apparently being frustrated and not being starving (ate dinner first, usually eat after I swim)= awesome fast swim. I managed an average lap speed of just under 55s. For 48 laps. WOOOHOO. It was definite work, though. I usually average 57s.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Coughing so hard you throw up is totally a sign you need to go to a doctor.

So is a diagnosis of concrete in the lungs, which is how I initially interpreted "concrete dx".

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Shrift, that sounds alarmingly like what Aims had. And she ended up with a concrete dx for something yucky iirc.

Ah, crap. I remember something about whooping cough? Was that it, or was it something else?

That was it. Which was totally horrible. Get thee to the doctor, ASAP!!

Hi, Aims!

This totally made me laugh out loud. So, thank you for that.

Hi javachik! How are you?

I am good, especially since I get to go meet Consuela for dinner and drinks despite my sin today (lying).

ETA: Today's sin reminded me why I so extremely rarely lie (I mean, on top of it just being wrong most of the time). Well, and, other than I am terrible at it. I don't lie because it usually comes BACK TO BITE ME IN THE ARSE.

SINNER!

I also sinned today. I thought mean thoughts about a student of mine. Right after she kicked me and hit me with her chair.

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

Speaking of sinning, I still haven't decided what I'm giving up for Lent. My upcoming trip makes a lot of things not really feasible or enough of a sacrifice.

ETA: Aims, I admire your restraint.
