hi there. i got sick. blech. bad stuff, being sick, but at least it's temporary and makes the return to health all the more appreciated.

throwing up is one of the yuckiest experiences ever. calling ralph on the big white telephone. tossing cookies. technicolor yawn. i used to work with a guy who could quote an endless array of barfing euphemisms. something to take pride in, that.

tuesday i called in sick and slept until 4 p.m. then i got in the shower. my headache felt like a tight, cotton cap on the inside of my skull. i felt dumb. i wondered if i had lost brain cells so i started quizzing myself...

isosceles triangle. check. quadratic equation. check. ok. some smart cells remain. whew! ok, shampoo, rinse, repeat.

so here's a joke:

a polar bear walks into a bar. the bartender says, "what can i get you to drink?" the polar bear responds, "a gin........and tonic." the bartender asks, "why the big pause?" the polar bear looks down and says, "oh, these? i've had 'em all my life."

i'm glad to see i have some corny joke cells left, too. woohoo! oh, and simpsons cells. yay!
