My Body Has Betray Me

06/05/2006

So, if you’ve played Battlefield Vietnam, then you totally know what I’m talking about. While you’re running around in destroyed buildings and swampy areas, there are these annoying speakers that chant over and over and over in a vietnamese accent, “American soldier, you government has betray you…” It was supposedly a tactic to play mind Read More

Grrrrrrr…

I’ve been sick since Friday afternoon and, darnit, I’m sick of being sick! It’s one of those stupid head-cold things that makes your throat hurt and your sinuses clog and your general awareness of what is happening around you very foggy. My friend Brian gave me a ride home after work on Monday, and I Read More

Blech

06/04/2005

My health is pretty the suck today. My throat started hurting yesterday and today it’s in full-blown hurt. I took some Dayquil and have been sucking on the sugar-free Halls cough drop dealies.

Ow, My Skin.

05/02/2005

I Have This Head Thing

09/06/2003

It’s one of those ones where you can’t breathe and your nose is runny and your throat hurts so bad that swallowing is painful so you can only eat liquidy things like soup. And your brain is acting kind of foggy so when people talk to you you kind of look at them like, “What?” Read More

I Hate That Feeling

07/30/2003

I hate that feeling when you can’t tell if you’re sick or just really lazy. For the past several days I’ve felt feverish, cold, and very tired all the time. I’m getting an average amount (maybe slightly under) of rest. I’m keeping active (swimming almost daily, running around with a 7 year-old, etc.). I just Read More
