My advice for March 7

Advice is sometimes taken, sometimes heeded, and yet other times disregarded but if there is anything I can say to make you believe me about this advice I don't know what it would take...maybe a picture of how awful I look at the moment? Or rather a video would bring the point closer to home, especially of how I sound while talking. Right now I sound like I've been a chain smoker for most of my life! Here I sit, in my pajamas, suppressing a cough, feeling a little loopy from a temp. of 99.0 and feeling like my face has been smashed into the wall. (well not quite to that extent with my face but it does feel a little puffy :) )

My advice, DON'T GET SICK!!!!! Reasons being:
  • It's not fun
  • Your stuck in bed most of the day, not out of force but out of sheer desire because you feel so bad
  • You miss school (my psych test..oh my psych test)
  • You miss work ($$$$$$)
  • It's not the most pleasant experience to feel your head pounding and nothing can make the pain go away
  • It's not the best route if your looking for time off of work, you won't get anything done around the house and if you do it will take twice as long, believe me!!!

This respiratory influenza stuff is HORRIBLE!!!!! If you know someone who has it, like me, tell them to go home and go to bed and not to show their little face until their fever has passed!!!!! It is so contagious. Ugh...well, don't worry, I won't show my face until the fever has passed and I don't really think posting a picture of the way I look right now would be a very good idea, although it might get the point across!!!
