oh it's bad
Daniel and I both have the flu. Honestly, I don't remember the flu being this awful. Our couch (and sometimes our bed) has been our permanent place of residence for the past two days. We've worked here, eaten here, and coughed, sniffled, and sneezed a lot here. But that's really all we've done. We've gone through two boxes of tissues and had two 14-hour nights. 14 hours of sleep. I've watched more House, CSI, Cold Case and Trust Me than I ever thought I would. Normally I would be going crazy having sat around so much, but honestly the mere thought of doing something other than sitting makes me nauseous. And the house is a disaster. When both adults in the house are this sick, the government should just give you a maid for a few days—the dog is useless. She's mostly just confused about why we're sleeping so much. Make that a maid and a dog-walker. Anyway, if you're looking for us, we'll be here...

I was sorry to hear you both had the flu. A couple of weeks ago, Tom and I had it--with just a couple of differences. He was a couple of days ahead of me, I had a fever for days longer than he, and it took me longer to recover. I won't say to you how long it took. No, it was NOT fun... I will tell you, though, that I think the symptoms were milder as we had the flu shots. I told Debbie that you two needed flu shots next year...remember that, ok? I did consider asking for a refund on our flu shots but decided it would be a lost cause trying to get the $40 back! ;-) Hope you feel better.
