“It’s not H1N1, which appears to be afflicting only perfectly healthy junior high kids…”

Kris, I’ve clearly be absent from your blog too long. You always remind me of why I’ve been a reader for so long. Only you can make me want to actually write “lol.” Because it’s true. But I don’t write “lol.” It’s a thing I have.

Get better soon (if you haven’t already).

Well, I just hope you feel better real soon so that Kim has someone to hang out with besides Killian.

Ok, FEEL BETTER!

I was reading this, just as I stumbled upstairs after making myself a bowl of soup and feeling worn out, worrying about the laundry in the basement and how will I ever get it to another level. I feel….lousy and have for five days now. Run down, chest congestion and a “non-productive cough.” Always a fan of the “non-productive cough.” I’m staring down a box of Mucinex and a bottle of water. Nose runs…some…not much but the fatigue and “buggy” feeling. Ugh. And you can’t do anything. So frustrating. Hoisting a container of antibiotics instead of wine toward ya. Bleh.

Aww, that’s terrible. I feel so bad for… your washcloths… no I’m kidding! I hate that feeling of must-not-move-or-will-feel-worse. I hope you feel better soon. Had a ganglion cyst once on top of my wrist… went away. Drink your fluids and stay put for a bit.

My inner Larry David wants to say “it could be Lyme.”

My dog had one of those cysts once, on her butt. It actually had ROOTS. Just thought you’d want to know.

You’re not dying. You just can’t think of anything better to do. ;-)

Eeew, flu. I’m required to get a flu shot every year (work) and I still usually get a minor strain for at least a few days. I hope you’re better by now!

(A friend of mine had ganglion cysts in her palms. Snip snip, stitch stitch and she’s fine.)

You are probably better by now, at least I hope so. I like you as “not yet a wino!”

LULZ!!! the “theraflu haze” is the best adjective yet – liked it. I have been there were my teeth hurt and just thought of taking a shower or brushing my teeth makes me tired. The cyst thing sucks because I have on on my wrist, that I thought went away a few years ago BUT ITS BACK! and kinda nasty actually.
Anyway – too funny and sorry you are sick

Talk to me when the spouse gives you the weekend long stomach flu. Ugh. But I’m usually nauseous when having to watch the Tigers cough up a playoff spot anyway.

Take it one ailment at a time. Start with the one that garners the most sympathy and work your way down.

J/k feel better, kiddo!

Order some chicken soup, go lie down, and for the love of g-d, step away from Dr. Google.

All this monkey talk just makes spew cartoon tourettes. . .
If it doesnt have a tail it’s not a monkey, even if it has a monkey kind of shape. If it doesn’t have a tail its not a monkey, if it doesnt have a tail it’s not a monkey, it’s an ape.
Maybe it’s funnier when you can actually hear the music. Mmm, maybe not.
This is what happens when you have kids, you constantly have cartoon jingles stuck in your head, threatening to pop out at any moment. . . .feel better!

You’ll be fine! But see a doctor anyway.

Happy flu season to one and all. Hopefully your sinuses will run free as the three-legged cats in the clover.

As for the palm cyst, the thing really to watch for is hair growing on the palms – blindness follows.

In the meantime, take a few of these and call me at lunchtime?

@Mighty Hunter -Wait. Your doctor wears pants?!?! Man, I gotta get outta here!

Aren’t monkeys and doctors practically the same anyway? Except that monkeys don’t wear pants, of course.

Perhaps you should get sick more often, as it makes you very very very funny (instead of just very very funny).

OK, fine: be well, little Kris.
