Ugh. Yeah, it’s been a while since I posted but I have a good reason for that. If you’ve looked at my twitter feed at all for the past week or so you’ll have noticed I’ve been sick with the flu.

It came on Saturday (although I didn’t realize it at the time) in the form of a particularly bad cough. I still went out with my friends to check out one of the haunted houses in the area and afterwords to go see Paranormal Activity in the theater. But I’ll split that out into a seperate post as I try to catch up here.

Sunday I was out. I woke up early with a slight fever and decided to just go back to bed. After sleeping until around 10:45, I woke up again and made myself breakfast, at which point I went back to bed again. I woke up around 3 with a fever of roughly 102 so I decided I’d drag myself to the doctor to see about getting some anti-virals or something because I tend to get hit pretty hard when the flu comes knocking (when I catch it. I usually don’t get it at all). After a couple hours of waiting in the waiting room at Urgent Care with a demon child named “Anthony” running around and screaming, I was brought in and given some Tamiflu.

Monday, I was feeling better, but still had a fever. The fever was gone by Tuesday though thankfully and I went back to work Wednesday.

Of course now I have my fun lingering cough situation that always happens to me after I get sick. I’m going to be coughing for weeks now…it’s horrible…

I’m also feeling a bit…laggy. I’m operating a bit slower than usual and I’m pretty tired despite having a full nights sleep last night. Hopefully it goes away.

Just a couple of smaller updates: I did get the new Transatlantic album on Monday (look for a post about that later too) and also the new Trans-Siberian Orchestra album which I’ll probably talk about in my transatlantic post.
