A new fun kind of sick

[Brian Reed]

Okay. First you get the flu. This is the easy part. Any flu will do. I suggest something with a nice 102 degree temperature and very little head congestion, since the fever-induced hallucinations are fun, but the nose full of snot is not.

Then, get one of your kids to get a different flu from school. This is the tricky bit, since you need something with completely different symptoms (say, lots of vomiting) and synching up incubation times between two different viruses can be tricky.

Now, you must recover from flu #1 exactly 6 hours before flu #2 comes on in full force.

It's brilliant. A real Old Testament kind of experience.

Ugh. Hope you feel better.

I've been having weird ass feverish dreams, but I blame Oblivion.

Geez Brian. I hope you're feeling better.

I dreamt yesterday that the Four Horsemen were all really hot super models. That was kind of nice.

I dreamt last night that I was in an off site meeting, which for some reason was located in Tazhikistan. All the members of the steering committee here that have quit or switched projects in the last six months were in the meeting with me. At some point we started to hear explosions from outside from the hills above. I opened a sliding glass door to get a better view, and watched bullet richochets skipping across the street. I calmly closed the sliding door, and the meeting resumed.

Come to think of it I probably don't need to blame that puppy on Oblivion, nor do I need to pay a therapist to interrprut for me.

I tend to dream about being arrested or detained or something. Not sure why. The dreams never involve anything weird beyond that.
