"I'm starting to doubt this healthy vegan lifestyle," Rob joked through his congestion. "I'm thinking of treating this with low-grade sausage."
I'd say he can't be too sick if he's making jokes, but I think Rob would probably keep his sense of humor even if he were bleeding to death. And having at least one fully-functioning sense of humor in the house is making it much easier to deal with all three of us being sick. Again.
It was clear by yesterday evening that Rob, Westley, and I were all seriously under the weather. I couldn't believe it.
"Didn't we just do this?"
And we did. One month ago. Exactly one month ago. (Thank you, blog archives.)
I just hope this one-cold-a-month thing doesn't become the norm around here. For one thing, a person can only drink so much ginger tea with lemon. And for another, my birthday is about a month from now, and I was looking forward to doing something other than eating soup and napping to celebrate.

Have you tried taking Lysine? It's an essential amino acid, and animal studies indicate that lysine deficiency can cause immunodeficiency.
According to wiki "good sources of lysine are foods rich in protein such as soy, as well as meat (specifically red meat, lamb, pork, and poultry), cheese (particularly Parmesan), certain fish (such as cod and sardines), and eggs."
If your family eats a low-soy diet perhaps supplementary lysine would help keep your immune systems strong. Of course, if you eat lots of legumes you probably get enough lysine in your diet to avoid deficiency.
ANYWAY, I hope you all feel better! :)
Us too :(
Feel better.
Do you have the Nosefrida? It works wonders at snot removal and if you have as perverse fascination with gross things you will love it!
