I've been sick since Christmas Eve! Started as a head cold, then went to my chest New Years Eve. Yesterday, I started getting the shivers and had to bundle up. Went up to a 104 fever. I was delerious for awhile. Almost got so bad I was gonna call the ambulance. Fever broke and now I feel a little better, but my chest is still eff'd.

Thanks for the adulation -- but it hasn't quite gotten to the point where I'm going to have to defenistrate myself yet --I'm too lazy to move the table so I can actually open the window. Besides, I've got a guest coming into town tomorrow.... if I killed myself (or, more likely, wound up in the hospital) she'd have no place to stay. 🙂

Well, maybe you could defenestrate other objects? That would take your mind off your sickness and offer hours of amusement and enjoyment! 🙂 And yeah, we don't want you getting killed. Injured would be funny, but not death. 😛

True. I've been thinking about defenistrating a giant box of Green tea I got for Christmas. I got one (100 bags); my parents, who I see about once a week, each got one (another 100 bags each); this is all on top of the 100 or so bags of tea I already lying in the kitchen. The only thing that's stopping me is the fact that a.) I do like something warm to drink, and when I'm sick I don't fancy coffee, and b.) a cardboard box of tea wouldn't make a very satisfying sound or visual when it fell one story.

By the way, when I typed in defenistrate in Google, the first result was for something called "Defenistrate the Cat." Didn't check it out, but I thought I would share.
 
I'm sick and at work 🙁 (out of sick time).

Yes, I have a cold, and yes, I'm sick. I don't know who said having a cold doesn't mean you're sick, but dammit, there's a virus inside me, making me feel bad. To me, that's being sick!
