On the 16th I mentioned a new girlfriend.  As happens so often with me, I was counting chickens… and the egg was rotten.

I was coming down with the flu the last three days.  First diarrhea with no fever or coughing, then coughing with no fever or diarrhea, and now coughing and fever but no diarrhea… my high was 101.1 — except it could have been higher last night, but I didn’t think to take it.  I get all the wonderful benefits of the flu — a virtual inability to eat or smoke anything.  Good timing, as my weight had gotten back up to 265.

Hugs,
Me
