Curse you, bug!

No, not a spider or some other creepy crawler. I curse the bug that made us sick! Sick!

We’ve succumbed to one of the bugs going around. First me, then Nate. We suspect it has something to do with the all those kids at the Best’s dinner gathering on Saturday night, but it could be from anything. A number of my co-workers have missed days of work. The weather has been cold and wet and generally crappy for two days now. (Welcome Seattle fall!) And being around a dozen kids from half-a-dozen families certainly increases your odds of picking up a bug. Curse you, bug!

So here we lay, Nate on one couch, me on another. Both in our PJ’s. Both drinking teas, soups and other hot concoctions to soothe our throats, relieve the aches in our bones and rest our ill bodies. (Has Nate ever told you that I can be a drama queen? If not, I think I’ve just proven my capabilities.)

Maybe it will be a 24-hour thing. I have hopes of feeling better tomorrow. In the mean time, I’ll digest Vitamin C, Echinacea and anything else that offers a hope to make me better. Ugh.
