Crud.

It's almost one thirty in the morning, and I'm wide awake. I've much messed up my sleep schedule in the last few days.

And my nose and throat are starting to tickle. Several weeks of being paranoid about getting nailed by the cold-of-the-week, and I spend two days messing up my sleep and getting physically close to people, and I come down with something.

Time to start hitting the vitamin C, zinc chelate, and echinacea hard.


When big pharma actually works out a targetted anti-viral "kill this cold in it's tracks" drug, people will line up to pay twenty bucks a dose for it. (At least, until the Canadian Provincial "Insurance" orgs threaten to steal it at gunpoint say "sell it at 'cost' or we will break your patent".

Anyway, echinacea tea will be purchased at QFC on the way to work, and will be sucked down while I attempt to get the tasks of the week/month/year done
