1. bummer... the best thing

spoil self and take care of you

speedy recovery....

[TZ]

2. ...

Hmmm. I'll take some of those antibodies for experiments if you please!

[Bake]

3. You do NOT want any of this shit.

My sinuses are running like a damn faucet. Coughing up crud like a squeezebox. Low grade fever. Got to get better. Right here at Christmas ...

Bummer.

5. Luagh it up.

I had one of those weird dreams where I'm falling into darkness that gets blacker and blacker, like death. I've had these for years, whenever I've got a fever. I wake up in a cold sweat.

You do NOT want this. Trust me.

Bake

[TZ]

8. In all seriousness

get well soon. I never seem to run fevers for some reason. The last fever I had was a couple of years ago and that was like 99.9.

[Bake]

14. The best thing I can say is I'm sitting here, not at work (!), in my bathrobe.

I know, I know, TMI ...



Bake

[siligut]

4. Nyquil or Theraflu

Awwww, sorry guy. Stay warm and like seabeyond says, spoil yourself.

[madinmaryland]

6. Put some Rush (the band on). Even the Flu bug can't stand Rush!

[Bake]

7. I'll try anything! Even Rush!

I hope it doesn't kill me.



Bake

[Bake]

21. OK, I tried Rush ... a little Tom Sawyer ...

All it did was make me sicker. Nice try though.

9. I"m so sorry, my dear Bake...

Please take care of yourself, and chase those damn bugs away!

Fluids, and rest...your body will kill the virus.

[Bake]

12. Fluids! Ha! Bourbon?

My dear Cal Peggy!

Fluids seem to help. Or at least I don't care at this point!

10. This knocked one of the guys that works for me out for FIVE days. He still sounds like shit...

Get you some soup.
If there is a Jewish Deli near you, get your ass there and get a pint or two of chicken noodle soup.

[RobertEarl]

11. sauerkraut

colds and flus hate sauerkraut. i can hardly stand it but whenever i get a touch of the bug the cabbage and vinegar runs it off. hope this helps.

[Bake]

13. Geez, I think I'll stick with what I've got.

Can't stand sauerkraut when I'm NOT sick!



Bake

[RobertEarl]

16. i once was like that

but now i feel so much better. all the time. i cook a piece of meat with a can of it and that makes it lots easier to swallow.

[LynneSin]

15. I'd give you a hug but you're kinda icky right now

So imagine me faux hugging you

[Bake]

17. Thanks, I feel better already.

In a fax-faux-pseudo-kind of way.





Bake

[Bake]

18. And by the way, I gotta have MORE COWBELL!!

Bake

[RiffRandell]

19. I'm sorry you're sick and I hope you feel better but I have to ask,

did you get a flu shot?

[Bake]

20. No I did not.

I get this approx once a year, whether I get a shot or not. Is it the flu? I don't know. All i know is I've got a fever, coughing up crud, nose running like a faucet, aches, feel like poopy. A Z-pack usually knocks it out.

Of course, that means I've gotta go to the doc to get a scrip for a Z-pack..

Bake

[TZ]

24. LOL

I actually almost went there. Almost...

[Bake]

22. Oh shit I think I'm gonna die ...

This is awful ... fever's 101+ ...

Bake

[redqueen]

23. :(

Yes, it does suck. Hope it goes away quickly.

[Bake]

25. OK, this still sucks. No better. I think I already died.

Weird dreams, too. Falling into darkness, gets darker and darker ... wake up in a cold sweat ...

This really sucks.

See y'all on the other side.



Bake

[TZ]

26. Here some good music to cheer you up

Pretty sure you told me you like Delbert McClinton and Lee Roy Parnell.

[Bake]

27. I loves me some Delbert!!

I thought for a minute it was going to be a Rush rick-roll ....

but noooo ... you're a saint ... I feel like poopy ... but that helps!!



Bake

[Bake]

29. And Lee Roy too!

That boy can play! Ain't got no bidness in Nashville, where real musidcians go to die ....



Bake

[TZ]

31. Yep those two guys are pretty talented.

And like my boys in Rush, not much recognized in the mainstream.

[libodem]

28. send out for

Chinese won ton soup if you can't make your own chicken soup. Hope they deliver. That stuff saves lives.

[Bake]

30. I need it!!!! Chicken noodel won ton soup!

That's the ticket!



Bake

[Bake]

32. No shit, people, I really feel like hell on a stick.

This is freakin' awful. I ain't jokin'. Fever's 102.

Bake

[libodem]

33. Have you tried

Morton, tylenol, or asprin, to reduce your fever?
