Teh sick, and Q on TV

[twirlgrrl]

I'm sick! The plague that's been making its way around my household finally got to me. This is one of the nastier viruses and I was really hoping to skip it. What I hate about it, aside from the aches, shakes and chills, is that it starts out with a little cough, and then by day 2 (at least for me) it's all the way lodged in my chest, with a very deep nonproductive cough. For a person with asthma, this is the worst part. I've been using inhalers trying to make sure my lungs don't get too clogged up, but I just hate this feeling. I'm also trying not to cough much, and using expectorant + suppressant for that. I managed to work a full day yesterday in spite of this, but by evening I had to crawl into bed because I had awful chills and shaking. Woke up for more medicine at 4am and now I'm checking LJ because I didn't get to look at it at all yesterday and I am addicted to you guys.

My dear friends Brinn and Andrew own a restaurant here in SF called Q, and it'll be on the Food Network sometime soon! They don't know exactly when the film crew is going to show up, so they're on high alert. I'm so excited for them! They'll be on the show called Diners and something; I think it's the one with that guy with the backwards sunglasses. I saw it at George's house--George watched a lot of Food Network in spite of (or maybe because of) not being able to eat.

I sure miss George.

Anyway, I don't know when it will air, but if I find out I'll alert my FL. So exciting! I'm so proud of B & A.

Ah, it's probably the Guy Fieri shows Diners, Drive Ins and Dives or something like that.

Yay! I thought you might know. I wish you lived down the street so we could watch it together when it airs.

[slinksgirl.livejournal.com]

ME TOO! That would be so nice :)

Hey - I'm so sorry to hear you're ill. Can we drop food (chicken soup) by on your doorstep or something? I could just ring the door bell at run away. ;)

Also, I've eaten at Q, and I like it.

[twirlgrrl.livejournal.com]

Aw, that's so nice! But we have everything we need. Thanks so much.

Yay, Q! They've really done quite well. The restaurant business is not an easy one.

God I feel guilty every time I hear you cough. It really is an evil cold isn't it?

[twirlgrrl.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's no fun, for sure. But there's no need to feel guilty, you couldn't help it!

I'll keep an eye out for that show. I love Food Network, but hardly ever get to watch TV.

Do I get to use my "swine flew" icon here? If that's what you have, then perhaps you'll be mostly immune to harsher future strains. Doesn't make it any fun now though, does it? I hope it'll pass very quickly. Being sick is crummy :(
