Caution: This Post May Give You Swine Flu

by Blogger Dad on October 20, 2009

I’m wearing a full body biological suit while typing this, as I may have swine flu and I don’t want you to get it, too.

My son was diagnosed with the swine flu on Sunday and while he is getting better (thankfully) I have a fever and am feeling like crap. I went to the doc today and got tested, though their test is taking a few days since I didn’t want to pay for the express version. However, I am being treated with Tamiflu and some other medicines. I’m hoping my wife doesn’t get it.

So, in short, no real post today. Once I’m feeling better, I have two posts practically writing themselves right now re: the swine flu.

If you’ve got a minute to spare, please check out Sean Platt’s video and help him make his dream come true. If you’re helping him, you’re also helping me since we have so many joint projects which could become a reality even more quickly with this job. So thank you in advance.

Also, don’t forget the big Halloween scary product contest over at Tracy’s site. You want a cheeseburger in a can, don’t you?

Man, they really need to stop calling it Swine flu. It makes it sound so dirty and primal. How about Charlotte’s Web Flu or Babe: Pig in the City Flu? There are lots of lovable pigs I wouldn’t mind getting the sniffles from.

Hope you feel better soon.

Pork chop flu or, for a little south of the border fun, carnitas flu would be cool.

Thanks for the shout out Dave, we’re catching up!

I hope you feel better! There’s nothing worse than having the flu around the house. Oh, and I like the suit :)
