Not surprisingly, now that I know a number of people in person that read this site, I don't talk a lot in detail about things I'd rather not talk about in person. Or at least to too many people.
Of those forbidden topics, I don't always include talking about being suddenly ill with a stomach bug or something. Sometimes I talk about it, sometimes not.
I often talk about snot and other functions, though I usually use euphemisms.
I mean just to be polite.
They all know what I'm talking about anyway so the effect I see on those hearing my words is the same: "why are you telling me this?"
And the answer is the same: "Because it makes me feel just a little less sick if I can make someone mildly uncomfortable. Isn't that obvious?"
Anyways, last week I had a stomach bug. And apparently is a communicable one - folks at work, and even other bloggers here in Boston were enjoying it!
That's another thing that makes me feel less bad - if others have the same thing, I feel, oddly, more normal.
That's kinda creepy, I know.
Funny I didn't write about it then. Guess I was feeling embarrassed about it.
THAT- feeling embarrassed - is something that happens to me all the time. I hate it because it makes me wrap myself in a little ball and hide from everyone.
And I'm not sure why - certainly in this case, since everyone else has had something like this at some time or another.
And, hey, everything comes down to it...
So now that I've got you all thinking about it... you're welcome!

You know you're crazy, right?
Oh boy. Trouble. Now I've got THAT song stuck in my head in the workplace. Thanks for that.
I'm so glad my indisposition was able to brighten your day. I hope you're feeling better. I'm back in the gym and all that good crap. I said, crap. Which they didn't say in the song. Wonder why?
Finally watched this with sound.
Wow. Wrong is so many ways.
