At least for me. I’ve been sick the bulk of my time here, and getting some things done from my room. But the coughing is getting worse, and I now have a headache. The nurses are coming to take me to an emergency room.
Update to come…
Update: 2:46 pm
Back in the room, using the coffeemaker to heat up the water to put in my Ramen cup…
As expected, I now have an antibiotic, a decongestant, and a cough medicine strong enough to put me down for a little bit. Thanks to everyone for the calls and well-wishes. Good news coming tomorrow, I promise…
Update #2: 9:59pm
I really need to take a hot bath, but there’s a break in a main up the street and I have no running water.

Ike:
Take care of yourself. Have some chicken soup … or Mexican food (it always works for me).
I knew things were bad, but I didn’t know how bad. Sorry that you are still so sick.
I sent your link to some people at work…not my work anymore, mind you. We have people in Muskogee. Just wanted to see how everyone was doing.
Now I’m sick…
Arrrgh.
Thank god it’s not what you had though.
Glad we had the chance to grab a bite while you were in town.
Take care!
