Things I wish I didn't have

In case you've missed me, I've been sick. It seems that small children do indeed collect massive amounts of bacteria and that I am rather adept at both capturing and cultivating them in my own body! I have been sampling cold after cold for the past 9 weeks with only small reprieves during which I lasso the next lucky bacterial/viral contestant. After a fever bout this weekend and a worsened cough, my Polish doctor for the day, Juszczk, has diagnosed me with acute bronchitis. Guess I won't be catching up on the rest of my life for another week or so.
