faster pussycat... type! type!

Yes, I hope you licked the receiver! Do it! Awesome! If he gets REALLY sick, it will almost be worth your going to work. Do it and go home. And yes, I think the WWAD bracelets (in tasteful sepia) would be fabo. I'd buy 'em a lot faster than those stupid Lance Armstrong thingies.

Does this mean you can call the 900 number lines and get the sex workers sick?

do you mean get them sick with just the power of my voice? or would I get them sick by licking my phone receiver while speaking to them?

either way, I think they are safe from me. because a: I wouldn't do that to the hard working gals and guys in the phone sex industry, they didn't do anything to deserve it. and b: talking to me on the phone is one of your safer ways of talking to me right now. email, phone, chat... remote communications. it is those who are in my general proximity, physically, who are in danger.

Ewww - I really hate it when I get sick all of a sudden, like that. You're not alone, though, Veronica woke up with a raging headache, runny nose, and a cough, so she's hanging with mom today. Feel better, but not before you lick the Monkee's phone receiver! =)

umm... might i suggest spitting on the Monkee's phone receiver instead of actually licking it? unless, of course, you want to be that up close and personal with the thing the Monkee talks into all day long. :)

loon... you are a genius. i didn't even think of that.... i must be feverish. of COURSE i don't want to lick anything his hand has touched.

Don't know if your a drinker, but a nice hot toddie really is fantastic for such occasions... I might recommend a sipping glass of Crown Royal with a dash of Sprite/Your fav non colored fiz, with a dash of cajun pepper and some fresh squeezed lemon (or lime (It's the citrus))... Oh - And if this appeals to you, try a shot and a half of night-time NyQuil first... Then as you sip the toddie, lay back in bed, curl your toes around the sheets, read something very slowly, and you'll most certainly wake up tomarrow feeling, well, at-the-least, better. If not healed! **DISCLAIMER: Remember to set alarm clock prior to ritual!

Sleep tight Jodi

: )

i left work early and it looks like i should have stopped at the liquor store on the way home. instead i stopped at jamba juice. for a strawberry [soon to be renamed] tsunami with an immunity boost. soothing on the throat and citrusy good.

Ah Jodiferous - I didn't know that Jamba had stores in the beautiful North West... I get by there two or three times a week myself... I like the protein berry pizzaz and always add the imunity boost for good measure... Yum yum!

I'm not sure booze has any real medicinal qualities... I think its more the (usually) good sleep that follows a stiff drink... I started adding the NyQuil because it dries up the sinus' which helps sleep along... Combined, its a sleepful remedy...

Good luck!

Sleep tight!

Take care of yourself Jodi. Don't be stupid and try the whole one year shit. I need your intellect to compensate for my lacking ability. Balance, remember.

Oh, don't lick or spit. Just my opinion.

i just don't understand why people don't use the force anymore these days.

take care. maybe amelia could take you out flying, some good fresh air could help. ;)

No, it's large quantities of vodka and orange to cure a cold or the flu, the vodka numbs the effects, the vit c does the business. Now, do this properly, lick the rim of his cup and suck the spoon he uses to stir hi tea/coffee.

I wouldn't be so sure that remote communication is safe - I woke up a horrible sore throat, and my ears are throbbing. Thanks a lot! =)

Sometimes, I wish I had the power to punch people in the face over simple TCP/IP. No cures here, as I never get sick. But I do get headaches all the time at work, so I ve been taking beer in my lunch, and having a few out back with my usual lunchtime Dunhill’s. The headache stays, but buzz last well until quitting time, which ultimately is more important. The work place environment is not meant for people with finer temperaments... I have never found a work place where I could feel properly adjusted. Nor have I found great ease with those that I have worked with. Office politics, and romances aside, I find most of the people to be untrustworthy weasels, greed heads, and shameless opportunists. I tell myself “Keep you eye on the prize, man, you will only have hold it together until retirement. That’s only another 30 years.”

I prefer hot sake - loosens the chest, head, and mentality! That and some pickled ginger and you're set!

As for spit, I had a biology teacher that said it's hard to catch anything cold-wise orally because mouth spit is far less contagious than nasal or eyeball "juice" (for lack of a better, less gross word). Got any q-tips?

I think loons onto something. Spit don't lick. Ew. Okay...that totally sounded like something else. [Topic change!] Is that your picture over there? I don't think I've ever seen you before!
