I'b Sick II

The illness is still afflicting me, and I've done today what I've not done in the history of my professional career; taken a day off sick. I currently feel like Millhouse:

-----
ok, this is where the picture of Millhouse pale and shivering from being infected by the monkey should be, by I google image searched "millhouse sick" and couldn't find it; all that was there was a disturbing pic of him boffing Lisa

So off to the GP I went. It's not the nicest of places really, it was packed with old people at death's door and squealing children. Moochers. It did kinda dawn on me how evolution has a very dry sense of humor; we're born into this world dependant, lacking motor functions, wrinkly and with the propensity to sh*t our pants, and in the end that's how we go out.

I don't even like babies, we've had one living with us for 5 days now and all it does is screech all hours and contribute nothing. It does seem quite strange in evolutionary terms why we're so defenseless when young, wheras other animals have to learn to walk and talk within minutes to ensure they don't get eaten by lions.

So I saw the doctor, went "Aaah" and had a finger shoved up the bumhole. The diagnosis? Throat infection. I've had throat infections before and it's never been this bad, so I assume it's some sort of tropical killer strain that I may have picked up from the exotic fruits section at Sainsburys. The good news is I'm currently swabbing my throat with cotton buds and storing them to infect my enemies.

Anyway I'd guess I'd better try and make some lunch, no easy task considering I can't swallow.

GASP! Skillz taking a day off work!? They'll probably dock your pay for that. Or falsely claim you were faking it.

You should've blended your lunch to make some kind of lunch-based smoothie. Actually, that's kind of an awesome idea; it's perfect for the fast-pace of modern life. Tuna panini smoothie, anyone?

Cram the tuna panini, a banana, a muffin and a packet of crisps into a thermos of coffee, shake vigourously then serve.

Blaaaargh!

Get well soon. Or get a lion

Hmmm... I'm not sure where I was going with that lion-thing at the end there. Something to do with eating babies or somesuch. I got distracted...

tim - yeah shocker I know, my claims of having Wolverine-like healing powers are now banished. Nice idea on the blending, but I'm a veggie so picking out tiny fish bits from the smoothie would be uber-difficult.

IDV - On a semi-unrelated note, I was wondering the other day how cool it would be if all the food you ate came out the other end perfectly formed. Though I guess passing a panini would cause some distress.

You're not a fake veggie? Y'know, one of those ones that eats fish because they're not real animals? Wow - that takes dedication!

A salad smoothie, then?

Well I'm about to make mashed potato for lunch, so I guess that's already a smoothie.

Real veggie, but may have to turn intoa fake veggie come next month when I go to Japan.

That reassembled food items thing: Did it inspire the squeezy-play-doh-beard-mr-potato-face-idea at T-Birds?

If it did: Eewww! Never mind the panini - just never eat pineapple!

That and popping candy!

Well, I hope you are feeling much better, but I can''t get past the Millhouse and Lisa comment.

There is a LOT of disturbing Futurama and Simpsons porn out there, google images kind of surprises me with the things that it'll bring up...
