Voices from nowhere and voices from the larger towns
Filled our head full of dreams, and turned our world upside down
There was Frankie Lymon, Bobby Fuller, Mitch Ryder (they were rockin')
Jackie Wilson, Shangrilas, Young Rascals (they were rockin')
Spotlight on Martha Reeves, let's don't forget James Brown

<p>I went to the doctor today (first time in over a decade) because I've had this chest cold that I just could not kick. Sure enough, I've got <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acute_bronchitis">bronchitis</a>. Fucking bronchitis. (<em>Asshole</em>). I've already missed a couple days of work.</p>

<p>And now I'll have to miss a couple more now. And I really don't want to. This wave at work is kind of time intensive for me. I have 3 things to do that are 1) easy and short, 2) a little harder but in an area I feel good about exploring, but still relatively short and 3) long and in a domain where I flounder.</p>

<p>After the end of this wave is when I start my big trip to New Zealand / Australia / Hawaii. So, I really want to tie up all lose ends before I go and not have to worry about anything back home from the road.</p>

<p>I guess I just have to keep my head down and power through.</p>

<p>Oh, yeah. I stocked up on soup &amp; crackers, Mega-Antioxidant juice, raisin bran and I happened to get some comics in the mail. Swirl all those together with a dash of some spicy food with a side order of a couple hot baths and you should get one healthy me at the end of the weekend or so.</p>

<p>I really hate being sick.</p>
