Since we just got into the new year and the first month is almost up. Who is unfortunate enough to get sick and no Hangovers from parties don't count. Sadly I have. Though first part was from something I ate the second part was a late Christmas gift from my new roommate weeks of coughing and making me use up all my Gatorade.

Yeah, I got sick.  Mrs steak got sick first.  Before Christmas.  She would take it easy for a couple of days, feel mostly better, and drink that night and then feel poorly again.  After two and a half weeks of that, I finally got the bug too.  On my second day, I went to the doctor and got a prescription for antibiotics.  She went to the doctor the next day and learned her illness had progressed to pneumonia.  She usually doesn't like going to the doctor, preferring home remedies and whatnot.  She also didn't want to get a flu vaccine when I asked back in November.  Needless to say, I have convinced her that next winter we both get vaccinated (in hindsight, I should have done it without her this time) and that she needs to go to the doctor if she is sick for three days or more.

When I was at the Atlanta Braves game last year, I pigged out on a footlong hot dog with chili and cheese and I got a large Coke to go with it. I had to vomit twice. Footlongs and large Cokes don't mix.

We ALWAYS get sick this time of year, passing it from one to the other in a cycle of sickness. It's glorious. This year wasn't too bad though. We've been sick here and there, but never for long periods of time.

I've had a cold this year, but I got over it.

No. It got over you crow. It got over YOU.

Oh, did it?

Don't feel bad Crow it happens to us all.

It's cool.

I've only had bad headaches. Now that I think about it, I haven't been sick in quite a while.

Really hoping this winter's (2014/2015) sicknesses are over, but I have a feeling they are just beginning.
