Lots of folks seem to be hit by norovirus this year. Sorry to hear, Sue! Hope you start feeling better rapidly. ;(

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Poor you, Sue!

Right now at work, if it isn't noro taking people out it is flu-turning-into-bronchitis. I made a point of telling my officemate that my absence was due to nothing contagious.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That sounds awful, Sue! Get away from her, virus!

Ooh, flaming sushi! Where is this wonder found, Suzi?

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

flu-turning-into-bronchitis

Would you look at that? I'm a trend-setter. I had that WEEKS before your people.

Yep. Or you were Patient Zero...

Ha! Don't accuse me of not bringing anything back from Paris for anyone... though if you want to get technical, the little one was Patient Zero. Four-year olds are snotty.

Where is this wonder found, Suzi?

Tataki South in SF. It was a nummy spicy roll, don't ask what was in it, I don't recall. But they set the corner of the platter on fire. FIRE!

My old office is depressing. The new cubicles are horrible and while it is supposed to be "open office" it feels like a worse cube farm than before. I have a new appreciation for our new cubes in Denver.

There was a kid at the supermarket yesterday running up to people to cough on them before running back to mom. He was making a beeline towards Hubby, who told him he would be happy to share bio-fluids with him, but in a more salty manner. Mom wanted Hubby thrown out of the store. Unfortunately for her, we've known the management of that store for 20 years, and they were no more thrilled at having a little disease vector running around than Hubby was. Mom was escalating to demanding cops to deal with "that horrible man who threatened my child", and Hubby said he'd be happy to pull in the CDC and CPS, because she obviously had no issue with spreading a disease and child protective services might have issues with how she's treating her kid. All store management did was casually suggest Hubby find more diplomatic ways to express his pique.
