Sick in the Head

After weeks of exposure to drippy noses, hacking coughs, and malaise-stricken students, a virus has sneaked past my defenses and invaded my nasopharynx. So here I am with a head cold. I'm hoping it will be short like it was for Susan. The two best descriptions of viruses I ever read were: "A piece of bad news wrapped in a protein" and "A chemical with a life cycle". Aren't they great?

I am seriously craving some ice cream...for my throat...ahem. Maybe I can look pitiful enough to convince Susan to go buy me some. I have a feeling that if I really want it I am going to have to hit Winn Dixie myself. Wish me luck!
