As I mentioned before, "E" has had the flu the past week. I have pretty much avoided all physical contact with her since she caught the bug. This was for everyone's safety. I have seen it happen too many times. She gets sick, then I get sick, then she gets sick again from me. The flu strain mutates when it reaches the other person and the original person gets the new strain again. Nope, not me. I plan on being healthy during the holidays.
Liar, Liar, pants on fire.
Here I am right now typing from "E"'s computer. I spent the night last night over here and I am totally at risk. I have taken my "Airborne" stuff, but I'm not really sure it will be enough. But I don't care. I miss spending time with her and I am willing to catch her icky cooties if it means I get to see her during the holidays.
I am not a fool though. I will continue to take my medicine and will pump up my Vitamin C count to 5,000mg a day. I read somewhere that you shouldn't take more than 3,000mg of Vitamin C at a time because our body only absorbs that much. Anything greater and it will just be wasted. So I plan on breaking up my 5,000mg into two batches. I have my morning meds and my evening meds. My oh my, I'm such a hypocrondriac some times.
But this paranoia comes in handy. Last week "E" and I were at a party (before she got the flu). I arrived before she did and noticed that my sister was sick at the party. I avoided her like the plague and called "E" to tell her to bring the Airborne stuff with her. She brought it and then she was making fun of me for taking the stuff. She was calling me a hypocrondriac and teasing me. Yeah, it's all fun and games until someone gets sick. Who's laughing now? I can only say this because she knows its the truth. She has even admitted it.
This only strengthens my belief in my paranoia. Now where's my tin-foil beanie? I hear the silent black helicopters now recording my keystrokes.
