Lake George’s Revenge October 11, 2005 ~ 11:08 am
Posted by Julie in : Daily Grind , trackbackI liked Lake George fine, despite the near constant drizzle. However, I don’t think the Lake liked me. I came down with an awful sore throat Saturday night and it didn’t get any better as the weekend progressed. Since I felt better in the cool air than in the super-heated cabin we were staying in, we did still get out and about a fair amount (took a drive around the Lake, visited Fort Ticonderoga briefly, saw Lake Champlain, and hiked around an underground river and some natural rock formations), but the long and short of it is that I have a cold. And I can barely talk right now. My sore throat is feeling a little better now, but I’m sneezing my head off and am staying home today. Half of my job is talking on the phone, and that’s pretty close to impossible at the moment. So I’m laying on the couch, watching TiVo, with Kleenex stuffed up my nose. It’s a pretty picture. And I’m thanking PA for this, since she had it last week. Thank you, PA, for breathing on me on Thursday and fucking up my vacation. Stoopid cow.
Two things making my illness better: that the fucking Yankees got knocked out of the playoffs last night (making my eventual return to work a lot better, since I have been getting shit about the Sox all season), and the Steeler’s win last night. I’m waiting to hear what the final word is on Ben Roethlisberger’s knee injury, which could determine what happens to us the rest of the season (hi, our back up is Tommy Maddox -we’re fucked if Ben is out.), but it was great to see the Bus back in action again. And also wonderful to see the Governator’s prediction that the Chargers would win go up in flames.
And who the hell designed the Chargers’ helmets? A third grader? This is a fine example of Retro Gone Wrong:
