Shoes, Ships, and Sealing Wax

It's that hubris thing, isn't it?

I've been around a lot of sick people the last few weeks. Victor had the flu, half my office had the flu, most of the other half of the office had a cold. I've been downing snake oil and sleeping ten hours a night and eating spinach and broccoli, determined to avoid getting sick.

And it was working.

Then my ex got the flu. He gives me a hard time about my mostly-vegetarian diet (vegetables are what food eats, he likes to tell me). so I started bragging about how, being all healthy and mostly-vegetarian, viruses were bouncing off me like bullets off Superman's chest, ha HA!

I left the office about an hour ago, sore throat, headache, sneezing, shivering.

I'm not going to tell him.
