I meant to post volumes today, but in the succinct words of The Governor, "Not gonna happen." I'm fending off what may or may not be a cold. My head is stuffy and I feel achy and my throat feels thick. I find it difficult to take medicine in this condition. Plain Tylenol is not enough; Ny-quil is too much. I'm in symptom purgatory. Tonight I'll be taking no chances. I'll be treating symptoms I think I might get. Tomorrow I'm heading off on vacation, and there's no better way to start a vacation than sinus pain at 33,000 feet.
Assuming my small-animal sacrifices to the airline gods are accepted, I will arrive safely in Maui tomorrow evening. I will be returning...I was going to give a date here, but perhaps I should leave that open-ended. I will return. Eventually.
I don't plan on blogging while I'm gone, so unless The Professor ponies up a few thoughts, you're out of luck. I thought about asking someone to guest blog, but everyone that came to mind is a better blogger than I am, and I don't want to lose traffic just because I came back from vacation.
Now I'm off to take a second look at what I packed. In my clouded frame of mind, I may have thrown in a few sweaters and jeans when all I really need is my swimsuit and a toothbrush.
Aloha.
Posted by Cathy at January 5, 2005 03:11 PMI have the perfect way to relieve (numb) the sinus pain at 33,000 feet. 2mg of ativan at the airport followed by a couple of the $8 airport beers. You will be asleep by the roll out a MSP and won't wake up until Maui. The only way to fly.
Posted by: DaveP at January 5, 2005 04:24 PMToo late for Samhain, too early for Imbolc. Pele probably won't help until you get to Hawaii. Your luggage may be history.
Have a safe trip.
Sacrifice a virgin for me.

Posted by: Pam at January 7, 2005 04:40 PMYou know, someone could just guest blog in this comment space. I'm sure Cathy would thank you when she got back. Anyone want to step up to the plate?
Posted by: Doug at January 8, 2005 07:24 PMHi everyone,
I forgot the address to log-in to MT, so I imagine most of you will miss this, but eh...
Just wanted you all to know I miss y'all. Not the 20 degree weather, however. It's 83 right now. I'm off to the beach. Again. Bwah ha ha ha ha! More later if I can drum up the log-in address.
