I swear I have never met any of these people

It seems bloggers are dropping like flies from what sounds like the same nasty bug I've been down with for nearly two weeks:

John in DC: Americablog:

Someone. Euthanize me. Now.

I gave up on trying to sleep. Is something going around, cuz man it hit me hard right around bedtime. Ugh. This means I'll either be blogging a lot Thursday out of boredom, or I'll be in bed all day begging for someone to smother me. I'll let you know which.


Kos:

I'm feeling a bit under the weather. Sore throat, achy joints, congestion, etc. So I'm resting and overdosing on fluids and vitamin C trying to head this thing off before it becomes a full-fledged illness.


Waveflux:

I came home early today with a soul-destroying cold. It came on all of a sudden last night; this morning my throat felt like three miles of bad gravel road. You know how it is.

So apologies for the dearth of posts. I expect to be home tomorrow. I know I owe some of you an Amazing Race piece, and I'll get on it if this shuddery feeling I have doesn't turn into a fever. Man, I hate being sick this time of year. I gotta go find the damn thermometer now.


It's a goddamn conspiracy, I tell ya...

UPDATE: Maron has been ranting about his cold for two days now, and tonight Sam Seder was coughing like I have for the last two weeks.

I ain't kidding you, folks...something's up. It's Captain Trips, man, cooked up in a lab in Karl Rove's basement apartment at the White House...

ANOTHER UPDATE: Jon Stewart was drinking tea with honey on last night's DAILY SHOW.
