Whee!
Whoo, boy, Zithromax is my friend! I feel HUMAN again, to the point where I fielded a time-critical help page change this morning without batting an eyelash, finished the other stuff I was working on and whipped out a web page for a product manager. And I'm not slumped over the computer or wishing I was 1) dead, 2) at home or 3) in the Carribean.
*blinkblink* I can work with this, oh yes.
*Rrrrrumble*
However, perhaps having the cafe lunch special (burrito with your choice of toppings) wasn't the smartest thing I could have done. Normally I don't have any unpleasant gastric side effects with Zithromax, but my tummy is doing a remarkable impression of Krakatoa at the moment.
No pain, mind you, just lots of rumbling. Tonight should be interesting. . .
And while we're on the subject
Allow me to pass along some wisdom from the SFF.Net newsgroup of Laura Anne Gilman:
For those of you who watch what you eat, here's the final word on nutrition and health. It's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting medical studies:
- The Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than the Americans.
- The Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than the Americans.
- The Japanese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than the Americans.
- The Italians drink excessive amounts of red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than the Americans.
- The Germans drink a lot of beers and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than the Americans.
CONCLUSION: Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you. (courtesy Walter Jon Williams)
