• Well I'm down to my very last stages of my Flu. I got the running nose, which actually isn't running so much, so it isn't too much of a problem. The main problem right now is my hard coughing, which is probably trying to get rid of the build up in phlegm down my throat, or my larynx or lungs or whatever gives in first. The problem is that the coughing is sooo hard that my voice is completely shot, and I'm talking like a guy who smoked too many tobacco is his lifetime. It also hurts like hell to my head when I cough, and I feel like my brain is about ready to explode.

  I've mentioned once before, that I am tired of people using "how are you doing?" as their standard greeting, because do they really care?! Just say "hello" is what I say. Anyways, I finally went back to work last night, and the same exact people who asks me "how are you doing?" had to do a double take when I answered "not so good" (in that hoarse voice that I have right now). Their reaction made the devil in my head laugh with glee, because they were stammering their next comments, as if embarassed that they brought up the fact that I wasn't doing so well.

  When I woke up today, I found out that my old english / wheaton terrier mix learned a new trick today. He learned to open up sealed plastic wrapped bags that contain dog treats! That's something my Akita / Australian Shepperd mix never got to do. I swear, this newer dog of mine can be too smart for his own good.

  Finally, I have a more persistent mouse problem at home, and it can be amusing watching my dogs try and catch it. However, unlike the previouse mice that entered my house, this one seems to like staying in the house as opposed to the garage like the other ones. I've been too nice to the mice before in the past, letting them live after capture, but this one is taking advantage of it and abusing it's trespass. Sticky pad time!
