Sick, *again*

After my west coast tour last week, and a trip to Chicago to visit some good friends, I’ve come home and am sick. Dang it! I hate that. I guess I’ll start using Airborne and see if that helps.
Thursday I’m off to NYC for a wedding, hopefully I’ll feel better by then so I don’t infect the entire party. I’m looking forward to seeing a bit of NYC while I’m there as well. I haven’t been to the city for a few years, so that should be pretty fun. I get back Sunday, then Monday am off to Austin for the week, for the Austin Game Conference – drop me an email if you want to meet up!
I still feel like I get sick a lot more than I used to. Pretty much ever since I moved down to the SF Bay area. I think it’s due to stress, or allergies, or both. Time to start sorting that out, once all this travel has calmed down. I need to solve it if I’m going to stay in the SF Bay, which is my current plan…
Anyway. *hachoo*

    Hey Sniffles…
    It couldn’t be all the airplane recycled germs you’ve been gettin’ could it? Or how about the fact that you consider the light from your monitor as a replacement for Vitamin D OR that you have not taken a proper holiday in years…
    I say go plan a vacation, get some quality Mark time in and try soaking up some SF Indian Summer weather. Blaming it on a city – geesh! not like you live in Three Mile Island or anything…
    Airborne — it works! So does visiting friends more often. Chicago is a very healthy town – come back!

    yeah, I agree:
    – get some vacation time. These are the first signs your body is giving you that it is rebelling! Next up, cancer.. or flesh eating disease… or gelatinous cube or something.
    – sleep more (yeah, I know, physician heal thy self.
    – wash hands often – ESPECIALLY on airplanes.
    Have fun in NY. I prescribe a stop at the whiskey bar for drinks and site-seeing!

    Hey man — if it makes you feel any better, I just got back from Chicago, and I’m sick now. So don’t go thinking Chicago is some kind of healthy town, as the previous comment would have you believe. 🙂 Seriously, it’s those damn airplanes!
    Hope all is well. Nyquil cherry flavor rocks!

    It’s so much easier to blame my frequent illnesses on SF and not my lifestyle. 🙂 Darn it!
    I’ve been putting off creating a quiet space in my life for a long time… no doubt this has a lot to do with it. :-/
    Thanks for your replies!
