I've got Rota (Rooter) virus


(By Erik)

It’s a sleet-covered Sunday here in Oklahoma City.

We haven’t updated the blog recently because I’ve been sick. It started last Monday with a one-day dose of the flu — not fun at all. But that went away rather quickly and, just as I thought things were getting back to normal, I was struck down with an awful stomach flu that I’m just now starting to get over.

Jeanie refers to what I have as “roto-virus” (at least that’s how it sounds when she says it). The phrase reminds me of “Roto-Rooter,” and that’s a pretty accurate description of what the virus does to your system. But I’m doing better now, though I’m still subsisting on a diet of Gatorade and the occasional milkshake.
