I feel like thrice-ground meat being poured into a sausage casing. (Think “LiquidMeat“)
Flight was good, once Kap’n Kangaroo bounced us to our gate in Detroit.
Arrived on the tarmac with the tripartite requisite met for coming home:
I have a cold – a really bitchin’ lung-shredder of a cold
I strained myself lugging 400+ pounds of luggage around (strained everything, I think)
It is hot, humid, and we have no A/C for some reason known only to Forces of Evil (IRS, Obama, MDOT)
But we’re home. My own bed, my own pillow, my fridge, my remote control, my riding lawn mower, and I can get back to kicking my ca… well, no, I can’t kick my cat anymore. Poor little guy. But I just looked and his gravestone is still in place, so the stone is heavy enough and I buried him deep enough to keep wild animals from snacking. Now I must find a way to explain to my five year old why he isn’t here, when she notices. Damn, damn, damn.
More tomorrow or tonight, depending on how I’m a-feelin’.
Drop me an e:mail if’n you’re out there. I’ll be cruising the moronosphere, trolling for tidbits. I’ve been tidbitless for so long….

Welcome home!
Glad you made it back.
Welcome back! You were missed. I had a really hideous cold/upper respiratory thingy for over a week — hope yours doesn’t last long. I made it through all last winter without a cold, and then managed to get a real whopper in the middle of July … go figure.
Thanks KC, Catman, and ‘Felix!
I did the whole last winter w/o a cold, too, and this one just whomped my butt.
Achey as all hell, fever, and this vile yellow stuff in my lungs and sinuses. I think the headache and muscle/joint aches were the worst part of it – the kitten-weak part has been noteworthy as well.
Ah it could be worse. I could have TB instead. This is a temporary inconvenience at best.
Oops. Screaming child. Must go.
