In the Grip of the Grippe

I guess it’s my turn. Again. Some horrible cold has been making its way through the office over the past couple of weeks, and I suppose when the people I work closest with get it, it’s only a matter of time before I do too. So, today I felt gross. Didn’t sleep well last night and I’m tired. Got a runny nose. I’m achy. No appetite (never ate lunch). I'm irritable. And I'm actually looking forward to watching American Idol tonight. You know the symptoms, and you’ve read about them here before, so I won't go into it again.

Why did I think that because I had a cold in December I was immune now and for the rest of the season? Isn't that how it works? And when is this cold snap going to pass???
