500
This is not exactly what I had in mind for my 500th post.
Sick. Very sick. The only time I remember feeling sicker was when I had mono back in jr. high. Or, as the kids call it today, "middle school." My temp measured under 100ยบ F today for the first time since Tuesday night. I couldn't eat. I haven't slept. I was physically unable to remove myself from the couch for three days. On the surface, that last part sounds good. But it wasn't. I watched enough programming on HGTV during that time for my manhood to be questioned. And I couldn't even put up a fight when it was.
So I'll be back to posting, commenting, working, talking, eating, smiling, standing, walking, and watching manly television shows as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience.

have you seen a doctor? or is it a flu that you have no control over?
whatever it is, all this non-moving is helping and you're doing the right thing. this will pass.
and when it does, i'll resume questioning your manhood.
happy 500!

Watching manly television is just one of the many cures for Man Sickness.
Sorry you are sick Omar :(

PS: Do you have a little bell by your bed so your wife can hear you when you need something?
I sure hope so.

ick, blech, yuck, you got the crud. it seems like this season's flu has been particularly horrible- every. single. person. that I know has had it, and no one has been able to get over it in less than 10 days. rest, liquids, and tv seems to be the only combo that can fix it. unless it's the plague... you haven't developed any buboes, have you?
oh yeah, and it's awesome that you hit 500 posts! all without ever revealing the names of your family members, or resorting to volecide for material! bravo, my friend. BRAVO!!

Oh, nooo! That's WAY too many days with a fever...I'm so sorry.
I hope you start to feel better soon, so you can eat and sleep and walk and stuff.

BTW: thanks for the cool geography link-it's really fun and slightly addictive.
It's sad that I can get a 9 on the S.American test and only a 6 on the N. America one (darn Canada gets me everytime).

sorry to hear that you're sick, omar. but i have it on good authority that a strong dose of HGtv, like any good medication, can drive away even the worst of sicknesses. and after it's over you'll probably have enough do-it-yourself tips to re-establish your manhood in no time.
i hope you feel better very soon.

Is this another four truths and a lie? You'll be back to talking? If my memory serves, you really try at all costs to avoid talking.

I've been sick twice this year, which is 2 times more than I was last year. It sucks.
Let us not forget though, that one of the manliest things you can do is take a nap on the couch. Go ahead Omar, be a man.

Too bad whatever virus you have decided to come out and party for your 500th, like the rest of us. We'll party in silence while you rest and get better!

All the cool people say "Jr. High"!!! I guess you and me are cool, and that is it.
Does your wife pat your hand and say "poor little bunny"?
I hope you are feeling better soon!
Stay away from HGTV!

That sounds miserable! Hope you feel better soon.

My husband said the EXACT same thing as you with the mono/jrhigh/fever/sick thing. I think the government is weakening us so we will vote for hilary. lol

PS: Did you notice how I didn't ask for anything...like in case of your demise?
It was in honor of your 500th post.
