Day Five

Today was a quiet day at work; many people out sick.  Seems there is something all around.  The CDC, seriously, says that Collin and Tarrant Counties (that's here in my neck of the woods) are the most impacted by the flu this year.  Several schools have closed throughout the week due to lack of students.  Hence, albeit some are not as fortunate, the top of the list is easy. Today, I am grateful for:

• Not getting the flu.  Even though Kristina was not as fortunate, it seems may near daily regimin of Emergen'C, Amino Vital, GNC Gel Multi, water, and exercise are doing the trick.  I like to tell people I am impervious to your "human diseases."  Also, I've been eating more dirt; i.e. caring less about germs.  I'm not saying I eat rat droppings or anything absurd like that, I just don't think everyone and everything has to be operating room sterile.
• I quiet day at work.
• Testing on my NPI release for my software is successful and ahead of schedule.
• Politics at work is at an all time low.
• Kristina really liked the delicious steak and fresh, oven-baked fries I made for her.
• I had time to get an hour on the bike (indoors).
• The kona coffee I made this AM was awesome, but bloody strong. 
  
• Being smart enough to call it an early night so I can ride in the AM.
• You.
