Weekend

[kumir_k9]

I've been sick since Tuesday night and while it's changed shape, it's carried on right through today. Today I'm down to a persistent hacking cough, though I think I brought up my first pieces of lung today, so I have high hopes that's the beginning of the end.

Chris and I spent many hours this weekend shovelling. He's been sick as well so we go out in short shifts to shovel and then come in and collapse weakly for a while before trying again. We finally got one car out of the snow yesterday and with the plow were able actually get it out to the street so I could go pick up Monique at the airport, though she did have to sit there and wait a few hours.

Sadly between sickness and snow I missed the 7V wrap party. :-(

Today we have to try and dig out the other car and clear the front walk to the house before this crap freezes. Should be fun... not.

Anyway, thanks to everyone who responded to Friday's post about the haunted house. We're still a long way from the numbers needed to say it will work, so please check it out and if you feel you can help in any capacity let us know. Randy did a far more eloquent post on his 2020 Vision Quest blog at http://2020visionquest.org/Blog/. He even included pictures of past events.

Grum, the Bean and I have had this same illness for nearly two weeks now. Sadly, that cough just does not die.

I was also trapped by the snow, which made me very sad.

It is hard for me to commit these days with Jack, but I would be happy to help in whatever capacity I can with the haunted house!

I have every confidence that a baby, a "dead" body, a lot of red-dyed pasta, and plenty of corn-syrup-based fake blood would be an awesome if messy addition to a haunted house.

I had a good hacking cough a couple of weeks ago. Not sure what it was, but it took a while to clear.

Hope you feel better soon, don't hurt yourself shoveling.

I too missed the wrap party, mostly because my parkinglot is an arctic tundra.

Mark had the flu for a week of fevers and then a month of coughing. I hope yours is way quicker to leave!

The party ended up being much smaller than expected because of the snow, though it was still fun. We should all encourage our fearless GM to hold a second one.

Hope you feel better quickly! I often end up with the cough-that-never-leaves, and have been oddly lucky this year so far to not get really sick, just minor single-day thing (*knocks on wood*).
