See what you can find over there. Hey, maybe you should pick up a few things when you are back in the States. Feel better soon, okay? I'm thinking about you and sending those happy/get well thoughts your way.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and in the great state of Oregon, Sudafed is now a prescription because of the major meth problem they have there.

I know it's probably the last thing you want to do, but when I've been sick nothing's made me feel better than a shower and clean clothes. Don't worry about dishes or any crap like that. Just get that website done and then focus on generating white blood cells!

It's really hard to get here in Missouri as I teach in the #1 Meth County of the U.S. Would that help?<BR/><BR/>Also, I wouldn't worry about ever losing your sense of humor.
