Outnumbered Two to One

Exercise, thy name is HASAY . If that doesn’t ring a bell, go here .

No, no. Don’t get too close.

I think I have a sinus infection and possibly an ear infection.

I’m also pretty sure the cartoon rendition you see above is a very close facsimile of the appalling bacteria I’m harboring in my nasal cavities. It’s aggravating. I don’t even remember the last time I was able to breathe comfortably through my nose. I’ve become on of those annoying mouth breathers whose Ms sound like Bs and whose Ns sound like Ds.

(I’b sorry id advadce to all you bouth breathers out there. Do offedse.)

What does it all mean to my fitness goals?

It means I didn’t exercise…uhm…again.

I’m sure there are plenty of you die hard workout types out there in blogoland that will hop on to your treadmills even if you’ve just lost a limb. You strap on a tourniquet with your teeth and push through the pain.

I’m not one of those. When my head feels like it’s going to explode and my ears are ringing and nothing tastes right because it feels like there are two corks in my nostrils, I am just not doing it. The panting, the elevated heart rate, the sweating. Just getting out of bed in the morning is taking some concentrated effort.

What I need right now, isn’t a pep talk. It’s antibiotics.

What I need right now is a bubble I can put around my kids when they go to school, so they can stop bringing their diseases home to me.

What I need right now is a little sympathy.

Or not. Either way I still feel like crap.

Try me again next week.
