this is the first time in all our years of being together that we're both sick at the same time.

gordon started feeling sick thursday (the day we left for our backpacking trip) and has been in full blown sick mode ever since. i started to feel sick sunday and have been coughing, sneezy, throat on fire, blowing my nose like a mad woman sick ever since. two sick people in one house is not a good thing. okay, i'll be honest. me being sick is not a good thing. gordon never complains about feeling like garbage. he continues with his day like he's just fine (example A: the backpacking trip). i am the complete opposite. you know when i'm sick. i'm not pleasant to be around. i go about my day moaning and looking like how i feel. it's not my best quality, i know. but i did make soup for both of us. gordon cleaned up afterwards because i was too sick for that. actually, i don't have to be sick for gordon to clean up after dinner. he's amazing like that.


moral of this rant...gordon is a silent sufferer. i am not. the end.
