Nothing to do with IF - I have the flu and want to complain

I am super sick. I haven't been this sick since college. I have missed a week of work already (I've never done that before) and the worst thing is I have a trip to New York next week (I live in California) that I'm very much looking forward to and which is also important for my career, that I'm worried I won't be able to go on unless I get better. I know there are worse things but geez.

Also I DID get the flu shot and I definitely have the flu because the cultures the doctors did came back positive! 

Thanks for listening to my random vent.

I feel better.

Awww thanks everyone. I feel better already.

 BootsOrHearts - thanks for the soup. That's our dog Winnie when she was a baby, she's just gotten cuter! One of these days when I get more tech savy I'll update the pictures.

Hope you feel better!  There's so much going around right now.  I've got something starting, too, and I hate it.

That stinks...I bet you picked up that dirty B strain that isn't covered by the vaccine. On a positive note, you should be immune to flu after this. =)

Get better soon!
