Here is an amazing, but true, fact that will make you smile.  I got it from http://www.topfive.com/arcs/t5050302.shtml  “In the weightlessness of space a frozen pea will explode if it comes in contact with Pepsi.”

Who tested that?  I can imagine a wayward astronaut, floating aimlessly in space with a frozen pea and a 20 oz. bottle of Pepsi.

What does this have to do with my day?  Last night, I felt as if the room was 100 degrees, but I couldn’t stop shivering.  I slept on the couch, quite restlessly, and got a little more than four hours of sleep.  My wife all but begged me to take the day off, but I can’t.  I have too much work to do to stay home.

So, I went to work today, my brain feeling like a frozen pea that came in contact with Pepsi in the weightlessness of space.  Those of you who know me are aware that I don’t get sick often.  But my wife will tell you that when I do get sick, it’s never a little bit or a mild illness.  It’s usually a hard-hitting, head-splitting bug that lasts only a few days but makes its presence known with great force.

I plan on taking tomorrow off, for sure, to rest and possibly pay Health Plus a visit.

Wish me luck.
