For the first time in a while, I got the flu. I wasn't even lucky enough to have one of the short lived strains either. I'm still recovering from it.
It's times like this where I am glad I have Netflix and Hulu Plus. We don't have cable TV, and if I had to be stuck watching daytime television I would probably never get better. Instead, I got to check out a few anime series that people keep telling me to watch, and I have also been able to watch Metalocalypse and Venture Bros. without having to get out of bed repeatedly to change DVDs.
And to people who say that "laughter is the best medicine", try watching funny stuff on TV after puking all day and night. Then come back to me and tell me if you still feel that way.
