I was sick for over a month w/ a combination of several back-to-back colds, the flu, and an infection in one of my soon-to-be-removed wisdom teeth (guess I should have gotten those taken care of a little sooner). Thanks to a daily campaign of echinacea and multivitamins, I got over my mysterious string of ailments, yet I continue to be plagued by a cough of death. I have some worries that it might be walking pneumonia, but I can't afford to go to the doctor and my insurance through my new job doesn't take effect until March first. I guess I just have to keep my fingers crossed and hope I don't die before then.

I'm counting down the days until Tori's new album, "The Beekeeper", comes out. When her Spring tour hits the Boston area, I plan on seeing as many shows as possible. Last time around I only made it to two shows due to absurd work hours at my last job, but now that I'm in a comfy nine-to-five I should be able to make it to a lot more. Anyone interested in going should let me know, as I don't have many friends who like Tori (two including my sister).

Tomorrow I have 874,921 things to do, then I'm going over my friend's place to watch the Pats / Colts playoff game. I hate you, Peyton Manning. Speaking of ridiculously good quarterbacks, did anyone see the Rams / Falcons game? Good God, Michael Vick is the most impressive athlete on the face of the earth (second to Lance Armstrong, maybe).
