Evidently, it’s flu season here because nearly everyone I know has a nasty cold-like sickness that turns my friends into a red nosed Zombie looking mess with fits of coughing and sneezing. The 20 something degree temperature doesn’t help in the slightest and being stuck in rooms filled with these zombie friends of mine is very unnerving.
A while back I had the bright idea to get a free flu shot, which may be the only thing keeping this infection at bay. I fear that I may soon fall victim to this plague and turn into one of…THEM! To gain an understanding of the fear that I feel, Picture this. You walk into your classroom and begin to chat with one of your friends. Your friend turns around and greets you with a sickly Zombie like face and a series of coughs. You then realize that everyone else around you looks nearly the same and the sound of sneezing is filling the room. Then your professor finally walks in the door with one of those masks that you typically see doctors wearing and all you can do is sit nervously in your chair and count the seconds until you’re released from class.
Got a funny story to tell about when you or someone else you know was sick? Know of some ways to avoid the Zombie infective disease? Then feel free to leave a comment.
