where's the good air?

whooping cough. apparently its infecting some austin peeps. isn't that like a old timey illness? 'oh u got da whoopin cough huh? drink some sorghum molassses and chew on this root and you'll feel better huh' i have kentucky hillbilly roots - that's where i was born and my dad was raised. my relatives lived in hollers and the women smoked pipes they kept in their dress pockets. well i digress. everywhere i go people are coughing and talking about the 'air'. ? i have had a bad cough and throat irritation for over a week now and thought i was kicking it. but last nite i was up at 4am and thought my throat was gonna shut down on me. sheesh. then my little dog molee barfs twice on the bed. DAMN. we were a mess. this just sucks. i'm not sick like bed ridden. but my throat feels like it has chemcial burn or something. who's burning shit in mexico now?? i hope all you out there are feeling ok and healthy as a horse. do u want to know what whooping cough sounds like? this is so icky. i dont think i have this. poor man.
