bird flu from asia?

[joethelion]

yea - I keep going from being totally paranoid about this... then I stop for a second and realize, I have much bigger things on my plate right now and I really shouldn't waste the mental energy

but what I will say - is that I am generally a bit paranoid about getting sick. Not that I'm afraid of going to the hospital, etc (when I was little my dad (who's a doctor) would take me on rounds) - it's just more about the fact that I ALWAYS seem to get sick

plus it doesn't help that the ENTIRE art department at the University of Iowa now shares one big structure (it's a renovated "Menards" - a hardware,etc type store) ... and guess how many bathrooms there are?

ONE

and there's already been "a bad bug" that went through our printmaking department (which is what I do)
