A Conversation with My Immune System
May. 8th, 2017 05:36 pmMe talking to my immune system:
You've seen this virus before. Hundreds of times.
IS: But it looks different.
Me: It's a mutation, but I assure you, it's the same type of virus we had two weeks ago.
IS: I don't know. Maybe we'll watch and see what it does.
Me: Just boot it out now so I don't have to lose my voice, lay around miserable for a week, and buy stock in a tissue company.
IS: No, I think we'll see what it does first.
Me: *cough, sniffle*
IS: Oh what do you know. It is a cold virus! Ok, initiate Protocol Alpha.
Me: Oh ffs. *gets feverish and prays for soup*
