Well I’ve still got a fever, but I think I’m finally starting to get better. Phew!

Here’s some more sickness.

    When I’m sick, I usually chop up a few pieces of garlic into really small pieces, mix it into some orange juice and drink it all up. Raw garlic is supposedly good for you - and I dunno if it’s just the Placebo effect or not, but I usually DO start to feel better after taking my little potion. :)

    Get well soon!

    Yes it is. (Trivia: When bought from a corner store, rum is cheaper than bottled water in the Philippines.)

    HA~! Why does this remind me of (Captain) Jack Sparrow?

    Absolutely. Kill those germs! Kill them! No mercy!

    I have heard clear liquids work better…try vodka…it usually works for me.

    Missed a few days of Chickens, came to catch up today. Hope you’re recovering: lots of jokes here in the UK about swine flu, but I think many won’t translate. (”Called the NHS Helpline, but all I got was cracking…”) There’s a photoshop of Kermit dead - caught it from guess who.The most basic jokes are about the symptoms including wanting sex in the mud.
    Lying in bed drinking rum sounds like a good idea.

    “I’m not as think as you drunk I am”.

  8. Peter on May 20th, 2009 4:25 am

    That’s a way of getting sick too!

    Luckily you’re on the mend.

  9. Cristina on May 20th, 2009 4:58 am

    I think i need rum. I caught your bug too. *sniffle*

    Doug, I hope you are on the mend. Rum isn’t going to do it though - it’s got to be whiskey with lemon and honey! I thought every chicken knew that!

    NO NO NO Bad Chicken!!!

  12. ramonathepest on May 20th, 2009 5:25 am

    LOL!! Glad to hear you are on the road to recovery, and I’m sure the rum helped.

    an idea: “I must be feeling better…it’s going in one end and out the other.”

    another idea: It is the new H1N1 diet - don’t eat for a few days and lose ten pounds

  14. Chris on May 20th, 2009 5:53 am

    Apparently the chicken is so sick, it thinks it’s a pirate.

  15. Gretchen on May 20th, 2009 5:59 am

    HAHAHA! whatever doesn’t kill you, kills whatever is in you!!! Hope you start feeling better!

  16. Boston Al on May 20th, 2009 6:01 am

    LOL! Of course rum is a fluid. Glad to hear you’re getting better!

  17. Mike T on May 20th, 2009 6:02 am

    ha ha ha, those were drunk eyes ! I knew it, where did the trees go ? were they smiling with rage or all happy?, I guess we’ll never know.
    Hang in there Doug, you are almost there !!

  18. RACHEL on May 20th, 2009 6:43 am

    no, no, no. I told you yesterday tea and WHISKEY!

  19. Dinana on May 20th, 2009 6:48 am

    Doug, I’ve been so busy I haven’t even been reading my chickens! Sorry you’ve been sick. My daughter had a flu just before the “epidemic” started and she had a fever for a full 7 days. Rest well and know that even old chicken cartoons are a treat…don’t push yourself!

  20. Tomik on May 20th, 2009 7:27 am

    Nice one. ;)

    And I join to wish you to get better asap!

  21. Seraphine on May 20th, 2009 9:00 am

    sniffle-flavored rum
    is indeed a fluid.
    get well soon.

  22. Zork on May 20th, 2009 9:19 am

    I’m not usually the empathetic type, but at Day 3, I’m feeling pretty sorry for you Doug. I do hope you’ll pull through, I would really miss the Chickens.
    My wife said “Doesn’t rum dehydrate you?” to which I replied, well, then why do they put alcohol in Ny-Quil?
    If it improves your mood, that’s half the battle! Drink til you forget you’re sick!

  23. nihil on May 20th, 2009 10:14 am

    A nurse friend of mine always tells me when I’m sick, “Remember to drink plenty of fluids and don’t forget beer is a fluid.” ;)

  24. Sara Clauss on May 20th, 2009 10:24 am

    what do sick chickens eat? chicken noodle soup would just be wrong. You can’t go wrong with rum.

  25. Trog on May 20th, 2009 10:33 am

    OMG! It’s like we have the same life right now. My BF has been sick forEVER. LOL!!!!

  26. King Bob on May 20th, 2009 10:56 am

    go big or go home, everclear or nothing, Hic*

  27. MiMi on May 20th, 2009 1:57 pm

    Why is the rum always gone?

    Feel better soon, Doug!

  28. shanadian(eliannrad) on May 20th, 2009 5:50 pm

    Maybe it’s the hallucinations of Happy/Angry Trees, but your cartoons while sick are so constantly hilarious… If it weren’t for your discomfort, I’d demand that you remain ill.
    Feel better soon!

  29. shanadian(eliannrad) on May 20th, 2009 5:53 pm

    P.S. My chickens Falcor, Rex/Hawkins, Danielle, Marfa, Princess Peach, “Bucky Jr.,” “Valerie,” and Bucky say Hi and also wish you well!
    Even chickens want you to get better!
    And Falcor genuinely just blew you a kiss!

    I almost choked on my popcorn after reading this one. Great stuff! Thanks for sharing.
