SHAKING THE WOGS

"Did you shake the wogs?" Our very good old neighbor Flav asks me, while shaking both hands beside his face. At first I was like, "what the?" then common sense told me he was most probably asking me if I'm well now, having had the flu a few days back.

Yeah, I caught a nasty virus which started Sunday and last for 9 (yes, 9!) horrible days. During the last two days I was feeling so dizzy I couldn't stand for more than a few minutes but also couldn't stand lying down -- both positions make me giddy. Scary actually, because I don't know what to do to fight the giddiness. I just hate being sick and I hope I don't catch a similar one in the future, maybe I have to give those annual winter flu shots a go...
