Avoiding Children Like The Plague

One of the schools with a confirmed case of the flu is basically up the street from us.  Well, up the street a ways, but now that I think about it we were within half a mile of it on our walk on Sunday.

So.

It's one of the better excuses I've found for avoiding snot-nosed little squirts.  (Not that I'm around them anyway, these days.)

Of course, my own darling children are coming to visit--in fact, Boy arrives this week!--and I shall not be avoiding them.  Unless they start coughing or barfing.

In other news:  work progresses, taking up most of my waking hours and then some.  I went for a ride this weekend, though, and wound up with a mild case of heat stroke which, of course, means only one thing:  I need a new, lightweight motorcycle jacket.  TFL said so!  I could be practical and go for a water-repellent jacket with pads.  Or I could look around for a thin, pretty little leather jacket that I could wear all the time.

Any excuse is a good excuse for a new jacket! Especially if its a leather one. :)
