Random Thoughts When You Have a Cold

Even though I was graced with The Plague the first week of the new year, the germ Gods saw fit to bequeath me with a cold this week.

Yesterday I was at work, feeling fairly knocked out by my cold. Not to say that I was bad off enough to stay home, I was perfectly fine to work, but I had a bit of a sinus headache that was getting worse.

Anyways, I was sitting at work browsing the internet, when I saw a picture of a guy with a large ginger beard modeling a hat or a tee shirt or something. The first thought I had was something to the general effect of: I need to find a guy like that so that I can crawl into his beard and it will keep me warm. It was at this point that I thought it would be a capital idea to leave the office and go home. I did so with my boss's blessing.

Naturally I cannot for the life of me find the picture of the bearded fellow on the internet. Perhaps I imagined him and his magnificent beard. I have decided instead include a picture of Commander Riker from Star Trek the Next Generation.
