It's been bad this year for sure. Shit got me twice a couple months ago. Once for 2 days and I thought I came out of it unscathed, 4 days later I was basically bed ridden for 3 more days. FLU is a nasty thing. Apparently that flu shot (first one I've ever gotten) didn't do a damn thing! Our whole hockey team has been dropping like flies too. Seems every game someone is missing due to being sick. I miss warm climates, never got sick.
