The headline’s blunt, and I’m going to be equally blunt here.

I’m still battling against this flu/viral illness some 10 days after I had to pull the chute on the blog.

I’m very pissed off because I am still ill and feel absolutely terrible, with the usual fever/chills, body aches and pains and extreme fatigue.

It appears that this is going to take at least 10-14 days to clear up; I was very enthused when I was able to cover the Wings-Habs game on Twitter, but I then needed to take all of Sunday off to recover energy-wise, so I’m making only incremental progress.

As soon as I am able to sit up and work on the blog without requiring massive amounts of recovery time, I’m back, even if it’s at 50%.

I want to do this damn job and I want to do it well for you, so I am incredibly frustrated with the persistence of illness at this time.
