This unusual warm weather has me looking to summer, only behind the handles of a Kleenex. I hate getting a cold, but I love the summer. Recently, I have started to reach out to potential summer staff members...It looks like I could set a record for hiring a staff so early - granted the University will only let me hire them so early - mainly so that background checks do not expire.
This is the fourth summer...If I was Nick Saban, it would be the culmination of a "process." I have put all the pieces together, my returning staff has matured, and barring crazy weather and/or outbreaks of plague and famine, this summer should be the best. Ever. For all camps in the history of the world. It's tough to build a dynasty. For some people. But I have done so. Eventually, the dynasty will end, but hopefully in several decades.
Our new rec hall will also make things even better here...to think that these thousans of kids have had all of this fun with out a recreation hall. We're cooking something good down here...
Nevertheless, the cold I have is puzzling me. A cold is an infection of the upper respiratory system. But I never saw anything get "in" it to 'fect my respiratory system. There is virtually no way to prevent getting a cold. Wash your hands to often and you eliminate germ fighting bacteria. Wash your hands to little and you are virtually hosting a winter "mixer" for germs. If you talk to people they will get yo usick. If you avoid people, poeple will think you asre sick...in the mind.
I enjoy using rather strange methods to deal with my cold. They would not be recommended by a doctor, so I will not discuss them, yet it involves lots of tissue and metholated salve.
But, if you get plenty of sleep and water you should be able to wash it out or sleep it off. I like to sleep and drink water, sometimes simultaneously.
This morning, I arose early not in pursuit of waterfowl but of sausage. I was server to the stars this mornig for the Karl Best Agri-Leadership Conference. Working in the kitchen is, well, work. But it's not terrible work. It can taste quite good. We don't serve a lot of alternative foods, unless diets request (and we are happy to oblige), but "soysage" just sounds good to me, but I have a propensity to drink soy milk and rice milk. The upside to these items include: taste, distant departure date - both of which are important to a bachelorman. I am still enjoyoing my soy egg nog.
Enjoy the day...
