The Twelve Cartoons of Christmas ran smack-dab into the Flu before Christmas!

Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house
I was hacking and sneezing and coughing lungs out.
The children were nestled all snug in the beds,
Still I was awake and feeling half dead.

And ma in her kerchief and I in my cap,
Had just settled down for a Nyquil-induced nap.
When out of my head there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.

 Away to the mirror I flew like a flash,
Said “Ahhhh” with a tongue the color of ash,
And what in my thundering sinuses appeared,
But nasal fluids green rather than clear.

And as pressure built and pain grew,
I knew in a moment it must be the flu.

With apologies to Clement C. Moore and the squeamish among you.

This one’s for Tom Goering (aka NavyCS) at the Navy Blog for suggesting it and all the men and women in the Armed Forces who may be wondering if Santa will find them this year. Don’t worry, if you can land on a rooftop you can land anywhere.

Maybe the Republicans are right that government involvement in the private sector always turns out bad or perhaps it’s an insidious right-wing plot to break the elves union.
