    I've heard that expression so much recently. But anyway, how ofter do you get sick?

    I woke up with a sore throat this morning but it seems to be gone now. I usually get sick really, really badly at least once a year, in the middle of July. Otherwise, it's just a sore throat here and there or head ache. Although I think I've had the same head ache since the 8th grade it just retreats every now and then

    Once a year. Most of the time, it's not that bad, and I continue on my day as though nothing happened.

    ive been sick with a nasty cough for about two weeks now this usually doesn't happen because as soon as i feel anything coming i drink about 2 gallons of orange juice (it like a nuclear first strike)
    I like chocolate!! No matter what flavor you get, you can always taste the broken dreams!

    Not often, I think it's because of how much garlic goes into the food I eat. I did have the flu really bad early last year though, it was probably the worst virus I've ever caught.

    I usually just have the small stuff...sinus problems, stomach ache here and there...But to get full blown sick like i just got done being (Sore throat, larengitus, tonsels slightly swollen), it doesn't happen too often.

    I get sick very easily. It's been about a month or two since though, knock on wood. xD

    I really do not know. But I seem to have made it fine through last year with very few of them.

    the only illness i get are colds.. and as the name might suggest.. they are quite common.

    I dont even notice them anymore, until my nose starts dripping once a month or so for a day.

    for the rest.. ive been sick twice in 14 years

    I very very rarely get sick, and when I do get sick I normally get better very fast.
    Oh, did I mention I'm awesome?

    Nope, I don't get sick nearly enough.

    Cookie You find your own voice sexy? You're a freak.

    Usually right before an EoFF Meetup. It's as if my immune system knows of the horrors that will be facing me and desperately tries to get me to stay away. I predict that the next meetup will be held at my bedside as I lie in a coma.

    Once a year on average. I'm a very healthy individual. It's all the grotesque growth hormone I think.
