I am in the merciless grip of a stomach bug so the first time that I can recall, I’m going to have to take a sick day. Try not to miss me too much.

Get well soon. I miss your articles.

Fluids, fluids, fluids and rest. Take care and thanks for your work.
Too late, I already miss you.
So sorry! Get well soon.
Oh! Please get well soon! And take what time you need, no matter how much we miss your posts…
Get well soon, Livius!
I hope it’s not the black plague. Not much hope if you get that bug.
Get well soon! Treat yourself well!
This is without precedent in all the years I’ve followed this blog. Please get well, we need you!
Vale, Livius! Be well. Imperative mode. As a command
Thank you for all you do for us through this blog. I’m not exaggerating that if we could bring to you what we could, you would be drowning in chicken soup.
Get well soon!
Get your rest. We will miss you.
I hope you feel better soon!
Rise, friend, rise again and take your rightful place near the altar, under the bridge, by the temple, over the hill, on the throne (!)….oh hell. Just keep fluid in (as above), and when you feel unchained from that porcelain (or what have you) throne, and the shakes and fevers wear off; get back to all of us! Yours, G
Get well soon!
You are not fooling me. You just had too much haggis
Wishing you a quick and full recovery.
Oh dear me, the dreaded tummy bugs. I hate them.
Take care, wrap up warm in front of the fire and watch T.V. There is bound to be some good programmes on to take your mind off it. Your brilliant posts will surely be missed.
Sorry to hear that you’re feeling ill and hope that you feel better very soon.
This was foretold. It is minor and will subside now. The guilt of calling in is what you are now feeling. Now what am I supposed to read about? I may be in a panic. I think I am sick now.
But Rick will miss you so much
Seriously, take care of yourself and get well soon!
So sorry you are under the weather, hope you recover very soon.
Take care, and get well soon.
Sorry to hear it. Get well soon!
And now that I’m commenting anyway I’ll take the opportunity to thank you for your wonderful work on this blog; I’ve been following it for a while now and I absolutely love it!
Please get well.
I noticed you put this under the category of
“Ex Cathedra” – “from the seat” or “from the chair”. Is this an indication of what is ailing you? It congers up visions of you enthroned upon a porcelain stool dispatching all in haste.
History is made today. Sadly. GWS.
So sorry to hear it. Get well soon.
Get well soon!
Take care and keep hydrated; we’ll be waiting for you to spring (all right, crawl) back onto our screens!
Sorry to hear the news! Why do I suspect we’ll be seeing more medical and porcelain posts in the future?
Get better!
Take care of yourself for as long as you need. We will miss you, but history will still be there when you feel better. i wou bring you tea and run to the drugstore for you if I could.
:whygod:
we all wish you well. I miss my morning read. Get well soon!
oh no what am I going to do, I need my morning fix!
Sorry to hear you are sick. Hope you get well soon!!
This is a good time to wish you well and to say that your blog is one of a handful I consult every day. So I WILL miss you today.
Take care, and be well soon. Fluids, rest, as this is not a trivial matter. We all miss you!
Enjoy the rest! See you back soon, I hope.
Oh I am sorry hope you are feeling better soon. I do miss you too.
Best wishes for a full and speedy recovery!
As the only one in my household who is NOT suffering the same, I understand completely
Take good care of yourself; your work is appreciated.
So sorry to hear you are unwell. I was ill in early December and the “stomach bug” this year seems to hang on. Take good care of yourself.
Things like that are nasty :-(
You have my sympathy!
Get well soon!
Don’t worry about us, we’ll manage – if barely ;-)
Take your time and get better soon…we’ll be here, waiting!
“By Jupiter, I’ll have the cook whipped” – Get well and try to avoid groups of practitioners:

Hope the flu ebbs sooner rather than later and that you are once-again “flush” with good health.
Your daily posts are a tonic for my morning grumpiness.
We most definitely miss you and our daily dose of history. I hope you feel better soon!
Take care of yourself with plenty of rest and hydration. However long it takes for you to feel better please use to rest. Will miss your writing in the meantime, but look forward to whatever you have in store for your return.
Hang in there!
Although I will miss your daily dose of enlightenment and entertainment, I can hardly begrudge you a sick day. Get well soon
I do hope you are feeling better tomorrow dear. I’ve found this blog to be most entertaining and informative. If you have a cat just grab it and make a pot of tea and hunker down to wait it out. I’m sending all the energy I can to you.

So sorry! Get well soon
Simply want to say your article is as surprising.
Hope you’re up and back at the computer keyboard very soon!
