This Entry Brought To You By: Sudafed
From Lani, sniffling and hacking and sneezing, oh my...
Before I get into my "I've got a cold, wah me," whine, I want to say thanks to Alesia and Whitney for chiming in on Exes week! And for those of you wondering where Michelle is, she's got some computer issues in Rotterdam which will hopefully be resolved soon because we all miss her!
Well, today's blog is probably going to be short. For one, I spent last weekend in the hospital with Sweetness, who is fine now, but at the hospital, I picked up a nasty little bug which is still at this moment very soundly kicking my ass. I also have an essay to revise, a book to write, two kids to raise and... I know there's something else. I know it, I know it. I just can't remember it.
See? My brain? Is dead.
Trying to blog while brain dead is not recommended by the Surgeon General, but I'm doing it anyway. It'll be lame, trite, short, awkward, and probably not at all funny, but I owe it to you people to blog, and damnit, I'm blogging.
Cover me, I'm going in...
As I stare down the barrelhead of Thanksgiving, for which this year I am to cook, which means quite possibly another trip to the hospital, I thought I would talk briefly about all the things for which I am grateful.
1. Loyal readers who will trudge through awkwardly-phrased sentences like the one above until they actually understand it. You know who you are. And I love you.
2. Sudafed. I am heartily grateful for Sudafed.
3. Whoever invented digital video recorders. I have about 12 movies just waiting for me to watch. I love that.
4. Joss Whedon. Me heart Joss Whedon big time.
5. My husband and my children, who are all well and home now.
6. My fellow Literary Chicks, who get me through when life gets crazy.
Okay. Now I'm off to run a few errands (my own fault, what kind of idiot lives in Central New York and waits until the first snow to discover that her kids have outgrown their winter boots?) and then it's back to bed for the rest of the day where I will rest, pop Sudafed, and allow awkwardly-phrased sentences to run through my head without worrying that no one will understand them.
Now that I read this blog, I realize that some days... eh, it's probably better not to blog. But my kid is healthy and my Sudafed cabinet is stocked so... chances are, I'll come up with something better on Wednesday, God willing and the creek don't rise...
