Caution: self-pity ahead.
sad face
Okay, headache/sometimes migraine that I’ve had since Monday, GO AWAY. And take this cold with you!
Things that are awesome when I’m sick:
the obligatory soup
the hippie tea
the oops-book-club-is-saturday-but-that's-okay-because-this-book-is-awesome book
the sympathetic boyfriend: "please stop taking my picture and ohmygod enough with your blog. also, i love you."
the unimpressed cat: "dude, seriously, enough with the pictures"
the ... 'nuff said
the generic drugs
I could stay home and rest. I was tempted when I realized I’ve only taken one sick day all year and have time built up. But I hate using my sick leave because A) work just piles up so what’s the point, and B) as soon as I do, I will come down with the alligatorflu (or whatever the most recent awkwardly-named animal-to-human doomsday illness is) and then not have enough time off. Also, I am a GIANT BABY when I get sick, so I may be over-reacting … a little.
Do you like to bank your time off, too? Or are you of the, eff-that-I-want-to-sleep variety? Because I’m kind of moving into that second category as the week wears on…
OMG we are sooooo much alike. I hope you’re feeling much better and that the soup, the book, the coconut ice cream (jealous b/c I’m not sure if I can find that here in Nova Scotia!!), the cutie boyfriend and the super awesome cat have brought you smiles and good health. All the best to you. And here’s hoping that you’re 100% by the weekend.
Cheers.
Random, but, fun fact: my ancestors on my paternal grandmother’s side are from Nova Scotia! They say that’s why we are so tough. 😉
What’s that saying? A picture is worth a thousand words. You have about 8 thousand on your blog. So sorry you’re not feeling well, and hope you get better very soon. You’d think the cat would at least be sympathetic. 🙂
Thanks! She may not have been impressed, but at least she was extra cuddly!
Too cool! I’m trying to find a link to send you a private email. Does your blog offer that option? 🙂
Oh yeah! I thought it was up there. I don’t know what happened! Anyway – it’s wordythirties@gmail.com. 🙂
