beyond sick
Apr. 5th, 2005 10:42 ambleh.
still sick as hell. and now I'm at work. putting in a half day before skivvin' off for some much needed sleep.
but I wanted to recap on the weekend!
Friday, i spent the entire day cleaning. I felt well enough to go to lunch with some coworkers. One was leaving the company and the other was his birthday. So ate at Crazy Buffet off of Winchester. Ate like a piglet. Then stopped by Valley Fair to get some white tea at Teavana. BIG MISTAKE. I walked away from that store with my bank account considerably lighter and a huge bag full of goodies. Came home and cleaned.
Saturday, the family and i cleaned some more. And mom made RIBS. yummy delicious ribs.
bebiteeny, her sis, my best friend, and her sisters stopped by and off we went to find joint presents for the dads. It was a birthday celebration for my dad,
bebiteeny's dad, and my best friend's dad...and a late bash for my mom (who's birthday was on st. paddy's day). got them all presents and headed back home to GRUB. Food was delicious. I ate like a little piglet, again. Got to spend time with the extended family and it was good.
Sunday, Tine, Ni, and I got up to do some major damage at the mall. After a few episodes of Fruits Basket, in which i got Ni hopelessly hooked, we went to get delicious baguettes and Viet sandwiches. Then to the mall we went. Oh the damage we did. Express, Armani Exchange, Aeropostale, Coach. These stores were our downfall. hehe..but we did good! Then it was back home for the girls had to go back to dreary Sacramento. And I got even sicker that night after going to 7pm mass. The rain didn't help very much on improving my health. But it still felt as if the heavens were crying and grieving with us as we attended mass. Remembrance of the Pope and what a huge social icon he is to the world. Not to mention the impact he is to Catholics around the world. I had a little paragraph that i wanted to write down in lj...but the flu kicked it out of my head.
Monday, i called in sick. woke up with a horrible sore throat and pounding head. Fever galore. slept intermittently all day. damn meds make me sleepy. finished my drabble by midnite. barely. felt better at night. only to wake up to being sick again today.
leaving at 2pm today. lucky me. i just want this flu to go away and leave me alone. maybe i can sleep or play some WoW.
Hug me. comment smut me. tell a joke.
I'll feel better if you do. ^_~

Date: 2005-04-05 09:15 pm (UTC)Q: How is a bull different from an orchestra?
A: In the bull, the horns are at the front and the asshole is at the back. :)
Q: How is a conductor like a condom?
A: Safer with one, but more fun without!
Q: Why couldn't the soprano go inside the house?
A: She couldn't find the key and didn't know when to come in. (Editorial: Ha ha ha ha ha! So true!)
Q: How many sopranos does it take to change a lightbulb?
A: 10. One to change it, the other nine to kick the chair out from under her.
And... that's probably enough. :) (You don't even want to dream of how many more there are where those came from!!!) :)
Go drink some tea and make yourself some chicken noodle soup, honey. :) Oh. Unless it's the barfy kind of flu. Then maybe pass on the soup. :)

Date: 2005-04-05 09:25 pm (UTC)I've been guzzling tea by the gallon and eating soup like crazy. i'm happy it's not the barfy kind of flu...more like "you look and feel like death warmed over" kind of flu with the added bonus of "lose your voice every day" bug.
oooh! another drabble! that cheers me up enormously. ^_^ i've been reading through the nuggets in

If you're sick, you're sick! You need rest.
