| We lost power last night |
[Dec. 17th, 2007|04:01 pm] |
Apparently power loss freaks Widget out. He was on the bed, shivering. We didn't get power back until I think 3 or 4 the next morning, which was fine with me because it went out at 10pm, and I wanted to sleep anyway. Kudos to me for buying a new, atomic clock synchronizing clock radio last month. It came back up, set itself, and my alarms went off on time.
I am recovering from the bad cold. The rattling in my lungs has diminished, and I broke fever last night. I still have a very stuffed head, I am dizzy from the stuffed head, I don't feel like eating, and my nose is seriously chapped, but I think I should be back to normal tomorrow or Wednesday at the latest. So far, takayla and CR did not seem to get sick.
In other news, I am one of many DC residents anxious to get a new package from Libertyville, Illinois. Shipping to us has been erratic. If you have no idea what I am talking about, it's a surprise. If you're waiting for one, too, or know what it is, don't spoil the surprise in the comments section. |

the truest godsend I have found for cold season is fruit-flavored Blistex... use a marker to put an X on it so no one else will use it, then apply it all over your nose and directly under it after you blow your nose. it'll heal the chapping and keep you from looking like Rudolph. Just throw it out once you're done being sick.
It occurs to me that if you want to keep something a surprise, you shouldn't tag the entry
*falls over laughing*
self-0wned.
classic.
I was aware of this subtlety when I posted it.
Doh! And re-p0wnage is served!
hehhehheh
And here I wasn't trying to "pwn" anyone. Just doing my civic duty and pointing out a breach in the veil of secrecy
