A plague has descended upon this house. :(\ Why no, that is not me being melodramatic about everyone being really sick AND having to clean up kid vomit in the middle of the night. Why do you ask?
Earlier when I said I was sick, I was wrong. I was merely being inconvenienced with a splitting headache, burning chest, hacking cough and menstrual cramps on top of all that. Now, I am really sick. Fever, sweats, stabbing pain throughout my body. My legs and hips feel like the victim of a voodoo doll […]
How unfair is it that I have a chest cold that makes it impossible to breathe deeply AND menstrual cramps that require deep, relaxing breaths? I think I need a brownie. But that would just clog up my throat even more. Pooh! So unfair.\ ETA- And my Midol isn’t working at all. It is a […]
Ex 1) Max has requested that his bedtime routine start earlier, so he can quietly read in bed for longer before lights out.\ Ex 2) Apparently, some people are upset that Rosie O’Donnell said that radical Christians are bad, bad like radical Muslims are bad, and killing innocent people is bad too and are demanding […]
cough cough. Damn. cough cough. Yea, I have a cold. cough cough. Don’t tell Kevin, though. cough cough. But do watch Veronica Mars and Supernatural.
According to the x-ray they took today, I have a “shadowy abnormality” in my lungs that looks like pneumonia (or my lungs are haunted). So, it’s more steroids, antibiotics and rest. Rest includes bad movies, television, cup-o-noodle and split pea soup (my favorite “I’m sick” meal). My ribs are a mess, as is my right […]
Kevin is at the doctor’s right now. Hopefully he can get some better medicine. I wouldn’t be surprised if the doctor said he has pneumonia. I don’t know how pneumonia is different from bronchitis but I do know that Kevin has been really sick for a long time. Poor Kevin.\ Apparently, I am “very Jen.” […]
Because Tim did it, I’ve done it too… and I’ve been more places than Tim. I guess it’s not fair that we went to most of the same places in Europe when we were kids. I’m protesting Portugal though… we didn’t go there as kids. When did you go to Portugal, Tim, when? \ create […]
Five years ago, I really thought my world was going to change drastically. I had flashes of a WW2-style life, with money being scarce for everyone, goods being rationed, and the economy in general being unstable. I remember wondering if my husband could still pay the mortgage if he lost his job and had to […]
I still hate school. And of course Brian woke up very early all weekend, making me wake up early too. But today, when I had to get up to take care of Max, Brian slept in. Grrr. And I think I sent Max to school in the rain, without a coat. I am a bad, […]
