Raindrops on Roses
Ok, since I have a cold right now and feel like I’ve been run over by a garbage truck, thrown back into the road and hit by an RV filled with beer swilling rednecks… I want to talk about things that make me feel better.
Aside from pedicures, sex, a massage. TMI? I thought so. My bad. Onward and upward though…
I’m a super picky freak. I admit it. In the past I have actually demanded fresh water. (I’ll wait, I just reread that post and it is far better writing than anything I’ve given you in a long time, so feel free to read it.)
I love Kleenex with lotion. It is the ONLY Kleenex that I buy and I never buy a generic substitute. That is the only tissue that doesn’t turn my nose into a raw, two-holed mass on my face when I have a cold or allergies. I also love Comtrex and Zicam. But, only the Zicam in the pre-measured spoon thingies. I mix it into hot tea and almost can’t taste it!
I love causing other people great discomfort when I’m sick. It makes me feel better to know that if a member of the household is not catering to my every whim in a deeply committed desire to make me feel better that I can find ways to make them regret it and amuse myself at the same time. This includes forcing my husband to sit in the same position for two hours while I sleep propped up on him. He claims that I get very “clingy” when I’m sick. It’s partially true. But, if I’m sick I figure that whole “for better or worse, sickness and in health” thing should come into play and that if I’m uncomfortable than he should be as well.
And, I know, I was hoping to provide a video of the cutest kitchen appliance on the planet (and even Beamer will think it’s cute, really, I swear!) but I got sick. There is always next week and I swear it’s worth it.
Oh, and I totally did have video for today but YouTube is acting like a giant ass and for whatever reason I can’t get the entire video to show up on Flickr. I’m thoroughly frustrated, tired, AND sick. So, instead of my usual determination, you have lazy excuses.
Good night and have a pleasant tomorrow.
