I have to be honest with you all, party people. My birthday is coming up in 11 days and I don’t really know what I’d like. Gene keeps asking but I don’t have anything to tell him. I’d like a surprise from him but I can’t think what. I lose, break or don’t wear jewelry….

Betty the shoe maker
Sooo, we came home tonight and I walked into the backyard to hang with the dogs. The yard guy had come over to mow and he usually stacks up all the dog toys on the porch so he won’t run them over w/ the lawnmower. Hmmm, one of those toys looks familiar, I thought to…
Holy Shit!
Watching the Oscars. (Spoiler Alert)… March of the Penguins won documentary (I think) and the winners brought huge stuffed penguins with them to the stage!!! That was so badass, even better than the Wallace & Gromit guys putting mini bow ties on their statues. Ack, and now they’re following it up w/ J. Lo??…
I Ain’t Got Nobody!
Gene’s in VA. Dogs are at the kennel. CAR is still in shop. So, internet, it’s just you, me and the Altima. I take back my earlier dismissal of the Altima. While I’m still relieved I didn’t buy one, it’s kind of fun to drive a car with a little pep. The Murano is too…
Wheee!!
News on the MIL: None at this time. She’s been home from the hospital since Monday. I’ve spoken to her and she sounds good, but tired. She actually had to get off the phone one of those times because she was too tired to talk. That’s a rarity for my MIL! Unrelated, but here’s what’s…
SS, DD
Still sick, different day. Wahhh.
Elaine, the 2006 Model: Now with extra bronchitis!
(But still whooping cough free!)
what do you mean?
what do you MEAN it’s possible to get a cold the week after Thanksgiving, try to take of yourself, drink an entire bottle of Robitussin (in doses, duh), take an entire ‘course’ of Luscious Prednisone (again, in doses, DUH) and then…. END UP WITH A COLD AGAIN?? This is too much. It just cannot be…
Medical Update and Retraction
Tussin either wore off or was ineffective. 🙁 Slept OK until around 8 then had to get up to run a ton of errands. Back to coughing. Coughcoughcough. Going to see doctor Monday (if his office is open) or Tuesday (if Monday’s a no-go). Gene’s all for dragging me to the ER but I’d like…
Medical Update, Saturday 4 AM
If you haven’t seen the standup comedy bit where Chris Rock extolls the virtues of Robitussin, you should do so. (I think you can get it on iTunes). Ever since I had the cough (which has been the better part of a month plus a few days), Gene has used Dr. Chris’s medical advice and…
