Its back…and its worse than ever before!!

Sounds like a tag line to a B movie but alas no I am making reference to this damn cold…which I think I can offically refer to as FLU! For AGES and I mean AGES I’ve been suffering different symptoms at different times, runny nose, cough, achey muscles etc. This weekend I started having hot flushes and feeling gradually worse I battled on, still going to work till today when I got out of bed and knew I wasn’t going anywhere, my head felt ready to explode and everytime I cough I felt like I may dispel a lung, So I called in sick and contacted the parents to have Jordan for a couple of hours so that I could go back to bed and feel generally sorry for myself!!

Mom came over early and took the rat back to hers and I went and covered myself in Vicks rub and dosed up on cough mixture that came with the warning….”May cause drowsiness….”, It should have come with the health warning….(to plagiarize a line from Denis Leary)… “Don’t make any fucking plans!!!!”.

It knocked me out admittedly I did take a little more than the prescibed dosage but now 6 hours later I am awake feeling not quite so bad as I did earlier but with the realisation that, that cough mixture may well have been industrial strength paint stripper as I have no sense of taste left! I am now praying that this is just another symptom of the worlds longest cold and not a side effect from taking TOO much medicine all in one go!!

Fingers crossed for me … I’m going back to bed!

I’ve done it again!! Its been a week since I last blogged and now I dont know where to start! I do realise the begining would be the logical place but I’m not sure WHERE the begining is?? I cant even remember most of what happened over the last week!!

I have nothing to say so I will just leave you with this question that I was pondering over the weekend…

Can people with one leg jump?? Because obviously when a two legged person jumps on one leg its called “hopping” so what do one legged people do??

….What a weekend of MAD MAD MADNESS and now eveyone has gone home.

Had the always so delightful James over and Al came and visited too. Watched LOTS of films and played games and wound Jordan up fully, Lounged around and chatted LOTS Much fun was had food was eaten and not a lot of sleeping took place

Today I took lil’ J to see Aladdin at the Grand Theatre with the Childrens Deaf Society, I can honestly say I have never been to see a funnier pantomime! My sides hurt I have laughed so much! It didn’t help I suppose that after watching Team America last night that one of the lead parts looked like a puppet and I collapsed into my seat in giggles as all Icould picture him saying was “aww durrka durrka!!”…Ialways forget how much I enjoy the theatre, I always say I’ll go more then forget as no one ever wants to go with me, and then I do get to go again and rememer all over again how good it is and regret not going more…

…note to self, MAKE AN EFFORT TO GO TO THE THEATRE MORE THIS YEAR!!

Oh well thats me done I need to get off here, tidy up and eat I’m starving!!
