>Not feeling good

>Woke up this morning and I thought things were ok. When I got to work however, my throat was sore. And I couldn’t get warm. I had on a sweater and my fleece cape and I was still freezing. I started drinking tea and hot water and then I was so warm I couldn’t stay awake. I tried to pull it together. By lunch my head was aching, as was my neck and shoulders.

I sent Em a text asking if someone could pick me up early then left work. I got a Chai Latte so I could have something warm and with milk in it, since I didn’t eat lunch and I didn’t want to throw up on the train. I slept almost all the way home. Then when I got home I went right to bed. I got up around 7:00 pm I felt better, but by then I was feeling so cozy I didn’t want to get out of bed! I did however, had some dinner and visited with the kids. Tried to order Stitches new phone but the payment hasn’t made it there yet. Then I have to wait 24 hours before I can order his phone.

I did manage to order Tigger some songs. Including Pinball Wizard.

>Slow mo

>This computer seems to be moving in slow motion, kind of like how I feel. I have another follower, it makes me happy whenever I see that number go up.

Today was pretty much a do nothing day. Slept in, woke up with a bunch of little aches. So the early afternoon was spent watching Phineas and Ferb with Tigger. Fun times. I think I lost a few brain cells! Then I went to the store to find some cinnamon tea or some flavors for coffee for my oatmeal. Then I got dinner at Wing Sing. I should have drank some more water than I did. My weight will be up tomorrow.

>Sooo tired.

I was going to write about my day, Tigger texting me to get out of bed, asking me to take him to the Verizon store, getting a new phone, taking him and Gwen shopping, getting my nails done, texting Em while she was in Manhattan with D, and other stuff, but I started to read my Shelfari discussion posts and now, I am just too tired.

Good-night.

>Missed the date

>Oh well, I don’t remember what I was going to say anyway. I had a headache when I got home. So I took some Tylenol® and laid down. I didn’t really expect it to do anything since the headache felt like a migraine starting. I was surprised, the Tylenol® and laying down in a darkened room while listening to the washer thump around actually made the headache go away.

Bought new dishes for Butterscotch, since he broke his other ones. These are stainless steel. Don’t think he will be able to break them. Right now I am trying to scrape the label off them, can’t understand why they would put a label on the inside of the bowl where the food and water go.

Since I can’t remember what else I was going to say, I will say goodnight.

>Subject: BREAKING NEWS: Former Senate Republican Leader Bruno Indicted

Joseph Bruno, once one of the most powerful politicians in the state, was indicted Friday on federal corruption charges.

Federal prosecutors said from 1993 through 2006 Bruno sought to enrich himself from some seeking business with the state. In court papers, investigators highlighted more than $3 million in payments received from people and entities seeking state business.

Complete details from NBC New York.

New York Times.

>I got lost in Brooklyn. After leaving work early, I took the subway and went out the wrong exit. I found the Sands building and the building on Adams St, but had no idea where in relation to those two buildings the building I wanted was. After wandering around for a while I then got worried that I wouldn’t find my way back in time to catch my train. Well, I headed in the right direction, for a change and found a subway station. No. 2 train so I was set.

When I got to GCT I treated myself to a non-fat latte, an everything bagel with butter and a bottle of Armani Code. I was attracted to the bottle, it is more purple than blue in real life. But the smell is almost like a man’s cologne. I like it and am going to wear it tomorrow.

When I got home, I found out the Gwen was aware I was kidding. The girl who never gets jokes. Anyway, I am not mad at her because (a) it was not really her fault and (b) she is taking me to see Phantom! I have only wanted to see it since forever. Well, I need to sleep. I am getting a headache sitting here and looking at this computer screen instead of my eyelids. Speaking of headaches, Tigger has had a migraine for two (2) days. Poor thing.

>i love my crocs

>I used that opening so people who do not like them will know to just skip the post today. I was thinking about the subject having read an old post of Brit’ Gal and I am wearing my Cyprus crocs at work, which I am not loving cause the straps have worn a sore spot on the top of my foot.

Anyway, if you have been reading you know I got a pair of fleece lined crocs, or fuzzy inside crocs, last Saturday. I have been wearing them for slippers in the house.

Today the lazy worthless college student (usually referred to as Stitch but today he is LWCS) was taking me to the train station so he could use my car and didn’t go out to start it like I have asked him to many times, so I threw on my coat and ran out in the single digit temps and snow to start it. I was wearing the crocs and my feet did not get cold.

Now this afternoon I have to go to Brooklyn because the Clueless College Student (also know as Gwen but today, yeah you get the idea) doesn’t know that when I offer to do something for her that involves walking through Brooklyn in the freezing cold wearing a skirt, I don’t really mean it. But since she accepted instead of saying, “Oh no I don’t want you to freeze your knees off and catch pneumonia” now I have to do it.

>Ruined manicure

>All that time and money! And remember how pretty!

And I have had no time to get them fixed. Maybe next week.

Today was an average day. Just up early, to work, home, Em picked me up so Stitch could get ready for the meeting. Oh one thing I did do was link my book blog to twitter feed so when I post to that blog it shows up in Twitter. Take a look at the twitter feed to the right, you will see my post for Mailbox Monday.

>Inauguration Day

>Important day in history. I watched it at work, both bosses were watching it, people were coming by and soon the little conference room was filled. I don’t know why, but I kept thinking about movies. Looking at Obama’s little girls I started thinking about that movie, I dated the President’s Daughter. Then watching Itzhak Perlman and YoYo Ma play that little piece of music, first I thought about Music of the Heart, then I started thinking, Stitch could have wrote something better.

Anyway, it is late and I am tired. Too much online game playing. I should really go to bed now. Have to take out my contacts and wash my face.

Hopefully I will have a better post tomorrow. And hopefully I won’t break another nail tomorrow!

>Manic Monday #151

>I found this on JonJon’s …a Dedication of Love… a very lovely blog you should check out. This is a meme and for it check out Manic Monday.

What do you do to make yourself feel better when you are sick?

Depends on what I have, but I usually have a cup of tea, sometimes with honey and lemon, then take a nap.

What is the most amazing weather you’ve ever seen?

One winter here, in New York, we had almost no snow, until April 1. Then we got pounded, people lost power for up to two weeks.

Do you listen to music or talk radio in the car?

Music, I hate talk radio.
