Furby Wranglings

Have had the coughing cruddies all week, bad enough to stay home from work on Wednesday and sleep; Husband has it too, and I think the only reason Daughter seems to be healthy is that she pretty much stays in her room and only comes out for food (if then).

Four tons of gravel sounds like a lot, but it barely covers the drive in front of the garage. At least the worst of the ruts are filled in.

Last two night we've barely had the energy to run the errands after supper, before falling into bed. But did pick up BLU-Ray "Doctor Who's Christmas Carol" --might get around to watching it this weekend, along with the McGann TV movie (funny thing, I ran across the VHS tape we'd recorded it onto years back a month or so ago; wonder if it still plays?), both at Best Buy. Huh, been even too exhausted to watch the rest of the Tennant WHO specials, let alone dig out the few WHOs I own that feature the Brigadier and watch them....

Yes, that is a 'Team Jacob' bag tag dangling from my courier bag. No, I haven't read the books. No, I haven't seen the movies. No, I'm not planning to...

Because it looked nifty, and one of the 'charms' is a stylized howling wolf, and I like wolves.

Not that it's any of your business, missy. Just give me my prescription refill, thank you.....

Normally, I actually like chatting with the ladies in the pharmacy, but today I do not feel normal. I feel like roadkill....

Woke up this morning with watery eyes and gunk in my throat; seems I may have contracted Husband's cold (I was already coughing a bit).

ugh. I need coffee. and chocolate.

I Have a vague suspicion that I suffered a bout of mild sun/heatstroke last night, except it wasn't all that hot.... One minute I'm sitting on the bleachers with Husband, StepDaughter and Stepson-in-law watching the Step-Granddaughter play PeeWee League Softball, and the next I'm leaning against Husband all dizzy and nauseous and barely even able to turn my head without vomiting. Which I actually do once we're in the car and heading back home, and again into the kitchen sink after we've arrived.... I spend close to two hours flat on my back in bed with the AC fan on, trying not to move so I don't throw up again.... no headache or other odd pains, just that horrible dizziness and nausea and vomiting....

I don't think it was food poisoning. The only thing I ate at supper that Husband didn't was the Black Cherry yoghurt. I'm pretty much okay this morning.... a bit off-balance, maybe.

*shrugs* I dunno, I got nuthin'...
