I'm home sick today, and while I am tempted to be catching up at home, I know resting is more important. So what could be do a load of laundry, run to the bathroom, is instead send an e-mail with the laptop on the couch, drift off for a few minutes, run to the bathroom, repeat.
I know that run to the bathroom part was probably too much information, sorry. If I had the sniffles I'd be at work, so you pretty much have to know that a stomach virus is about the only thing worth a sick day.
Which reminds me, anyone have any ideas about the button hitting combination I'd need to do in order to change my ear thermometer back to fahrenheit? I'm guessing one of my children knows the magical button pushing combination because when I took my temperature yesterday I took one look at it and though I was dead. Then I figured out that 38.7 was my temperature in Celsius and I'd need good old Google to tell me what my temperature was in numbers I understood. 101.6 if you're wondering.
I've missed morning TV. I'm out of the house by 7 on an average work day, so I'm not often home to see morning news and talk shows. Bonnie Hunt is very funny, but it sounds like her show is ending, which is sad for her. Not sad for me since I only see her on sick days and I hope to not have another of those anytime soon.
I'd forgotten how ridiculous the commercials for technical/trade schools are. You should become an MA because you can wear scrubs. Really?
Our dog is really warm and cuddly, just in case you were curious. He also weighs 80 pounds and he is trying his hardest to push me off the couch.
OJ and toast are like filet mignon and a baked potato to me right now, just so you know.
Mmmm, toast.
Um, life insurance commercials are pretty ridiculous as well.
Okay, I'm going to sign off and drift off to dream land again.
I hope you're having a great day!

Hope you feel better! : )
I just slept for three hours. No stomach bug here - just some nasty cold thing. I intended to go to work, but as soon as I slumped out of bed, I knew the effort would be futile.
You are right - daytime commercials are depressing and funny at the same time.
Hope you are on the mend today, but perhaps another day of rest would do you better? Have you ever seen so many ads for attorneys?
Hope you feel better! The only thing worse than sick kids is being sick yourself.
Get Well Soon! (And Happy Early Bday to jason!)
I really hope you are feeling better, but this post made me giggle. I love sick-can't really think straight-posts.
