It's Aliiiiive!

[liptonrm_backup]

Do not despair, I am still around;-). For some reason the cold, flue, thing that I had kept me down and out a whole lot more then I thought it would. For example, here is a portion of my Saturday thought processes:

Me: I want to go to a movie.

My Diseased-Wracked Body: But doesn't this couch look so much more comfortable?

Me: No, really, I kind of want to see Collateral, or maybe Spider-man 2 in IMAX.

My D-WB: But your head feels sooo heavy and your bed looks soooo comfortable.

Me: But it's so pretty outside, the sun is shining and the sky is clear and I want to do something!

My D-WB: Just sleep first. Mmmmm, bed.

Me: *snore*

So, yes, despite my valiant efforts I wasn't able to focus on much of anything this weekend, except the Olympics. I watched tennis, people, for hours on end, it's disturbing in retrospect;-).

Anyway, back on top today. I work and then I'm off to see the Sarah MacLachlan concert at the Palace tonight. Wheee!

Argh, I think we had the same groggy weekend!

*crosses fingers for a more alert, happy week for both of us*

*chants mantra of happyandalert, happyandalert*

Oy, what a weekend. But, at least we spent it in good company;-).

LoL! The disease wracked body sounds a lot like mine at the moment. *heads off for third day in a row of naps and intermittent web wandering*

I'd go to work, but I only got the "if you don't feel good, don't come in and share" lecture about a week and a half ago so...

Wow! We have matching illnesses, it's sweet in a gross sort of way;-).

I highly approve of your day spent napping and wandering the internet, it sounds like it'll be much more productive then anything you could've done at work anyway;-)

I'm glad your disease-racked body is doing better. Enjoy Sarah.

Oh thank you;-).

And Wheee! Sarah! *madly excited*

Hmm, I can relate! Sounds like this was quite a weekend for many people. :P Glad you're feeling better now!

Thank you! And yes, I think it was a really weird weekend for a whole lot of people. Maybe it was some weird internet infection/pandemic sort of thing. Or maybe it's some weird innoculation we all got all at once so that we can survive the upcoming super-flu. Or maybe I'm just thinking way too much;-).

Wheee! Healthy!

oh please...

that's the discussion that i have with my body every day. unfortunately, my body rarely wins and that is why i'm headed for certain burnout one of these days...

glad to hear you are feeling better!!

Aaaah, but the power of the Disease-Wracked Body was such that I had no hopes of winning. The arguments of the Sleep-Deprived Body are not usually as successful;-).

And burnout bad! Methinks you need a vacation, mental health day, something!

Re: oh please...

tell me about it...however, said vacation will have to wait until at the earliest summer 2006
