. . . I only wrote 3 blog posts yesterday.

. . . I spent 20 minutes staring at photos of Lady Gaga’s meat dress.

. . . there are several kinds of sausage in the house but I’m equally indifferent to all of them.

. . . it took me three tries to write the word “indifferent” correctly in the previous sentence.

. . . I haven’t been able to unpack the suitcase I came home with on Tuesday night.

. . . I read a colleague’s email twice but still have no idea what he is saying.

. . . I haven’t gone for my daily walk in 3 days.

. . . my husband has to make my tea because I’m too weak to do it.

. . . I didn’t talk to my sister on the phone.

. . . I forgot to eat.

. . . I started to find all the posts in my blogroll to be too complex for my understanding.

. . . all I want is for this stupid virus to leave me alone already!

      Thank you! The link works and as for how to embed a video in a comment, I haven’t figured that out either.

    I hope you feel better soon. I never get sick so I am horrified by what you are going through.

    Did not hear about a virus in Montreal(there was something a few months ago). Hope I don’t catch it.

    Get well.

      Please try not to catch it. It’s completely horrible. I’ve been incapacitated for days now.

        Well, it’s kind of hard to avoid a virus, unless you lock yourself in. Can’t really do that.

        Maybe the alcohol that cute girl gave me will be my downfall, but she looks like an angel and ran away….

        I like the idea of an angel giving me some beer. 🙂

          Alcohol kills germs, so you might be on the right track. 🙂

    Clarissa, I’m only fractionally as sick as you are, but I am feeling the empathy in my bones! I hope you kick this soon. In the meantime, it’s wonderful that your husband is taking such good care of you.

    Oh dear…do feel better soon! I’m glad you have a husband who makes you tea. 🙂 (Will he rub your feet too if you ask, or is this the kind of virus that makes your skin hurt?)

    I find Gaga’s fashion in general to be kind of mesmerizing too, so 20 minutes is not so bad.

    Hang in there!!! (You’re probably just full of toxins; I know a couple of ladies with a business on the South Side of Chicago who sell deodorant and bath salts and such, maybe you should give them a call? They are licensed in naturopathic medicine, so I’m sure they could heal you right up…;-)

    Peace!–

      Thank you! I think at this point he’d do about anything to make me feel better. It’s been a week already and it’s only getting worse. 😦

      Funny about the toxins. 🙂
