What I Have Learned From Being Sick

* If a doctor ever gives you a drug that is actually labeled as "will definitely, positively, no doubt about it cause drowsiness," look out.

*  Cats really are trying to colonize and will be thrilled when they have converted you to their lifestyle of regular napping

*  Sometimes your spouse coming home with a vaporizer for you really can be more romantic than roses

*  A state of grogginess is an invitation for the most annoying songs ever to get lodged in your head.  I've been singing the theme songs for "3....2....1...Contact!" and the Roadrunner cartoons on and off all week.

*  After the third week of illness, even an optimist might start to feel pretty sorry for herself

*  The man who invented Kleenex was a genius.

*  If a friend calls you when you're in a bit of a drugged stupor, you should probably explain the drugs up front, rather than letting them think you've been drinking at 9:00AM

*  I will be really, really, REALLY happy when this is finally all gone

Oh dear, you really sound poorly. I do hope you get better very quickly.
I do agree about the cats. Mine love it when someone is poorly enough to stay in bed and act as a hot water bottle for them. However, they find it all rather too inconvenient at meal times.......
Best wishes, Mandy:)

Omg....I can just imagine the phone call.....

Feel, better in body. Your spirit seems fine if I can observe the "normalacy" of your post.
