I could shine my pennies or clean my lava lamp...

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
1

I could spend all day in my underwear watching “Earnest Goes to Camp”

I could sit and count my hair
I could burp my Tupperware.
I’m not busy now anywaaaaaaaaay.

I’m callin’ in sick today!
(Weird Al)

Well, sick again. So, what should I do today? Right now I’m reading the boards (done), watching the Dot.com guy (he’s showering), and watching Court TV. I’m sick as a dog and whenever I start to read I fall asleep. Ack!

I may just order Pay-Per-View movies all day. I haven’t called in sick in so long (years) I don’t know what to do with myself!

Well, you could always come over and clean my house :slight_smile:

3

If its nice outside, go!
Go sit in the park, reading a good book, eating a pb&j sandwich.
Or watch the fun on CNN…

though I’m kindof wondering about ya wanting to watch Earnest movies in your underwear…I mean he’s kinda cute but…

4

Wo! What was that! I had no idea I was making a smilie! :slight_smile:

5

Okay, maybe I’m seriously out of touch, what is the Dot.com guy??

6

You can come wash my truck and weed my flower beds. :slight_smile:

7

I called in sick because I AM sick! If I could do all those things, I’d be at work now!

I think I’m going to try to read a little- every time I doze off my sore throat wakes me up, which sucks. The most I’ll probobly do is a little housecleaning. It does look nice out, though- maybe I’ll get a little fresh air.

cough! sniffle hack

Make papier-mâchéesque(I know that’s not really a word) Christams ornaments out of your used kleenex.

9

pick a drawer, or a box, or a closet and just start going through it and say with each item “Why am I saving this?”

Either you will end up with a clean drawer, or you will get sidetracked (like me) and not realize where the last 2 hours went.

10

Oooh, good idea xizor! I love doing that.

Zette, I was thinking you could make a nice, hot cup of tea with some honey and brandy. That should put you out for a while without being woke up by your throat.

Have fun!

You know, I’m at work, but I may just try out Demo’s idea here… that’ll help kill a morning :smiley:

12

Trust me. I didn’t believe it when told this, but tried it and knocked my bug right out.

Get you a double shot glass, fill with whatever kind of liquer, add a touch of butter, brown sugar, honey, white sugar, heat in microwave as hot as you can stand to drink it, then take a nap and I bet you’ll feel better when you wake up, if you wake up. :slight_smile: Just kidding. It gagged me to drink it, but it did work.

Then you can come wash my truck and week my flowerbeds. :wink:

13

I dunno about the rest of you, but the remainder of my day will be spent trying to figure out vanilla’s peanut butter and smiling jew sandwich…

14

I’m gonna guess that was either a peanut butter and kosher dill sandwich, or something delightfully obscene…

Pile on the blankets, every one in the house, and take a nap until you want to wake up. It is crucial that you sweat like a cheatin’ husband when the wife and the other woman run into each other at Braum’s, and sweat for a long time. It breaks the fever and you feel better quicker.

Or, go stand in a draft in your underwear, and feel sick longer! You need to take more time off from work, m’dear.

15

I’m sick too, and this is my day off! :frowning: I did miss skool yesterday, though.

16

Yeah… theres nothing better then a peanut butter and jewwie sandwich… :smiley:

17

I really have nothing to contribute to this thread but I gotta tell you, the “peanut butter and smiling jew sandwich” has had me laughing all evening!

(God I need a life!)

18

That reminds me, the bulb on my lava lamp burned out. I need to replace it.

19

Well, I ended up lounging around all day. I started to feel moderately better, so I went to the library and ran a few errands. Had more chicken soup and went back to bed.

On the upside, I discovered “Cepacol” throat drops. They have benzocaine in them (taste awful) and really numb your throat (and tongue) up good. It gets rid of the nagging throat ache for a while so I can sleep.

Here’s to a better tomorrow!
