Ill

[bertine]

What is it about a fever that makes your skin look so good?

I went to my parents house to watch cable for awhile and Stephan King's The Stand was on. The mini-series is okay but I think I want to reread the book. I remember it being really good.

My mom made me malt-o-meal. This is the best comfort food ever. Too bad it didn't stay down. Sigh.

Today I missed two meetings I was looking forward to.

I did all my laundry and started dusting before I made myself relax and read a book (which I promptly fell asleep doing). I am no good at being ill.

I wish I had some oj and/or chocolate milk and/or buttered toast.

I hope you feel better soon.

I'd make you soup, but it would be cold by the time it got there

Blood flowing faster makes your skin redder/glowier.

Aw. Poor Bertine.

The Stand mini-series would have been better if there wasn't a floating head at the end.

I remember my Dad telling me to watch THE STAND when I was about thirteen or fourteen. I really really liked it. I think that the most harrowing part of it is the very beginning, when the camera pans through the test compound, and all those dead bodies are there, while DON'T FEAR THE REAPER plays. I do think that it kind of became a little preachy by the end. Plus, I always kind of rooted for Nadine, as I found her to be a very interesting character. Gah, I should read that book again.
