A little sick
Ladies and Gentleman, Boys and Girls I am sick. Not that killing babies for no reason sick, but that mucus, flem, snot-rocket sick. This is my second day home in bed wallowing in my own cast-off fluids (think tissues here people). Bear came over last night to make me soup. It is the only time that someone can come over and cook in my kitchen and I don't mind–when I'm so out of it I on the couch thinking…pretty colours.Bear got all concerned when I would go from red to pale to green-tint. I kept saying, yes I'm sick. That's what happens when I'm sick. It's just a cold or a flu or something. No worries.
I got ill Sunday night. I was watching Family Guy and I felt it. I didn't have any NyQuil on hand so I just went to bed. I should have ran to the store and gotten NyQuil instead of letting myself get this infected. Damn it.
At least I had a good weekend. Went to the director's going away dinner for a bit. Bought the man a drink. Then headed out to see DS Wes's art show.
Met up with MF Chris and went to Valdosta. Hung out at DS Wes's art show for a bit. He provided us with Tennent's mmmm Tennent's.
We ran into Ray & Lynn who we haven't seen since DS's birthday so we went to Lulu's for $0.50 martinis. That's right $0.50. We had a couple and talked of indie films, television, and literature.
Headed back over to the art show to see what DS was up to. Chris & I went for a late dinner at the Bistro. DS Wes adn Jesus met us there. We all had a couple of drinks and then decided to go play pool or darts or whatever.
Jesus drove, rockin out to 80s hair bands. We ended up at some bar full of the college kids. It was fantastic. It made all the guys feel old, but paying $8 a round…I'm willing to feel old.
I was on. I played typical Kansas pool. Fucking up 1 out of every 5 shots (which includes scratching on the 8 ball). It was great fun. I found a phone in the very disgusting bathroom which I wanted to keep as a souvenir, but Chris asked a little blond, "Do you know Amber C? Do you know Amber F? Do you know Amber Shevre? Oh well we found this phone." Fucker…that could have been hours of fun.
We headed home after that. I had MF Chris stop for beer on the way since I wasn't properly drunk yet. We finished a six pack on the way home, hitting signs with the empty bottles, missing our turn (adding 30 minutes to the drive), and hitting an owl (yes there was a moment of silence for that.
Saturday was spent on the porch with the puppies and coffee. It was quite relaxing.
Sunday in which I meant to mow the lawn was spent watching movies and sleeping (as it rained all day). So overall the lawn looks like crap, I'm sick, but I had fun.
