Sick

Fever broke a few days ago, thank goodness. But evil chest congestion/cough has spread to nose and sinus. Stupid cooties. I miss my bed. I know I'm with friends for the first time since Christmas, but it would be nice if I could be a little less miserable about the whole thing.

( Colonel Brandon has turned into a holy terror. )

Taking a puppy (at least one as spoiled as CB) on a trip is like taking a new baby. I packed more things for the dog than for me.

People keep asking me to make decisions. I don't want to make decisions, damn it. I want to say "Hey, what are we doing?" and not have to be the one to call around and make it happen. I'm tired and sick and slightly stressed (odd, I know) and I just want to rest. Sleeping in two hour blocks and then getting up to walk the dog, and then trying to fall asleep again just isn't cutting it.

On a completely unrelated note: CSI last week. Grissom. Sara. He does care. That's all I'm saying.

Lemony Snicket

My sister has the first six of the Lemony Snicket books. Having had no real interest in the books before, but needing something to do whilst my hair was being dyed its current shade of... whatever this is called (I'll tell you what it isn't. It isn't red, that's for damn sure. I said Red with Blonde highlights and I think she heard "Let's go blonde blonde blonde with some reddish bits."), so I asked to borrow the first book.

( Possible Spoiler )

Colonel Brandon is still insane. He did play in the snow (which came up to his sides) for a few minutes.

Staying with Jane't and her Spawn of Satan has taken to hiding from us. I think Fizzgig finally met an animal that intimidates her. Of course, I haven't seen the cat since I came back from lunch, so lord knows where she's at. I hope she's still in the house somewhere.

I have to finish (read: start) my 200 word drabble for hp_valentine since it's due tomorrow.

Did get to talk to cptn_oblivious today. He called me twice in a row so we actually got to talk for nearly twenty minutes. He wanted money and I felt bad that I had none to give him. We're switching over checking accounts and since he's In Country if he uses our current account the charge won't go through for months (seven or eight, really) and I need to be able to close the account at some point without worrying about what outstanding charges are still out there. And the first direct deposit for the new account hasn't gone through yet. Luckily he didn't need what he wanted to buy, he swears he can live without it. Or borrow the sixteen dollars from someone else until next week when his paycheck goes through. I feel bad, but I gave him the last of my Christmas cash - $50 - the day he left to hold him until the 15th and he's already run through that, apparently. I'm not sure what he keeps buying. I had to explain that I paid all the bills and I have nothing left. I'm living off a hundred dollars until pay day and that includes meals (which he gets for free), gas and birthday presents for Jane't and grandpoohbah.
