I’m very very sick. If I had to describe how sick I felt, I would use this photo. Infact, I WILL use this photo:
Feeling Sickly
This photo is exactly how I feel. Cheap red stained lips, lying on the floor with chili all over my face…and then glorified by having the whole world (aka the 2 people who read my blog…thanks S&L) see it. Needless to say, being sick sucks.
I have recently skipped to the other side of the pond from Toronto, Ontario to London, UK. In my Toronto days, if I had been sick I would have thrown on an episode of Bud Abbott and Lou Costello and laughed my way to familiar sense of security. That was my sick day routine.
Bud Abbott and Lou Costello
These two helped me through the worst of the worst. When I was sad or sick, they were always there to make me laugh. Well them and Blankiee, my first love and very best friend (ya so what if I have a blankiee and I’m 23? Do you really want to fight about it? Because I can and will turn you into puree for Katsou’s dinner)
Anyhoo, now that I am here in London and living in a decrepit closet that should be condemned (trust me, the only reason I don’t live in a cardboard box on the side of the road is because it rains all the time and I would rather have a Hairy Aubergine crawling on me as opposed to having everything soaking wet…) I am forced to choose between the 4 channels we get from a cord plugged into the back of our 10 year old tv with a Nokia charger hanging out of the cord to get reception. Yes my friends, I’m living the dream.
So what does all of this mean? It means I’m sick and I have no Bud and Lou….nothing to make me feel better. Ok, well I have Blankiee but its rendition of Who’s On First isn’t the best. Pray tell, what do you watch when you are sick and want to stay in bed all day? Who knows perhaps my Nokia Charger antenna will pick it up!
And yes, because I am sick I am cranky and that’s why I spent the better part of my post bitching…but in good news, tomorrow is my Mom’s birthday…perhaps a great day to start the Lucia files!
haha you are even funny when you are sick. I wish I could fly there and make it better, or at least we can be sick together. And girl please, what would I be watching other than friends! Maybe you can just reenact the episodes? haha or dream about them. Can you please send me your address? 🙂 miss you.
Like im doing nothing… Geeze… 4 ltr soups and then you still order a pizza. The hairy aubergine is my friend! leave him alone. So its my tv, my nokia charger we use for an antenna. Like it or not, its better than nothing. Think about it…
Working in the pub tonight made me miss you. So sick, but you still cleaned the room!! Nice one!
