- just because you have kicked the fever's arse once, doesn't mean it won't come back with it's friends, the sweats and the chills.
-if the cold meds come back up, they are Not Working.
-addendum to above: various multi-coloured jelly beans will return as an even shade of brown.
-When talking to youngest sister, try to remember not to pick up her phrasing. However 'the cough syrup bottle is bright orange and has a smiling kid's face on it that you just want to bitch slap off the little punk' does work as a decent reminder of what stuff to get.
-Talk to my folks more often, Dad used to work in the medical field, he knows good stuff.
-When feeling like a petulant child for going to bed at 7:30, which we haven't done since elementary school, three very good friends from the other coast call.
-downplaying just how well are doing on lj sometimes leads to strange encounters over the phone:
"Hi!"
"Croak! Croakcroakcroak croak croakcroak!"
"Icka!?! Is that you?!"
".... croak."
-We have good friends. ^______________^
-Apologies to
shade_scribbler and
yu_gi_oh_freak for missing the party, was really looking forward to it and seeing everyone. Hope we can re--schedule and get together later. ^__^
And that's pretty much it from me. Will continue to be primarily offline, must fix me before we fix our laptop.

Date: 2008-02-25 05:14 am (UTC)-but that's why I tend to downplay when I'm feeling bad, don't want other people to worry or draw them down. Better if everyone stays cheerful. ^_________^
Recommendations for a good cold medicine:
Date: 2008-02-25 05:12 am (UTC)--on the other hand, Zyrtec-D is also good, but is goddamn expensive.

Thank you for the information!
