Morning, all. Had a rough night. We have a friend in from NYC, which is fabulous, but the BF not only has a nasty cold, he got some sort of stomach flu which caused him to get violently ill several times last night. Poor guy. We has lots of fun dinner and meet friend plans for the next few days--hope the BF feels better soon so he can enjoy it. Anybody else have this recently? How long does it last?
Luckily our friend got a used iPod from a friend of ours his first evening here and is happy sitting at the computer all day sifting through BF's song files and making playlists.
See, Chicago is weird to me, as most of the time when it snows the snow melts in a week.
It's random. But yeah. All winter-long snow isn't common. Still, it's what I associate with winter for whatever reason.
ION, I am starving and the cafeteria doesn't start serving for another 35 minutes. The fact that there is a box of really good chocolates next to my desk makes this extremely problematic.
Yeah, but your mom is also smarter (than I) and better at rat-killing.
She trumps most people in both categories, and few people trump her at both.
Damn, Robin. I've not had that, so have no suggestions outside ginger tea.
Ironing flat sheets?
They're
really
crinkly. My mother never made me sleep on crinkly sheets. I'm not sure which magic powers made this happen.

Stomach flu tends to have a 12-48 hour life-span. They usually burn themselves out quickly (while being extremely unpleasant in the process). If it's lasting longer than that, I'd get it checked out. It wouldn't be food poisoning either, because that tends to have about the same lifespan.
Timelies all!
Feel better, WBB.
The third thing out of my BILs mouth (said to my niece) made me want to cluestick him, or import ita to do it properly. I think I may go take a nap.

Crinkly fresh out of the dryer (god, how do you spell that word?)?
If you wash them, dry them and remove them from the machine that dries immediately, then they shouldn't be overly wrinkly.
I have the day off, whee!
I have to take a GRE practice test though, booo.

The machine what dries. I want to call it that now.
Yeah, I totally failed to do that this time. And to compound it, they were totally twisted up with my jeans, to the extent of leaving red marks on them.
I fail.

The midnight dryer what dries at midnight?
My boss had the idea of parking the company car inside the building over the holidays. Turns out the car is about half a foot too long. But now the inside of the building smells of car exaust. I mention this more for the bizzare factor than anything.
