Spike's Bitches 28: For the Safety of Puppies...and Christmas!
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I start wondering how to Photoshop a new sign saying "Smile! You're on Russell TV!"
I'll email you one this evening.
I might also email you an .avi of nothing but Russell Crowe in an unending loop to patch into their broadcast, as long as you can find a way to pin it on someone else.
breath-ma to vw. The one time I had asthma (other than the joyful exercise-induced crap) was about the most miserable couple weeks of my life. I have nothing but sympathy for you.
Even though it's all in your head :-)
Now that we have TV (sort of) I've finally seen some ads for House, and could not figure who the actor was. I knew I recognized him, but with the different accent I just couldn't connect the dots!
In local news, the "Bird Flu Petting Zoo" near our house has been cleared out. This was a fenced-in pond in the local park that had about 20 ducks, 3 geese, and a couple chickens (who seemed bemused by the pond). We'd been joking about it since we got here, but yesterday they drained the pond and disappeared the birds.
Even though it's all in your head :-)
Hee!
FYI...
Coffee and Nebulizer make for one shaky vw.
Darned nebulizers. Chris was just on albuteral and pulmicort for a week. The first couple of days, he was shaky, jumpy, and I could feel his little heart raching.
What drugs are you breathing, vw?
I'm breathing DuoNeb, which is Combivent, I think. It's a mixture of albuterol and Ipratropium. It seems to be working better than the albuterol alone.
How is Chris doing?
...um, well, I must admit I've been a slacker this week. See, my gym has started admitting children.
Behold my concern, which looks remarkably like poorly muffled snickering. But it sounds like you've been doing well regardless. Go you!
I'll email you one this evening.
I have a sneaking suspicion that it won't quite match the format of the ads I'm fixing to replace. But thank you anyway.
He's doing much better thanks, but he's thin. He had a bad stomach virus at Christmas, a mild stomach virus two weeks ago, and three days after that let up, he got the upper respiratory virus. His poor little immune system needs a break.
I was hoping the pulmicort (which is a steroid) would help his appetite, but it didn't. As of Monday, he still wasn't eating cookies (!!!) when I'd give the kids snack or dessert. It does seem to be coming back slowly, now though.
He's pale too, even for him. He's been back at school since Tuesday, though. I was grateful for the snow storm, because I got to keep him home an extra day, before sending him back to the germ incubation factory. Feb. vacation is next week. I've pretty much told the kids they're not having any playdates 'til after that. I don't usually bother trying to avoid germs. With three kids, someone's bound to pick up something, somewhere, but we really need a break.
How many times a day do you have to nebulize?
I'm so glad he's doing better. Poor kid. You guys sure have had a rough year or so! I hope things start looking up soon!
How many times a day do you have to nebulize?
Up to four. Today I was supposed to go back to as needed, but it looks like the "as needed" will probably be four times. It's such fun!
"Yeah, she smokes. And she wonders why she doesn't have a job OR a man!"
Oh, har. Relatives can suck. Really, at that point your sister really needs to embrace the stereotype, smoking at all times, putting cigarettes out on the soles of her shoes, showing up for family breaskfasts with a six pack, and possibly consider getting a mullet. Or a mullet wig. (so's not to actually jeopardize the man or job having)
~ma for your day, vw.
Fay, you are fabulous. This is why the universe sent you baby!Giles to enjoy the hotness of. Also
These are the same kind of idiot 'Look At How Much Money I Have' people who come to a Carol Concert at their kids school and bring their Saiamese Cat with them, because said cat is an expensive show-off thing to own.
Ya know, having a cat whose heritage is part Siamese, I do wonder if it might sometimes be a case of "can't bloody pry the cat off my arm to leave". Which is to say, I have no idea why anyone else would haul their cats around to school concerts, but if I did, it would be simply because Harvey had decided he was not done being held when I went out the door. Although the truth is, Harvey is much clingier to Daniel than he is to me, so it would be really eccentric among other adjectives to boot.
