Last week's cold seems to be coming back for another round. If I'm not feeling better once I've got some food, fluids, and caffeine in me, I might call my doctor.

The woman next to me on the bus this a.m. was coughing up a storm. I did my best not to breathe her air.

didn't twist or break anything or pull my poor dog down with me but I have big bruises on my ass and ankle.

Lisa, my ass bruise twin! My ankle escaped unscathed and is now comforting your ankle.

Uno the beagle is adorable. He was on one of the morning shows today. What a fabulous personality.

sara, ugh. Your job needs to stop stressing you out.

I'm watching the Roger Clemens/Brian McNamee testimony regarding the steriod scandal. They both skeeve me. Clemens is not telling the whole truth, and not doing a very good job of hiding it.

edit: Ouch, Vortex! Not the ass!

Oh lisah! I'm so sorry! That sounds very painful.

oh yes. My entire body weight on my left butt cheek. Luckily, the most padded part of me :)

It needs to be lunchtime so I can go get a giant mess of Thai food.

That's what she said!

(In my pants! Sounds like my dates!)

so is it time to play What Country Does Your Ass-Bruise Resemble?

I had one that looked like australia for about 4 months from a tumble down my stairs. Why I ask.

I still am amused by the fact that my dhow-bruise resembled a Lady of Guadalupe Mary.

My bruise hadn't formed up by the time I left home this morning and we don't have a full length mirror in the bathroom here. And it's just far enough around the back that I can't get a good look at it.

Huh I just looked at my ankle and there isn't a big bruise there. Maybe that arnica stuff IS magic. It does still hurt though.
