Happy Feet Friday

Obviously, Dax can't stand to not be the focus of my immediate attention. Remember these babies? My toes! They are free! Wiggle little toes. Wiggle!

Internet, I am sick. I think it's the regular Monkey Plague - which I haven't had since September. (Which is a major miracle. I mean remember the winter before? I was sick from August until May - straight through!) But it could be the flu. Because you know how your skin hurts when you have the flu? Yeah. That. And the coughing so hard you throw up? I don't need to do crunches because my coughing is taking care of that for me. And I had to do some intermittent mascara application this morning so that I wouldn't immediately cough right after and get black crap all over my face.

But I'm going to work because I have to save my sick days for the lake. (I kid. Sort of.) But really, because it's just me and him and he's decided that if I'm not there, then we should just close the office because he doesn't want any "incompetents" in his office. And well - that's stupid. So, I'll go and when he's done for the day, I'll take off, too.

And while I'm there, I'll be dreaming of my cozy blanket and hot broth. And when I get home, that's how it's going to be.

No gym today.

Oy. Sick is tiresome. I hope that soup and naps occur early in your day.

and speaking of the center of attention, I'm trying to type this with our new puppy Molly burrowing into my lap. Increases the level of difficulty. The Russian judges won't score it any higher, though.

I'm right there with you, Kate. Feeling lousy. A mild case of the monkey plague, for sure. Only, I opted to stay home. I can work remotely and I'm pretty sure the guys at work don't want me snotting all over them. Be good to you and have a restful weekend.

Can you just sleep under your desk? I mean, he'll understand. Or better just snuggle up on a surgery table. So cozy.

Feel better. Water. Agua. h2o.

Those are awesome shoes! I've been meaning to do my first-toenail-painting-of-the-season ritual - seeing yours makes me want to do it right now!

Hope you feel better soon.

:-( Boo to the flu. I hope it doesn't stick around for too long. Take it easy!

I noticed how your "this little piggy stayed home" toe is bigger than your "this little piggy went to the market" toe.

Just so you know, that means that you are a genius. I was told that by the nurse after I delivered my daughter. My daughter is only four and is quite smart. So, it must be true.

I hope you feel better soon. It's been a crazy ass week. I've missed you and your little blog. I'll catch up this weekend.
