Pneumonia – Not A Girl’s Best Friend

Published on March 27, 2008 in Art, For the Record and Medical. 5 Comments

Flower BasketPneumonia is not a girl’s best friend but sunflowers are. Too bad I didn’t get sunflowers instead of pneumonia. I can’t believe this either. So, tomorrow I go IP so they can pump me with their voodoo medicines and probe me with their crazy machines. Captain Crunch will be with his babysitter and the girls will be here with my roommate Barney Fife. God help them!

I figured something out. Pink makes me feel better, as do sunflowers. So I grabbed my pink blanket, put on my pink fluffy slippers, grabbed the pillow with the pink ruffled sham and plopped on the love seat. Happy camper I was. I’m about to make some tea and go right back to the love seat.

First let me introduce to you “Flower Basket”. This little picture here was done a few days ago. She’s just holding a basket with purple buds in it while standing in a field. She’s just come from picking wild flowers in her private paradise.

Later tatters, I shall talk to you all in just a few days.

Now I’m Dog Sick

Published on March 27, 2008 in For the Record and Humor. 2 Comments

I told the chick my sense of humor never really leaves. I could be on my death bed and still crack jokes. But was I joking as I made my list of “I’m dog sick demands”! Who knows. But I do have a list of demands. See, it’s really hard to deny a sick person what they ask for. I tried to tell ~E~ that while pregnant her chances of getting away with stuff are great. She should take advantage of being pregnant. I even sent her a list of things to pull and blame on the pregnancy. Now here I am, not pregnant but sick…and not for 9 months either. However, like pregnant people sick people are easy to feel sorry for and we get away with murder too. Soooo, I feel my situation should be milked for all it’s worth.

I compiled the list of demands before my oxygen level hit an all time low preventing me from putting two cells together to come up with a manipulative scheme. I like to plan ahead. I’m a thinker ya know? So, this is my list for this bought of sickness which has taken a turn in just a matter of hours. Soooooo, I’ll be going in tomorrow morning to get check out. I should be home in the evening sometime. When I return home I expect to see all of the following on my doorstep. If you must charter a plane to get these items here on time then so be it. But everything should be on my doorstep no later than Friday at noon Eastern Standard Time. Consider yourself notified.

  • Rum Raisin Häagen Dazs ice cream (Please let Beauty wrap this. She always goes crazy with the tape and pretty much water proofs everything she sends. She’ll do great with sending the ice cream via the mail.)
  • Lavender and Vanilla fabric softener for my warmed blankets and fluffed pillows.
  • Homemade chicken soup. Don’t come to me with Campbell’s! I’m dyin’ here, I want the real thing. (You hear that Julie The Garden Lady? The real thing, an Amish version would be preferable.)
  • Ice pack with a sunflower decal
  • One French maid in full costume fully certified as a masseuse - You know who you are, see ya when you get here sweetie :-)

Really though, it takes more than bronchitis or whatever this has developed into to take my sense of humor away. I really would like to have the French maid though. That would be so awesome!!!

ta ta for now,
Austin (livin’, laughin’ but not lovin’)
