Miserable and Sick Again
Category: body

I had off since Thursday technically but I worked about 15 hours from home that day. Despite the work being kind of fun, the next day I was totally sick with fevery, sore throat again. This time (e:Joe) has it too so at least I'm not alone.

This weekend we were supposed to go see Matt and Kim and (e:Joe)'s Alma Matter in Cleveland but alas that never happened;(

While I blame stress to some extent I also blame the fact that we were near our sick coworkers. Anyways I spent Friday, Saturday, Sunday in bed totally miserable. Not the kind of relaxing rest but the kind of miserable orange mucous hacking bullshit. My whole body hurts from coughing. I would kill for one warm, humid, outdoor allergy free day but we all know how this spring is working. From freezing to full on allergies.

For the first time ever I watched TV all day. I was never a TV guy. For years we didn't even have it but I felt too sick to even compute. It was a strange sickness where we didn't even have the energy to stand up and get water. My heart also started doing that jumpy thing again. I wonder if its related.

I have so many important meetings on Monday and Tuesday including ones people flew in for. I'd like to just not go or call in but calling sucks as I found our from a meeting where I was clearly not understood over the phone.

I wish everything wasn't on such crazy deadlines right now because I need some real rest. At the same time, I really enjoy non stop interesting work. Here is to getting well.

The Resurrected Bathroom Window
Category: bathroom

Well it took like 8 months but it was worth it. The guys from Thumbnail completely rebuilt the existing window so that it would be historically accurate. They rebuilt the frame and added some weather stripping, a chain, new double panned gas filled glass and much thicker bolts. It now opens and closes so easily and shuts real tight.

Easter Dinner
Category: food

We had another amazing dinner at my cousins inlaws house. The amount of meat and desserts was over the top. I am so tired now.

Yuck, I was so skinny when I was younger. I have a 17 y/o anorexic girl's dream arm in this pic.

Think I still might be that thin :) now adays do they call that Heroin shiek (spell check won't help me argh) but you know what I mean I'm sure you where healthy back then ....

My arms look worse than that now. :/ I can even do 1 real push up these days but nothing seems to help. I am doomed to be the human stick insect.

There's probably some thighgap going on under those jeans too.

You still looked cute even 30 lbs underweight.

Category: birthday

(e:czarkasm) looking fine at (e:mike)'s birthday in 1989. I think this might be the year with the Debbie Gibson tape.
