8. Eeew!! That is the absolute worst! Drink plenty of fluids (if you can
keep them down)! Hope y'all get better soon! I have some phenergan, but that does you no good!

2. That sucks you're down with disease
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNt1IdNEJ-c

Feel better....:hug:



Down with disease
Three weeks in my bed
Trying to stop these demons that keep dancing in my head

Down with disease
Up before the dawn
A thousand barefoot children outside dancing on my lawn, and I keep

Waiting for the time when I can finally say
That this has all been wonderful but now Im on my way
But when I think its time to leave it all behind
I try to find a way but theres nothing I can say to make it stop

Down with disease and the jungles in my mind
Theyre climbing up my waterfalls and swingin on my vines
So I try to hear the music but Im always losing time
cause theyre stepping on my rhythm and theyre stealin all my lines
Stealin all my lines and I keep

Waiting for the time when I can finally say
That this has all been wonderful but now Im on my way
But when I think its time to leave it all behind
I try to find a way but theres nothing I can say to make it stop

29. Yeah, I have the flu or something.
It sucks. The really crappy part is, this was my first week of classes, so I had to drag myself to all of them to avoid losing my slots, when I really should have stayed home in bed.

:hi:

34. Yeah, good classes.
I had a math class I wasn't really looking forward to, but it got rescheduled and the new time conflicts with my other classes, so I guess I'll do that over the summer.

How's school going for you?

42. Ugh. 8 am classes.
Did that once, wound up with a shitty grade in my best subject. Never. Again.

I have a bunch of comm studies and related classes mostly, plus my last required writing class, and guitar just because I want to take guitar.

43. oh, believe me
i never ever ever ever ever ever in my whole life wanted to take an 8am class, but it was the best schedule option.

I want to do something fun like guitar. that sounds like a great stress reliever class..."i have to go play some rock'n beats for homework" sounds good to me

I think we are good here. Neither of us are moving from our beds, barring rapid trips to the bathroom. In other news, I love having a laptop so I can DU when I am sick.

Thanks for the offer.

I will call you if we do need anything.
