Letters from the Sickbed

Ick. I've been felled by some nasty virus and can't even wrap my mind around blogging. Unfortunately have nothing amusing or interesting to share with anybody other than my germs.

Will post when I am feeling human again and can string together a coherent thought.

Thanks for stopping in.

EM, get well soon. And, since I am Chinese, I am obliged to channel my parents and tell you to:
- not eat anything fried.
- drink soup, eat congee.
- wear 6 sweaters and 2 pairs of socks, even if it is hot outside.
- I can even call you 15 times a day while you are trying to sleep, to tell you to sleep.
:)

Sorry to hear your not feeling well. I hope that changes soon. I can't offer any special remedies from my own heritage, but I did have sex with someone, who had sex with someone that was related to someone else, that slept with someone that was Indian. So I'd have to agree with Epi.

Epi: Thanks for the advice and the get well wishes. I had to laugh because I remember my parents once calling me every hour when I was sick and just wanting to sleep. Each time I got to the phone, my mom would tell me that I needed to get rest. Must be some Asian thing ...

Greg: You didn't divulge if the certain someone you had sex with was male or female. Enquiring minds want to know ...

A fine question. I'm pretty sure he was a she. All the girly parts seem to be in there perspective places.

Aw honey, sorry to read that you have been hit with this recent plague. I hope you are tip top soon and from my ancestors, fix yourself a hot toddy.

Sister: Homemade chicken soup is great, isn't it? It's funny, because my dad used to tease my mom and say she was a Jewish hen - as soon as you sneezed, she'd be making up a batch of chicken soup. Only difference is that instead of a matzoh ball, ours had a ginseng root in it.

Greg: You still sound somewhat confused and unsure.

Snooze: Thanks hon. I spent most of the week in bed ... which would have been okay if I hadn't been feeling so lousy. Instead of us going out for a drink last week, we could have just gotten our germy selves together and sipped hot toddies. BTW, not to be too demanding or anything but I miss your posts ...
