Goood Friday Morning DU!
Hope everyone's morning is starting off right! Have some :donut: and wake up! What are everyone's plans for this weekend? Not getting too drunk or wild I hope! :D As for me, well, I had plans for tonight and tomorrow but now I'm not so sure I'll be able to go. Someone passed me their gross cold/possible flu (everything just aches). Weird thing is, I was fine until about 7:00 last night and it just hit me. GREAT.

ANYWAY! Have a WONDERFUL day and weekend and try to stay out of trouble! :hug:

11. Good
cuz without coffee that spanking....
well you know what spanking in the morning does to me.

We're driving out tomorrow to look at a house about 1 hour outside this city in a small town. It's 130 years old, "lovingly restored" and reasonably priced. It's also wonderfully positioned in relation to the jobs for which I confidently expect to apply for and get in a few weeks.

4. I have had to work to hard this week
More of the same this weekend.... It might be a little fun. Hopefully I will get some sleep. Hope you get over your bug soon. There have been about 5 flu like bugs that have passed through my family. I have had 2 and don't want another, i know how miserable you must be...

Have fun and get some sleep also! Sleep = good. :D

10. I am looking forward to it
Longish drive, but have a couple books on CD. Wonderful Wife cannot drive yet, so I have a case of cokes in the back seat.
See you when I get back:hug:

Are you still planning on heading up this way in the spring?

14. Try Red Bull!
It's the only thing that gets me through serving sometimes. Just don't drink a lot in one day or on an empty stomache. Ya better hurry back! I might miss ya!

And yes, I'm hoping to be up there in the spring. If other DUers would ever decide on a date for the Boston meetup, I'd know for sure. I'm going to do a 4 night/ 5 day thing. Found this CUTE little B&B also. I'm getting excited! Any way you'd make the trip to Boston?

9. What's good about it?
I just coughed up a lung and have to go to work anyway since I've already been out two days this week. My husband and I both have some crud....seems to be turning into bronchitis. My daughter just drove in from college last night for the weekend. She has the flu. Sigh....hope we don't get that too.

Plan for weekend = sleep, cough, sleep more. Exciting, huh? Oh well.

I'm at work now.......trying to look like I know what I'm doing. I think I'll just hang out at DU all day while I listen to Air America.

I have to work the weekend and that is always unpredictable where I work. I'm going to prepare and set-up my routine stuff so I can be ready for the unexpected.:scared:

36. G'day, Blondie!
:hi: Oh, no! You don't sound so good.

Are you getting plenty, uh, I mean, some rest, lots of fluids, and, of course...










No doughnut for you! :P You aren't feeling well.

37. Hey you.
Actually, I think it's gotten worse since I've been at work. :( Oh well. Drinking water, that's about it. Doesn't feel like I can keep anything else down.

How are you this morning?

43. Lost track of last night
Was gonna take a short power nap after I got back, then do a Target run for my mother (Why these routine tasks fall on me when I have a father and 2 brothers is another story. :nopity: ). Fell asleep about 6, woke up again at nearly 8:30! Oh, no! Too late to run out, and prepare my things for the morning, practice on my keyboard, watch TV, and the other tasks I had planned for the evening. I'll have to do the Target run tonight.

And I did practice on the keyboard, but I didn't get my calls in. Guess I've gotta stay up today. I can do it!

A lot of people need their asses kicked. Do you get a break this weekend?

I get a break after 9 tonight and after 3 tomorrow. I actually had a date lined up for Saturday and a friend gathering for tonight. :( I'll probably end up canceling. Oh well. Any big plans for the weekend?

57. You got Grovelbot


I know the feeling of having to give up a weekend 'cause I got sick. And good weekends are hard to come by this winter.

I'll train with Teacher first thing (8am) Saturday morning. He just turned 75. I was talking to my fellow taichi brother (and senior student) and we're worried that we're the last 2 senior students and Teacher may decide he's had enough and retire. (There's that mortality thing, too.) so we're practicing as much as we can with him.

48. yea, things could be better, but...
as i watch the morning gather a bit more color every minute and the lights on the dining hall across the way get relativley dimmer to the surrounding sky... stuff like this reminds me that things will turn out alright, somehow. i dont know maybe its just a reminder of when i would wake up early to watch the sun come up then go back to bed. i cant say. only thing i can say is that things will get better, im pretty sure anyway, and if they dont... they dont. just gotta live life and hope for the best. for now a sunrise is about as specific i can get on 'the good stuff' lol. sorry.

And you're right, things always get better. We never really know why stuff happens, but I'm a firm believer that they happen for a reason. I'm sure things will work out and you'll be back to your usual self in no time at all. :hug:
