I think I’ll remember my own LIFE

For the most part I’m a relatively solitary person.  I enjoy going out with my friends or just hanging out with them…but…at the end of the day I’m also glad I have a place that’s my own.  I don’t have any roommates here and I can kick people out of my apartment if they overstay their welcome.  I love it. 

The only time I wish I had someone living with me is when I’m sick.  Then I could use them to bring me saltine’s and ginger ale.  They could also take my dog for walks so I don’t have to.  It’s so hard to work up the energy to take him out.  Also…he LOVES saltines and keeps trying to steal them from me.  Luckily, Oscar is cute and makes up for me having to walk him by cuddling with me when I’m sick.  He totally knows when I feel bad and just curls up in  a ball next to me.  What a cutie.  If only I could train him to bring me the crackers and soda (without stopping to eat the crackers along the way).

However, I admit I am feeling a little better today.  My stomach is still cramping up…but I think it’s a mix of being sick and hungry.  However, I’m a little wary of putting anything inside me right now.  I’d rather not repeat last night again.

On a positive note…while sick…I managed to make a pair of mittens.  I love how fast mittens are to make.  It feels like a huge accomplishment to make a pair in a couple of hours.  I feel like the speediest knitter ever (I’m so not!).  Irritatingly, I still can’t find my camera…so I can’t post the pictures…but as soon as I find it I’ll post the hat and mittens posing together (I will not be posing with either since I’m currently looking like death and I don’t want to frighten any little children that may stumble upon this site).  I’m thinking of making a scarf today while I’m home…so maybe that will get posted as well.   

Anyways, enjoy the weekend more than I will!  Someone should go running for me…and someone should drink lots of beer for me.  I’ll let you all decide who gets to do what.  :-)
