What broke my day: Being Sick. And not the I'm going to die because I can't move flu, the kind of sick where you feel miserable, but are not 'sick' (meaning throwing up or having a high fever) enough to have an excuse to spend the rest of the glorious day sitting in bed eating soup and watching chick flicks. It started a week or so ago, but it was a mild chest thingy, but it has reached a ugly, dragon-faced head of grossness. I sound like a man who has been smoking for 40 years, I can't breath through my nose, so I keep sniffling, and I just want to sleep. As for the sniffling, it's not the runny nose kind, where you can just blow and go. No, it's that annoying kind that is too far up your nasal cavity for you to clear it out with a blow horn sneeze without popping your ears; yet it is really annoying not only to me, but to the others around me, which is just fabulous. I'm now crankier than my father (which is saying something) have no desire to do anything, and am so ridiculously tired, I could fall asleep right on this computer. Yet, I still went on with my day running errands, teaching Sunday school, and pretending that I'm up for anything. I'm not doing a very good job of acting however. The worst part of being sick is that whatever you normally do during the day, with no problems, feels like it takes 10 times the energy, which makes the symptoms worse. It's lame, and I'm totally being a crybaby, but is it too much to want to cuddle up with a kitten, hot cup of tea, some bread and soup, and a chick flick? That would make me deliriously happy.
What made my day: Well Harry Potter....duh. But I do have something else that made me happy, but first comes Harry Potter. What I love today is the Harry Potter Movie Marathon on ABC Family. The best thing to ever come to television. I love knowing that there is at least SOMETHING interesting on television all day. It's a small comfort to know that no matter what, amazingness is happening on TV. Who wouldn't want to watch 8 hours of straight Harry Potter. OKAY...so I don't actually spend 8 hours in front of the TV, but it is nice to have it in the background while working out, cleaning, doing chores, and hanging out. But you don't want to hear about Harry Potter (JK....I know you do). The other thing that made my day is that Pamper's commercial. It's just so darn adorable. You know the one, that describes all different baby situations and how every child is a miracle. Well it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, and makes me want to have a baby (and this is why I need to spend time with my nephew...Birth control). I mean what woman wouldn't go "awww" at adorable babies. And the fact that the commercial is all inclusive to special needs, multiples, adoptions, late babies, unplanned babies, all races, all colors.....it's beautiful. It honestly gets me all emotional that the company realized that all babies aren't roses and sugar born to a wealthy man and woman in a happy relationship. This is pretty much the first baby company that (even though it was to get us to buy their diapers) made a commercial that is appropriate to all of their audiences that would use the product. If you don't get all super sappy after watching this commercial, you are either a man, or have other problems.
