I have the "worst head cold ever". I can't write. I can't critique. I can't even edit my own stuff, which I usually love to do. And the poor dog keeps looking at me with those soulful eyes, begging for a walk, but the thought of walking him makes my head want to explode. So I guess I'll post on LJ. *grins then sneezes ( Read more... )

*hugs* Having that kind of cold is miserable. Hope you feel better soon. Send Will out to the shops for you. It'll make a nice change from the recycling, I expect.

*smacks forehead* Will! I forgot all about my Will. No wonder he thinks I take him for granted. *calls out* "Will, honey - will you please go to the store and pick up milk and eggs?"

*Male Scot's burr answers back* "Sure lass. And I'll stop by the jewelers on the way home and bring you a necklace." Then mutters something about "...throw away that damned Spartan pendant..."

Thanks for the suggestion, Ros. *snuggles back into bed*

Nooo. I mean...YES! But I feel too gross right now to go there, even in my thoughts, LOL.

You poor thing - I second getting Will to brew some Pepper-Up potion. And when he's done that, will you ask him to send a botlle to me? While I don't have that kind of cold anymore (only the periodical sneezing and coughing left), I am dastardly tired. So far, after going to bed at 11 last night, I've had 14 hours sleep, and I'm getting ready to hit the sack again. >sigh< I don't get a thing done. Some nisse-care might be nice.

Oooh. I love that your oldest one loves the magical folk. Norway is filled with them. Nisser are kind and caring, but also mischievous. When you wake up in the morning with knots in your hair, that's because the nissers (nisser is plural, nisse is singular, so maybe a better English plural would be nisses?) nisses have been playing with your hair. So long-haired people should take care to braid their hair loosely before going to bed, to avoid nisse-knots. Next time I'm in California, I'll definitely pop by ( ... )

Oh sweetie - I'm SO sorry to hear you're still having problems. Prayers and good thoughts to get you healthy again. You're always so positive. And you're right - and least I can get to the store. But you will too very soon.

Yes, my Gianna loves magical folk. She leaves welcoming signs for the leprechauns on St. Patrick's Day, cracks the window to "help the tooth fair get in" on nights where they've lost a tooth and stuff like that. The girls loved the knots in hair story, too!

Get the rest you need. You'll bounce back.

Oh, no! Annette. Colds are the worst. You can't die from them - but at times you wish you could for a little while - just to get away from your head.

Will would be useless at the store - he'd bring home soda and chips and a hunk of meat. No wait - that's *my* husband. I hope you feel better soon.

Isn't Berte great? *admires*

I hope you'll contact the UN or an impartial party for help with this ballot. *raises eyebrows at tdu000* There have been allegations of . . . irregular counting practices.

Oh, and seriously - if I can do something for you that gives you a smidgen of the joy I get from reading your stories, I'm delighted. Really. :) (I had actually planned to send these to everybody, but I crashed before I got that far).

I got a card for which I never thanked you - it really was very lovely to have something tangible from you. No story about the nisser though... *grins*

I have a head cold too (stupid immune system) I hope yours gets better soon. Two weeks into 2008 and I'm over it already *sigh*

CHK - what are we going to do? Our house gets stuff fairly often (luckily we've avoided stomach bugs)- colds and such, which we attribute to Mike and me working at clinics and hospitals all day. *Grabs can of Lysol*
