Should I keep getting lots of sleep until this 1.8-week-old head-cold goes away?

Does that depend upon whether or not you wish for the rest of your clan to acquire your illness?

Do you pronounce it ā€œdonnerā€ or ā€œdoernerā€?

Arenā€™t some of us still agape at Precious Dedeā€™s amazing performance yesterday in goal? Because she was fantastic even through the loss, amirite? And might we be burning through work to allow ourselves some time to have Mexico vs France playing on the second monitor this afternoon?

Because that game is going to be off the goddamned chain.

Or is it Donair?

Isnā€™t it too late, since the babby got it worse, with several days of a 105 fever?

Can I apologize for shirking my duties? (I feel great, arenā€™t vitamin bā€™s the best?)

We tried that after near a week of diareahowveryouspellit. The nurse on the phone was is the kid showing signs of dehydration? He still has tears when crying? Still eating, drinking normally? No major fever? Sorry it is taking awhile but just keep him fed and keep up with the pedialite. Was that one of the most frustrating weeks of my life?

Didnā€™t we just do this fairly recently, with similar results? Miserable Jr, temps around 104, doctors telling us to keep him hydrated, wait it out?

What in the hell? Is penicillin not available everywhere? Isnā€™t that what they gave me when I had a 103 degree fever and was hallucinating?

Canā€™t we get science to get some help for these kids? Damn.

Did you go through enough diapers to start making quick runs to the local grocery cause a trip costco would take too long? Were you alternating the changing table mats clean them up in the laundry 3 times a day?

ā€¦
you know if it is a virus the only effect penicillin has is to increase drug resistance, right?

You know sometimes itā€™s more than a virus and consulting a medical professional is a good step though, right?

Yup! Though my wife absolutely thinks I sayā€¦ Yup?

(I had the flu, strep throat, and a hard core yonsil infection all at the same timeā€“the doctor said, ā€œwow, sucks to be you, doesnt it?ā€. I contemplated the Head of Vecna)

Did the doctor at least give you antibiotic for the most-definitely-caused-by-a-bacteria strep throat?

What are yonsils? Is that anything like a babby?

And didnā€™t we heave a sigh of relief when the ibuprofen the doctor suggested using instead of acetominiphen did such an incredible job of bringing zombie-babby* back to being smiley and happy?


  • no, seriously, heā€™d just sit there, slumped over to one side, slack-jawed and drooling slightly. Maybe thatā€™s normal behavior for some babbies, but not HIM. Less than 30 minutes after imbibing ibuprofen he was crawling around and giggling. Wow! Still snotty and vomiting up his food at irregular intervals. Happy vomit, though, he doesnā€™t really notice.

Is it wrong of me to keep stringing along this scammer who e-mailed me wanting me to accept a higher credit card payment and Iā€™d send the band or venue organizer a check to make up the difference? Itā€™s a well known photo scam (number 2), do you guys know about it?
