On the bright side

Mom: Have you lost weight?
Me: I hope so, otherwise what was the point of getting pneumonia.

Also, Ethan and I spent fifteen minutes today collecting approximately 400 acorns from a grassy median in the parking lot of Costco. Fall is here!

hahaha!

I lost 10 pounds during the Great Puking Disease of 2010. I shall always look back on that plague fondly.

I hope you continue to recover.

After watching the squirrels walk the hire wires using electric cables, he decided to run string between two trees in our front yard and then use acorns to lure them into a show.

I now have to dodge the string and squirrel treats while just trying to cut the lawn.

L&WH—Seriously, it's only fair, right?

Slamdunk—That's priceless. At the moment, Ethan refers to acorns as "golds." I have no idea why.

i had the same thing happen to me after i got swine flu last year. it's the least the universe can do for us: we get to look good for a couple of days as payment for enduring that kind of sickness...

Hm. Y'all have me now thinking that I need to swing by Chez Beagle de Fierce and steal Erin's glass to drink after her. E, would you pretty please put on obnoxiously bright lipstick so that I can easily see where you drank? Thanks.
