puffs with lotion AND vicks! this is something fatima and i can agree on.

dreadful cold. dreadful hot leaky faucet of a nose. dreadful raw burning throat. dreadful tender red nostrils. kind of neat deep voice.

i kept waking up with weird bad dreams last night. and coughing.

we made gingerbread scones today with a maple glaze. i was pretty proud of them.

after work we went out to boston pizza for lisa m's birthday. i had nachos and i felt like randy, except i got sour cream. i was in the middle of eating a fully loaded chip and it broke and fell on my leg. basically it was very messy to eat and i now know of one more thing to never eat on a first date. we drew names for buying chirstmas presents. i got tanya.

i went to safeway before going home. i was embarrassed to go in with the guacamole stains on my pants but i tried to forget about it and i mostly did. my cold was getting miserable by this point and i think i wandered the store looking for things a lot more than i would if i was alert and healthy. i bought toothpaste, contact c and the puffs plus with lotion and VICKS. i was going to get conditioner too, but they dont' even have a natural section in that safeway. the nerve!

i fed the cats, yadda, yadda, yadda read my scriptures, yadda yadda yadda, talked to david on the phone (we're not meeting until feb or march now), blah, blah, blah, and here i am with a mountain of puffs following me wherever i go. i think i'm going to go to bed early.
