There is so much snow out there I can barely see the tops of the solar lights on the front lawn. One is nearly covered to the top.

And did I mention I've come down with a very nasty cold? The kind where you feel like your head is going to fall off from the sheer weight of it, and you can't sleep because you can't breathe through your nose, and breathing through your mouth makes your throat hurt even more. Boo, hiss.

But happiness: mckitterick bought me the box set of Farscape, which he suggested I unwrap last night. We watched a few episodes before I collapsed from exhaustion.

I'm doubtful that our plans to go see the Sherlock Holmes movie and hang out with friends tonight will pan out. Right now I don't see any way possible to get out of our alley.

Update: mckitterick is my hero. He shoveled the sidewalk! I'm going to cook or bake him anything he wants today...provided we have the supplies for it in the house. The cranberry upside down breakfast cake just came out of the oven, the bacon is about halfway done baking, and I'm going to suggest fried eggs over corn muffins, smothered with cheese. And mimosas. Yay for a stockpile of champagne!

*sympathy**sympathy**sympathy* for the cold. That sounds like the one I'm recovering from.

How long did it take you to get over it? I'm going on day three.

[ms-danson.livejournal.com]

It's been six days so far and three of them were bad. I'm not bad now but the energy my body is expending to deal with the crud is draining me. I think it will be a few more days before I'm back to normal.

Ugh.

Yay Farscape, BOO cold, I'm so sorry, mine's not near that bad but I only have one dose of dayquil left.

OH and my Stupid brother MADE it, and now they'll want us to go to Mom's or north KC, and I don't think we can make it off our street either! :P

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Okay, I'm sorry, but fuck your brother. Srsly. He can keep his insanity to himself. You guys should stay safe at home.

[nottygypsy.livejournal.com]

The jerk is so set on having it his way, he's coming to GET US. PDA is in fine reasonable rant. Merry freaking x-mas!

Ridiculous!

Hate you Kirk is obviously for my brother.

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

I would refuse to get in his car.

[nottygypsy.livejournal.com]

We made it there. PDA was not pleased at all with the drive there. Dinner was nice, it was good to see the family, I'm glad I didn't create a scene. PDA was a saint and made it really pleasant.

I'm also glad we're home and it's over.

Maybe a fire and some movies now.

Sorry to hear that you're not feelin' well. :-( Hope ya get better soon.

Yay for mckitterickworkin' hard on the sidewalk tho!

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Yeah, he gets some serious yays. Whatta guy!

Oh, poor baby! I'm so sorry for the cold.

Maybe this (http://www.whatkatiedid.com/fes_php/fes_usr_sto_product_display.php?fes_action=DisplayProduct&fes_prd_id=464&fes_uid=fes_4b33917db1a6c) will help?

Comments here (http://community.livejournal.com/thirty_twod/272193.html) still recommend the Bali Flower :) Luvverly!

and oooh, those foodie things.. yummy! I'm digging on the three bottles of vino and champers my folks sent me home with for Xmas. No need to go anywhere really.

I'm very happy I did all my grocery shopping early last week. I stocked up because I knew I wouldn't want to go to the store during my three day weeked. Little did I know I wouldn't be able to go to the store!

And hurray for booze stockpiles, yes!

I'm sorry you were sick over the holidays. I hope you are feeling better now. I think the upside to me being so secluded is I'm not exposed to stuff going around.

Your baking sounds great!

And yeah for McKitterick--I hope this shoveling didn't bother his shoulder. I'm still sore form all of the shoveling I did at various times. I think the worst was on Xmas day when I shoveled for 2 hours straight . . .

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Two hours? What, did you have to shovel your street? Poor thing!

[bestill.livejournal.com]

That was just 2 hours the first time . . .

The snow plow pushed all of the snow blocking everyone on my side of the street in. I guess they thought the dead people in the cemetery might need out . . .
