My husband is sick. He says I'm very unsympathetic to him when he is sick, and I am, but it's because he moans around like he's at death's door, and if I pity him too much he'll slip into a coma.

It isn't fair of me, but there you go. He has what Charlie had, only with more whining. He says it's the flu, but as it isn't quite flu season yet, I'm pretty certain it's the viral infection that is going around. The big baby. And then he never goes to the doctor, which pretty much ensures if he has something it's going to get worse and he's going to give it to me and/or Charlie.

I suppose part of my resentment lies in the fact that when I get sick I don't get to lie about all day moaning.

Meanwhile I'm still internally squeeing over my Terry Pratchett encounter yesterday. It was way cool. He put '333' in my Good Omens book. Thought that was funny.

Anyway, off to bring the big baby some Gatorade. More later!

Oh, what a baby! Though that tendency isn't just limited to men. I had a roommate in college who would flop around the apartment, complaining that she was going to *die* if her cold didn't get better. Then she would sit on the couch for days eating fishsticks and peas and carrots and mope if anyone wanted to watch something besides the *Lifetime Movie Network* because she is *oh so* sick and we should all bow down to her.

And that is why we only lived together for one year. ;)

(Do you mind if I friend you? I saw you first on slammerkinbabe's journal, but you have been popping up all over my flist. I've lurked here a bit, and I am fond of your journal.)

Oh, please do friend. I always like what you say on slammerkinbabe's journal. You're interesting!

Love the Woodstock icon, by the way. :)

I like my little Woodstock. He is part of a statue from the Peanuts on Parade art exhibit we had in Minnesota a few years ago. Snoopy (in this case with Woodstock on his belly) statues all over the city, painted by different organizations. We've also had Charlie Brown Around Town and a Lucy one that I can't remember the name of. This one is for a local semi-green energy company. (They say green, I say semi-green, but whatever).
