I am feeling a bit better today, I was able to take a nap and sleep off some of the nausea yesterday thanks to my husband. He called his mom and had her pick up our son from school so I could sleep. That was so perfect and just what my body needed. That Cipro sure thrashes my body but it works. I just ate a small bit of breakfast so I could take my a.m. dose so in a half hour or so I will probably be feeling woozy & tore up. Two more days of this, I can't wait for it to be over!

I suppose I should be kicking back and taking it easy but even though I am not feeling 100% and it is my day off, I am having a hard time just sitting on my ass. I need to mop my kitchen floor and do litter boxes. I spent most of last night doing laundry - 6 loads worth. Sorted, washed, dried, folded and put away. I still have linens and cat beds to wash today and a load of dark clothes currently drying. It blows me away how 3 people and a bunch of animals make so much damn dirty laundry. I swear the laundry must breed in the night. That was how I occupied my evening, pretty much. Re-heated some leftovers for our dinner and I sat in our bedroom watching stuff on the tivo while folding laundry. Hubby was in the living room with the big tv and watching movies with his new toy - a blueray player. He got The Hulk and the latest Indiana Jones movie and watched both. I had NO desire to see either so I just shut the kitchen door so I wouldn't have to hear the surround sound, fuck he must be deaf the volume was so high!

What is it with guys and A/V shit? Why do you need such a big tv and why must it be played so loudly? If anyone has an answer for me I would surely love to hear it. Quite honestly I can't tell the difference in our old tv versus the new, giant HD plasma. And I couldn't see a difference in the old dvd versus this blueray thing. Maybe I am just a techno peasant, but I don't see the big deal. Maybe because it's not my thing. When he starts talking about why this is far superior to that, etc etc, I find my self thinking 'yeah, whatever. It makes no sense to me, blah blah blah....' Kind of like this past Saturday when we were shopping and I was totally drooling over and fondling the Le Creuset dutch ovens and he didn't get why a pan and lid would be worth $220.00. Since I am a cook I know it's worth, but even after I explained he still looked confused lol. To him it's just a big pot so why does it need to be over $200? I guess if it's something you are passionate about, you GET IT even if your spouse or SO doesn't. Pretty funny though, huh? Cookware vs. Big TV....

Puurrs to all,
