I’m bringing sexy back

by Kelley

in hmmmmm

So I am sitting here, resplendant in my sock slippers and yoga pants

slipper-socks

wrapped up in a Lightning McQueen blanket and surrounded by a sea of wadded up tissues when the doorbell rings.

I get up to go to the door, passing the window as I stagger the 10 feet and notice the lawnmower guy literally JUMP off the front doorstep when he sees me through the window..

As I open the door he recoils in horror.

‘That bad, huh?’ I chuckle.

‘It is not swine flu is it?’

dickhead.

‘No just your garden variety’

‘Well, get better soon’ he says backing away even further.

OK.

sick

Holy Shit, mother fucker! I even frighten myself.

Next time, you should go “cough, cough, oink”, just to see how fast he can run!
Feel better soon.

Hope you are back to your usual awesomeness soon.

PMSL, I too know that sexy feeling. I would have hugged him then snort a couple of times while blowing your nose.

I love this sexy feeling, don’t you ??????

You don’t look too bad in your picture there, just a bit hungover, which is kind of sad, since you probably didn’t have the booze happy high first. I hope you feel better soon. Love the slipper socks.

Tell him not to worry, it’s just ebola.

Lovin’ the slipper socks – much cooler than my plain black ones (which I thankfully won’t have to wear for months because it’s summertime here *grinning maniacally*)

As someone who survived it last week, I can recommend a diet of Codral Original (the one you have to sign your life away to get hold of) and dried apricots. And the odd wild turkey and coke doesn’t go astray either.

See, I commented! Nyah!

My housemates have been delightfully telling me over the course of today that I “look like shit!” while laughing and jesting that I have the swine flu.

Bastards 🙁

I guess I was sick first, so this is a recycled sickness in this house, but I think I have it the worst. Get better soon Kel xoxoxox

My allergies are acting up and I haven’t washed my hair in a few days. I had to run to my kids’ school today because I totally forgot it was a short day and I was dressed in my rags and have unwashed hair, watery eyes, and all the other sickly looking ways I could look (no makeup) and I ran into one of the people who interviewed me for a job recently.

I looked really good at the interview. I’m not sure he even recognized me, which would be a really good thing.

Previous post: I guess I have that kinda face. Well I would prefer that to ‘unforgettable cause you were so fucking wild and bizarre and remember that time you peed in a field and it turned out to be a football oval with a wedding reception overlooking it. And they were toasting the bride?’

Next post: I’m not dead. But I think something crawled up my nose and died and is now oozing green stuff. Oh, were you eating?
