Some Things You Need to Know About Me...

...and a lot of things that you don't. That's what you get over here in the gutter.

But today you're getting nothing. As in nada, zip, zilch, nichts, niente.

The Man Cold turned -miserable woman cold, which led to multi-kid colds seems to be wrapping up in (frailboy) A1 feverish flu.

I will return with a self-absorbed frenzy because I've been tagged in every colour (funny how you can slip by months of tags and memes and then one day POW, right in the kisser).

Some people are frustrated with tags and memes and don't want any part of them. I personally find it a little Drew Barrymore-ish, Never Been Kissed-kind of flattering. People I like so much actually thought of me and tagged me (now that I think of it, that's a little more Sally Field-ish, "You really like me", isn't it?).
I also like reading these memes because it tells me things about you I might never have found out by just seeing your stunning photos or reading your witty, well-edited posts.

So, I'm in.
When I can come back out.

  5. Take your time and get over this stupid head cold. There are some things that should never be shared.

  7. Get better! I'm trying to keep our lot dodging the flu 'cause we're on our way to the States later this week. We are ALWAYS sick when we go down. Or someone dies. For real. So we've got one covered. (I'm not as heartless as I sound.)

  8. Yuck. Feel better. Soon.

    I don't get frusterated by memes or tags, I just forget to do them. I am TERRIBLE like that.

  9. Well, this is a terrible time of year to be sick (unlike all those other good times of the year).
    I hope everyone pulls through, with minimal drama. (If it's anything like our house, there'll be plenty of drama).

  10. I thought you might be better by today. I'm so sorry the man cold has claimed you when you are on duty. I wish you sleep, good meds, and chicken soup.

  11. Get better! We're evading strep here. Teen boy is hoarse with low fever. Mom has low fever and sympathy pain.

    Can't wait to see the meme!

  13. Oh man!! OR should I say Dang Man Cold!! Sorry to hear everyone's been under the weather. That stinks! Hope you'll all be feeling better soon.
    I can't wait to see your meme follow-up. I enjoy them too. I just think they're fun and flattering.

  14. It's good that families share things--except when it comes to those nasty sick bugs!! I sure hope you all are feeling better soon. Get some rest and let the blog go for a day or two. We will still be here when you get back. :)

  16. Hi ~ Your blog is so visually appealing - I LOVE the way you have the jack o'lanterns in the background. I am quite computer illiterate so I am in awe! But even more importantly - I enjoy your writing. Makes one want to come on over, with beverage in hand, and visit for awhile! Hope your family is feeling better! :)

  26. Your music is crackin' me up! Brings back memories of high school dance team days making a fool of myself in the middle of the gym with the entire school staring at a small group of silly girls dancing around thinking life was all about skits and cheers and perfect ponytails. (Oh wait . . . it isn't???)

    Get better!!!!! : )

  27. P.S.

    I left your playlist on and cruised away to other sites to chat away. This Munsters remix has me simply rolling. I feel the urge to run to the kitchen for an afternoon snack of lucky charms as I park in front of the tv for some high-quality gibberish! (Makes leaving salient and thoughtful comments on other blogs rather challenging.)

    You're so FUN! Wanna move to Grass Valley? It could be fuuuuuuun! I can always use another brilliant, witty, inspiring friend in town. (shmooze ... come on ... say YES!)

    Love ya! ; )

  28. YOU ARE SO FUNNY! sorry ya'll are sick. As soon as you get better go get your flu shots. bummer to have bugs go through the house like this. your monster music cracks me up. I was setting my alarm and didn't realize it was on. I thought my clock was stuck until I heard,...It was a monster mash.
    There is a pretty funny monster mash on u tube with Gregory Peck in Arsenic and Old Lace.
