FWIW

I have a cough and the beginning of a cold. Yuck. Right before 'Ladie's Night Out', too. I really hate this. Especially the cough. I sound as if I have severe TB, which my drs. periodically check me for. The *also* ask how long I was a smoker (never!) and have I just quit smoking. Jeez. You'd think they could smell the smoke on my hair and clothing if nothing else. (Though granted, I am sure I often smell of wet dog. But that's beside the point.) So now I get to try and scrounge up some meds to kick this incipient cold. Went to bed *really* early last night, like about 7:30pm. and slept about 12 hrs. Just got up often enough to let my little dog out a couple of times. My cat was very concerned and spent the night sleeping on my chest. A 6 lb. furry mammal is not conductive to sleep, either. Each time I'd shove her off, she'd be right back. Finally she slept on my stomach, which was only marginally better. With the dog at my feet, I was warm for a change. Well, *kind of*. There were several sessions of "chase", in which the aforementioned dog and cat chase each other back and forth. Maybe I shoudl amend that "sleeping for 12 hrs." bit to "*trying* to sleep for 12 hrs." and maybe sleeping for about half of it.
Still looking at cars. At this rate I might just buy something quick, as long as it runs and has a decent heater/defogger-icer. We'll see. Now if I can just get a "junkyard special" for a few hundred... Back later.
I also have a stomach ache. Yay.
