l hate being sick l hate being sick l hate being sick l HATE BEING SICK!

fuck. l hate being sick. it's not that l'm puking up my guts or anything, but that l can't stop sneezing, which is making my throat hurt more than it already does, the cough syrup's making my stomach upset, l'm coughing way too much which is giving me a headache and making my throat hurt, and every now and then l feel like l have a bloody fever.

ok. now that l got that off my chest...
l did get some good stuff accomplished today - l guess l lieed when l told phil l didn't like cleaning. if l'm int he right mood, or not being told l'm doing a shitty job l can quite enjoy it. cleaned the bathroom, wiped down the shower stall etc, and cleaned up one corner of the living room - didn't honestly have energy for all of it, was sweating & half dizzy the entire time, but anyway. did...4? loads of dishes, washing and putting away all but the last (they piled up over the last couple days, both of us have been sick...) and put some of the clothing back in it's corner, since it's apparently turned into a monster and claimed the closet and about 3 feet of space surrounding said closet.
tomorow - whenever l wake up, l feel like absolute shit and l'm afraid to go to bed cus the sneezing/coughing will wake chris up - l plan to put the rest of the clothes where they belong, restack/reorganize the cd boxes chris has went through, clean up the kitchen counters, clean the bird cages (or at least empty the bottom trays, l'm trying to stay away from them so l don't give em w/e l have incase it's bacterial) and *hopefully* get in some writing time. l'm enjoying getting back into the blogging thing, it's kind of starting to help clear my head, but we'll see.

now, onto the newest and sweetest obsession in my life - benny.

first, he's definitely decided l'm his mate, or at least a good substitute. lately, he's taken to flying to me, all fluffed up and doing this little wiggle when he lands on my arm. doing the whole 'no shoulder' routine (To stop him from biting my face, since he likes doing that) doesn't get me very far - we have a blue cottony piece of cloth we reserved for him, and it's both a help and hindrance.
first, it makes him horny at least in part (we've found he calms down completely when we wrap him up in a blanket.) but it turns him on somehow, l'm not sure if it's the contact w/t hat section of his body or what but anyway. only some of the time though.
anyway. second, the help - it calms him down, so we can cover him & actually handle him w/ positive results - not the horny results. he's so adorable when he's lying on his back curled up in a blanket, and the look in his eyes (and the little sounds he makes) says he doesn't mind it all that much.

so anyway - taht's where we stand w/ benny sort of. you'll have to forgive me if l'm not making sense, l think l took too much cough syrup... (not my fault the bottle only lasted a day & ahalf. l'm sick!)

with the blanket he - benny - is also a lot more willing to let me near him/the cage when chris is gone. ol think that's progress.
but. it's 2:30, and l have to be up @ 5.. so.
bye....
