Sorry I Haven't Posted in a While

Hello my millions of readers.

I have been feeling quite poorly for the past couple of weeks – including headaches that just get horrendously worse when I read anything, especially things on the computer.

As a result of this, I have been watching a lot of daytime TV. I have to tell you that while court shows are the original reality TV, they bring out a type of people watching that is reserved for being at the state fair with my deep-fried, chocolate-covered Twinkie. Come on people! When you have an agreement to pay a bill, pay it! Having troubles at work or, more often than not, mismanaging your money does not mean it is OK to pass your burdens off onto another person! This is not stated directly in the Ten Commandments, but it is implied there and stated elsewhere.

I have also heard a lot about Barry Bonds. Breaking the record kind of makes me sad. A big part of it is because did a lot of HUI (hitting under the influence). But another part is that there has been a long running record – something that has been a part of Americana for many decades. Now Mantel’s record is gone, never to be number one again. I kind of felt the same way when Susan Lucci finally received her Emmy. She was annually setting and beating her record of being nominated and not winning.

Well, my headache is starting again, so I am going to sign off. What have you been watching/doing lately?

Sorry you've been feeling poorly. The blogosphere hasn't been the same without you!

I feel the same way about Bonds beating the record. :( And about Susan Lucci. (And I don't even watch soaps.) She was everyone's favorite underdog.

I expected a different kind of post (wink wink nudge nudge). But am sorry about the headaches. Been there and Sarah is still there, unfortunately. But court TV?!? When I was laid up and the only thing I could do was work the remote, I watched a LOT of Discovery channel and HGTV. If you get tired of seeing some fruit redecorating a home, you can watch Jamie and Adam blow up a toilet. Doesn't get much better than that...

{{Hugs}} hope you are feeling better soon, I know what you mean about headaches, and not feeling well. I'm returning back to work after a week of being home with pink eye and a serve sinus infection.

As for t.v. I'll take a good book to read.

dotkat, we don't have fancy schmancy cable - so court tv is what I've got. But sometimes My Sweet is able to get Jamie and Adam off the internet.
