Good.

Things I am grateful for as I lie here in a feverish pool of my own snot:

• my blessed husband who, despite being under the weather himself, came home again today to walk the dogs so I could stay warm.
• my optical mouse. I can use my own chest as a mousing surface while lying down. sweet!
• the LCD moniter on the coffee table. I can move it around so I can read blogs lying down.
• I have an “I’m sick” schedule of TV watching from 2pm-9pm when Coffee arrives home.
• the schedule starts with Oprah and Dr. Phil and the rest is all CSI episodes on various channels.
• the dogs are keeping me company. And keeping me covered in slobber.
• there’s a big stack of fresh library books in the house.
• President’s Choice kleenex with aloe lotion.
• linux has plenty of built-in games for me to mindlessly click.
• whole wheat english muffins. I can’t taste anything, but they feel good in my mouth.
• being unemployed is a really good thing when you’re sick.
• napping is a marvelous thing.
• my attention span is even shorter than usual, so I feel fine about slacking.
• Tylenol really does help bring fevers down fairly quickly – even when you’re at 102.2.
• I will be feeling better shortly. RIGHT?!
