Let's see, in middle school I was also a fan of the deep-fried burrito at lunchtime, which you could dip into "cheese" (which quickly turned Saran-Wrappy on top as it cooled)!<br /><br />I've seen the DQ Pumpkin Pie Blizzard, too, but have yet to try it. Hey! That gives me an idea for my next blog post! <br /><br />On that note, it's time for me to go for my run. :)Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12063257092421372797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8228253086758002161.post-72455172343214898252009-10-14T20:31:29.974-05:002009-10-14T20:31:29.974-05:00Oh yes.

Are you keeping other secrets? I hope so!

I would be miserable. ;) I am glad to hear that you have recovered and had both a lovely nurse and a napping companion. <br /><br />Yippee! I can't wait! There's nothing better than a tiny present, except a tiny present arriving via post!<br /><br />I can't explain the Corn Nuts. It was a hankering. (They were Ranch flavored, no less!) It harkened back to my middle school days, when my snack of choice was Corn Nuts and a cream soda.

Sorry to be lax in my reading: surely ...Hey there! Sorry to be lax in my reading: surely I could have browsed your posts while recovering from SWINE FLU! That's right - swine flu, N1H1, the plague, whatever you want to call it - but I've had it. Seriously, the sickest I've ever been as an adult... now I understand why the flu was once called the bone-breaking illness! <br /><br />I lost two weeks of my life to the various stages of progression: first, a nasty gastrointestinal episode (which, by the way, will permanently eliminate any food consumed at a tailgate party from my life's menu); second, a lovely high fever - headache combo (at which point I realized that something more than a stomach bug was afoot); third, intense body aches and painful skin resulting in an inability to sleep and/or find any solace; fourth and finally, a lovely upper respiratory infection marked by a sore throat and nasty cough. <br /><br />Fortunately, I was blessed by the attentions of a lovely sick-nurse and a cat happy to nap with anyone under any circumstances, frequent calls from the sisters and the father (Duane, that is, not the Big One), and Hazel Smith's jello-yogurt surprise. <br /><br />I did manage to read a couple of books while otherwise incapacitated: The Help (Pretty Good), Gilead (Fantastic!) and The Elegance of the Hedgehog (Annoying at first but rewarding in the end). <br /><br />What didn't I do? Leave the house for 5 days in a row, eat anything but soup (sorry Hazel, but Joe loved the treats!), check my e-mail, do anything that required effort beyond the turn of a page or the click of a finger, play computer scrabble - not even one little game, or check your blog! <br /><br />I've missed so many great posts and fear that I'll never be able to respond to all of them; however, several have piqued my curiosity and simply beg for a response, so I'll try to get caught up... <br /><br />By the way, I bought you a tiny little present today, so I'll get Joe to ship it off tomorrrow. Look for it soon!<br /><br />Much love, as always!<br />ldkLauraAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07030444478673444985noreply@blogger.com
