Ugh. I can't taste anything. This sucks. It's like chocolate has no meaning anymore.

sobs

Maybe it's time to organise an airdrop of 98% cocoa...

There's never a time when chocolate has no meaning.

have you tried napalming your sinuses with menthol crystals?

*edit* Apologies for problem solving mode. Have this too

((((((((((((((((((((e-hug))))))))))))))))))))))

Yeah, I have my little Vicks hankie at hand. But I look hideous. My hair's a mess, I'm wrapped up in woollies and I'm as pale as the Grim Reaper herself after a drunken girls' night out. My eyes are all dark and shadowy too and if my iPad doesn't stop autocorrecting my grammar I'm going to kick the shit out of it.

At the risk of being annoying, let me say that menthol crystals are a lot more powerful than vicks. A pinch into a bowl of boiling water, your head over the bowl and a towel over the lot. It will clear your sinuses in much the same way as a flamethrower clears a wax museum. Definitely worth a trip to the chemists

Hope you're better soon anyway.

Not sure if this is a non sequitur, but something I miss from relationships is looking after a poorly partner. I don't know why, but it seems to engender a kind of intimacy that you don't get from more squelchy activities. I have no idea why that might be - there's probably a segment of kink devoted to it

I'd love to have my mister here taking care of me. But I'm glad that he doesn't have to see me up gross and personal...

I am so going to wear sunglasses to the MOT centre. Might stop off at Asda for a lemon on the way home.

some of my happiest memories of my ex are of her wrapped around a hot water bottle under a quilt on the couch, being fed wine and chocolate by me.

Not helping you any, I know, but it's a happy memory for me and I felt like writing it down....

Good luck with the MOT

That's a nice memory. I think a hot water bottle and a hot toddy tonight will be on my cards. I'll have to choose appropriate DVD viewing too. Can't wait to get home from this stupid MOT so I can just lie and snooze the rest of the afternoon. It sucks. I've been poorly for the last two days, this is now day #3 of SickSerpentine.

grabs tissue to assault already red nose

Ugh. It's just awful is what it is. I've been subjected to Murder, She Wrote and Columbo reruns all morning.

 

[Niceandbrutal]

Ugh. Murder she hopes... You have my sympathies.

You love it. I seem to recall you're the leader of the Jessica Fletcher Fan Club on Facebook.

Now that's just wrong. One more post like that and I will keep the chocolate to myself.

Aw! *tosses delish norwgian milk chocolate at PS*

Now I think I shall curl up and watch Jaws! Screw this cold.

 

[prettyserpentine]

One of my absolute favorite movies EVER! The Blu-Ray release was incredible (and they showed it on the big screen at a small theater near here which was amazing)

If you can, I also suggest Close Encounters...which holds up SO well!

It's incredible. I love Jaws. I must have seen it about a hundred times, but when I'm poorly I always watch my old favourites. Already watched Star Trek, if I still feel like crap tomorrow I might have to break out Star Wars too, or else a pile of Miyazaki movies.

But as for now I think I'll just lie in bed here in the dark and stuff tissues up my nose until it stops running.

God I feel crap-tastic.

sends soup and tasty breads

Thanks. You're a sweetie. I hope you don't catch it... Don't worry- I won't try and lick you or anything.

curls up in bed and moms on the tasty treats

let me cheer you up with some gentle humour


Q. What's the slimiest thing in the world?

A. Two eels fucking in a bucket full of snot.

Given what's coming out of my eyes and nose and what I'm coughing up...

No, Bert. No.

You're coughing up eels?

That sounds pretty awful

 

[Bert_Fegg]

Morning Miss Serpentine. Hope you're feeling better today. If not now, then after a cup of tea and a bacon butty, or whatever is your breakfast of choice.

Good morning to everyone else too - Hope we all have a lovely Sunday...

Morning Bert,

Still feeling pretty darn rough. I think I may just laze in bed today.

That sounds like a well thought out plan

Yeah, I spent a lot of time planning it. First movie of the day: How To Train Your Dragon.

Love this movie.
