Digesting
Here’s just a very quick recap of my day:
- 2:40. Woke up coughing, which made my still-sore throat even more sore, so I went downstairs to get some Robitussin, in hopes that it would help. (It did.)
- 8:30. Woke up, had a bowl of oatmeal and a small piece of pumpkin pie for breakfast. (The pie is traditional for me for the day after Thanksgiving. What can I say?)
- 10:05. Got a call from the office because they were having trouble with the phone system. The office was officially closed today, but the customer-service department was open, but since the phone system was on "holiday" mode, no calls were coming through.
- 10:15. Drove over to the office to fix the phone system, but for variety, brought Chappy along with me. Which was great because he got to meet some of my co-workers and get fussed over. It was, however, also bad because he got sick in the car (sigh).
- 11:30. A little naplet on the couch.
- 12:15. Drove into town for a haircut–trying another new person (since my "real" stylist disappeared months ago). My verdict, so far? Okay, I guess, but I don’t think she’s as experienced with curly hair as I was told that she was.
- 1:30. Made a leftover-turkey sandwich for lunch. (Gosh, I’m sure I was the only person doing that today.)
- 2:08. Another little naplet.
- 3:15. Drove to the movies with the parents to see Enchanted, which was charming, and sweet, hitting an impressive balance between traditional Disney fairy tales and the gentle mocking of traditional Disney fairy tales. The draconic, King Kongish ending, though? Well, no movie is perfect . . . but this was entirely enjoyable.
- 6:25. Stopped at Wendy’s on the way home to get supper
- 7:00. Took my shower and then finally got a chance to sit down with a nice, soothing cup of tea. (I did mention that my throat hurts, right?)
- 8:00. Instead of knitting while watching television, I just curled up with my book. Far too tired to do anything else.
Although, for the record, I DID knit at the movies, although I stopped midway through when I dropped two stitches. And I called and got a doctor’s appointment on Monday morning because my Mommy says she’s worried about me (grin). And, my poor little Chappy? Apparently so, SO tired today. He’s been very quiet … not counting the pleased-to-meet-you greetings at the office … and of course, there was that getting sick in the car thing. Hopefully he’ll be more like his usual self tomorrow, once all that tryptophan is out of his system.
I hope you all have a good weekend!

Tannenbaum.
House Calls




i like that. “naplets.” i have to take those, or i get migraines.
and thanks for the “enchanted” review. i’ve been wanting to see mcdreamy in something other than grey’s, and this looks wonderful (and i can remember when he was a gangly teen, lol!)
Hope you’re feeling better soon. BTW…Tag, you’re it!

I agree with your mom!
Nothing like a good naplet!
I’m glad to hear you’re going to get checked at the doctor; sounds like you may need something to kickstart your full recovery. Take care!
I hope today finds you feeling better. It’s such a chilly weekend–it’s a good one to be lazing about and taking naplets.
Hope you feel better soon. I really want to see Enchanted and the Golden Compass (I think that’s what it’s called)
I wish I’d seen Enchanted instead of that horrid “I’m Not There”. Oh well. Pie for breakfast and then later pie to knit with!
Poor Chappy and his upset tummy but he got to go to work! Glad you’re feeling better!
