People actually read this?

Well, there's one comment and I had a few people also IM and email me regarding my last post. How come it all had to do with buying myself flowers?? Apparently that's a topic people like. As an update on the flowers, they are mostly wilted, I had to throw some away and I think today is the last day for the rest. Anyone who actually reads this is welcome to buy me flowers too. Just in case you were wondering. Not sure when I'll be doing that again, as it was a crazy experience. The funny thing is, I do buy myself flowers rather frequently. Not too much, but enough that it's funny to me that I got all these responses to it (from the cashier to people asking me about it) this time.

Before I stray from topic, as I seemingly do, let me just comment a little on my latest read. I finished "Running With Scissors" by Augusten Burroughs yesterday. And I was going to start "Naked" today, but I recieved an email that a book I was waiting for from the library is in, so I'm holding off on my Sedaris book. So, instead of my normal lunchtime reading session, I'm sitting here typing in my blog. Yay! So, "Running with Scissors"...interesting. He writes a lot like Sedaris. This was a memoir from when he was young. It was pretty disturbing and I'm surprised at how graphic he got in some parts. It ended rather abruptly, but I did enjoy it up until the end. It was like a car crash in that it was really disturbing, but I couldn't put it down. I enjoyed reading how messed up this poor boy's life was. I had a somewhat "normal" and pleasant childhood, so needless to say, I was intrigued by how different this was from mine. I'm not sure how I would've turned out with that kind of upbringing. He sounds relatively okay after all that. I think I would've ended up in a looney bin. I think I'm close to that now and my childhood was pretty damn good!

Enough of that. I have a cold. I am not sure how this happened, as Tuesday I was fine. Allergies in the morning, which I'm used to. Wednesday I felt kinda tired and what I thought was allergies, stayed with me all day. Thursday I woke up feeling like I was going to die. And I'm still feeling awful. My poor nose is raw, no matter how much lotion I put on, and I just want to sleep all the time. I did sleep almost 12 hours on Saturday night, which is crazy. Saturday was my half birthday and although, it was a pretty good day, my cold came on full fledge on Saturday night and really made me uncomfortable. I wish I could get a few people to jump on board my half birthday, but I suppose it's hard enough for people to remember my half birthday, let alone my real one!

Oh, and it looks like I'm going to be bored for the next 2 weekends, if anyone wants to hang out with Grr and I or go see a movie, I'm down, just let me know!
