Self-Indulgence
When I'm sick, I try not to be too much of a baby. I mean, I don't really appreciate it when my loved ones whine and complain when they're ill, so I make a reasonable effort to be considerate and not be overly demanding (even though yesterday someone did accuse me of behaving like I had a man-cold!).
But sometimes you need a little TLC. You just want something warm and smooth and creamy to make you feel better, you know? I've been dreaming of cream of potato soup. And cream of wheat. And maybe some roast pork egg foo young (OK, that's not creamy, but it is warm). Mmmm, that would hit the spot.
So that's what I did all day yesterday--I pretty much ate non-stop (including some delicious and nutritious Nutella on toast) and cranked up the tunes. And watched The Daily Show. And played Wordscraper. And blogged. And blew my nose.
All in all a very self-indulgent day.

You're fine. I am such a baby when I get sick and make demands for people
to do everything for me. Hope you get back up to 100% soon.
thanks andy. i feel better than i did yesterday. i guess i'll have to ask
my husband to read this post and see what his opinion is on my
demanding-ness!
You didn't mention that you put the Nutella on toast! :) Sounds tasty,
and definitely self-indulgent.
First Linda was sick, now you are....it's only a matter of time now before
I catch it!
rick--the most indulgent thing i do with nutella is eat it straight out of
the jar. god, it's good. not much of a bath taker, myself, but a long hot
shower is good for the sinuses.
I miss the Daily Show. Hope you feel better.
thanks, i do feel a bit better today. and about the daily show, i don't
know what i'll do when the time comes for him to move on. i love that show.
Ohhhh so it's TIM'S fault! The Contrast Podcast plague...
oh yes, i think we can safely blame tim for all our ills . . . ;-)
Ok, you won't believe this. I AM SICK NOW!!
