..cough, cough…
Don’t you just love calling in sick? I do. I used to be terrified to do it, but now - finally- I can do it with ease. So today was pretty much a get caught up day (thoughts of my friend wandering in and out of my heart) and I went grocery shopping. Well what goes for grocery shopping anymore: 3 bags salad, 1 bag arugula (think I’ll cook this) 1 bag baby spinach, 1 bag broccoli (microwave in a bag stuff), 1 bag frozen asparagus, 1 bag frozen spinach, 2 bags frozen white fish, 1 bag frozen teriyaki chicken breasts (cooked), 1 frozen pack of alaska wild salmon, 1 container salsa, 2 boxes tea, 10 cans protein shake 21g protein 2 grm carb 110 calories, 2 laughing cow light wedges boxes and 1 container organic cherry tomatoes. Yep, pretty fucking exciting….
I had lunch with WildChild - Korean food. I ate some spicy pork and ate some spicy soup. Looking at the rice ached me a bit, but I was alright after two glasses of water. Then we went to Shiseido and cashed in on the makeup coupons she bought - so I walked out with a concealer, eyeshadow quad, eyeliner and a little gift bag of tiny bowls. So it was cool. Now, the state of the living room is not cool. I need to work on this immediately. My other friend called and she is giving me shit about hiking to Macchu Picchu, Peru for my birthday this year. I know this little skunk does not want to go - I told her she didn’t need to feel like she should go - just stop fucking around and tell me you’re not going already! I’d like to move forward and make my reservations thank you! I’m going alone for my birthday this year because no one else wants to go… my good traveling buddy just invested in a Board and Care so she’s broke and Little Skunk would rather spend 1000.00 on a new purse than go traveling. Wild Child has no interest in cultural things, she’s just interested in where the bar is located. So it’s alright - shit, I can go by myself on an eco-tour - no problem. It’s about time I did something ballsy other than joining the army at 19! But stop dickin around with it….
So it’s back to the grind tomorrow, I need a distraction at this point. My mind keeps wandering to my fantasy world that only exists for me. (Yep, thinking about my friend) GET REAL HONEY!
I’ve got 4 more MF things to eat. hurrah.
I have never gotten the hang of calling in sick. I always feel so bad, even when i am truly sick. There is no way I could fake it. Teach me!
I am glad that your friend was so sweet. Maybe you can see him again soon…
I would love to be able to go on that hike with you. Live the adventure and see the world
Sounds like you had a thoughful day.

I am an expert at calling in sick. I like to set it all up the day before, complain about a tickle in my throat, maybe a little nausea and then I sound really pitiful on the phone. Great grocery list, very healthy stuff there.
