80% better, and other random thoughts
So I'm not quite 100% better yet, but I'm on my way. Today I finally got out and had some sunshine... first time in three days! Yikes. Tyler took me to Green Mill to try some fun food again. I ordered a steak-- doctor told me that people with the flu should stay away from dairy (quick helpful tip for any of you who should be so unfortunate to suffer this same crap). The steak was great, but after two bites or so, I was full. I think my stomach shrunk in this process. Probably won't last, I am built to consume after all:) but it was kinda weird. I have a big box of leftovers, which is okay because I love cold steak. Especially on salad. Yum. Hmm, maybe I'm hungry.
Apparently eating was exhausting cause I fell asleep at Tyler's for two hours. We watched "Inside the Actor's Studio" because they interviewed Hugh Laurie, who plays House, in "House M.D." and we love that show. Anyone who's seen the movie "Sense and Sensibility" will also know Hugh Laurie as the bored husband, Mr. Palmer. Hugh Laurie is actually kinda hot in a grissled old man way. Hmmm. You know who else is hot? Jake Gyllenhaal. Also Christian Bale. Okay. That is all.
So what are all your thoughts on the movie "World Trade Center"? I just watched an MTV movie special about the film. I have a desire to see it but I'm afraid because the preview alone makes me sob-- not tear up, not cry-- sob. I think I may have to skip this one. But I'd like to know what other people think of it.
This is ridiculous. I shut my finger in the car door on July 4th and I still can't feel anything! I think I killed all the nerves. Lame.
Ooh! "Beaches" is on AMC! I haven't seen that movie in ages. Can you tell I'm watching a lot of TV today? I *heart* Bette Midler. I want to be her friend.
Ugh. Actually all I really want right now is a huge piece of cake. Why don't I keep more cake in the house?
Okay, even though I've already slept a good portion of the day, I should turn in. I refuse to miss another day of work and I've got a full 8 hour shift tomorrow *boo*.
Take care. Wash your hands often to prevent the flu and if you do get it-- AVOID DAIRY :)

Hope you continue to feel better!
In response to your WTC question, I have mixed feelings about the movie. Can't decide whether I think it's offensive or a tribute. Might see it or rent it sometime, just because I'm curious. Most of all, I wonder what the reactions are of people who actually lost loved ones.
I would like to see it at some point. A lot of people were upset at first because it wasn't marketed well, and people thought it was completely fictionalized, but from what I understand it is actually based on one firefighter's story. I still have not seen Flight 93 and am not sure I can do that yet either. However, real stories usually do not make me cry, yet completely made up ones, like 'Beaches', I will bawl for hours. Weird.
