Weekend!

So, last night, Maribou said something like the following to me “you’re sick, you have to eat *SOMETHING*… come on, we’ll make it a cheat day. What do you want?”

“I don’t want anything.”

“We won’t make it a cheat day. We’ll make it a day out of time. A special dispensation day that has nothing to do with any other regularly scheduled cheat days. I’ll order it, I’ll go pick it up, whatever. What do you want?”

“I don’t want anything.”

I went on to have a bowl of plain yogurt with a handful of berries. (A few hours later, we agreed that a pizza would probably be better than not having anything at all. So she ordered one of my favorite pizzas for me.)

But, dang, this whatever it is that is going around is NO JOKE. It makes you not want to eat.

So, this weekend will be spent convalescing from it. I’ll probably also hit Costco.

OH NO IT’S MOTHER’S DAY I HAVE TO DO SOMETHING FOR MOTHER’S DAY

So while at Costco, I’ll have to pick something up for Mother’s Day because we’re doing something with the family for Mother’s Day. I also need to pick up various things for my sister (also a mother) and her husband’s mom (also a mother) because they’re all going to be there at the family thing.

While Maribou is a good kitty mommy, I’m thinking we can put her Mother’s Day Celebration somewhere around next Sunday.

So… what’s on your docket?
