oh pain

I'm such a pitiful invalid. I was a lump on the couch from yesterday evening through about an hour ago this afternoon. My throat started hurting full-force (not just the scratchy feeling but all out can't-swallow pain). Rob laughed at me a few times. Because apparently I look and act very like a pitiful invalid. Rob was also very good and fed me both breakfast and lunch, though, so I didn't have any reason to get up except to use the bathroom once.

I finally dragged myself off the couch to mail my tax forms, to pick up some throat numbing medicines, and get myself a huge green tea Frappuccino at Starbucks. The cold really helps with the throat pain. It just occured to me that the green tea Frappuccino is like green tea ice cream. I was obsessed with gtic when I was in high school and college. Oh, and apparently Starbucks has cupcakes now. I haven't craved cupcakes in awhile. I guess it's time for poetofthefuture to post another picture....
