more sickness to go around always..

Sick again and sleeping lots. I have been meaning to post. I have seen a few notable movies lately. I have also seen a few things I need to complain about. As usual. Tee he'd

Are generics really as good as brand? I don’t think so based on some recent experiences.

A few of my old posts are still getting pageviews by innocent people who have googled on by.

a sickly poo

shampoo is sorry to have so neglected her blog. shampoo is siiiccckk!

three different antibiotics have found their way into my body and my body is NOT happy let me tell you!

lo, i have read and seen much during these past few weeks. in fact, i should be able to do some fairl cool posts.

i  just need to stay awake long enough haha...

it's healthy cough blood

that is a line from super hero movie. shampoo has to cheer herself up. I just found dried blood on my pillow (nosebleed). it freaked me out a little bit. my medicine is making me sick. I went to the doctor and got a 2/day antibiotic. I forgot I have trouble with those....

forever the sickest shampoo

well, shampoo has bronchitis!

i've started a few longer posts, but hit abort on them because they were stupid.

now, my ever-present insomnia has kicked in so expect some weirdness like...

is it against the law these days to play rock videos or something? i mean, seriously. i have been flipping between the music channels and i am seeing the same few videos over and over. i will try my best to refrain from posting in detail about them, but i can't promise anything. haha

antibiotics should be otc for people like me, i swear. actually, my local pharmacy should just carry a "shampoo is sick again, same old same old" kit for me to pick up prn.

taking vicodin with tussinex is a bad idea

I just read brittany murphy's toxicology report. she wasn't a drug addict. her weakened condition caused by pneumonia and severe anemia contributed to her death.

the drugs she had were consistent with someone trying to self-medicate a respiratory infection (they said, not me). so they've given her the ever popular "accidential overdose" designation.

IF you have vicodin, don't take tussinex. you already have hydrocodone in the vicodin. take tussinex's "little brother" (as my doctor calls it), delsim. it's otc. or, take tussinex since it's faster acting, and don't take vicodin. just take tylenol. too much hydrocodone doesn't make you cough less. it depresses your respiration. they don't say brittany od on these particular drugs, but this is common sense. i've never even taken vicodin, so I don't know so much about it. I do know what is in it, however.

mysteriously, she had three "benzos" (as dr. drew calls them) that didn't match any of the prescription bottles at her house. she'd been home sick for a few days, so how the fuck did these drugs get into brittany's system?

examination of her body proves she wasn't abusing drugs or alcohol chronically so, i'd have to think she was at least TRYING to be careful with her medicines. so why would she take three random pills?

doctor's office....

I took my sister to the doctor. she has to have tests. i'm back down on the first floor which is an enormous open floor plan type place. there's a small random area with chairs (as opposed to the occasional bench) which is where I am.

every small sound echos and assaults your ears. wtf? why would you make a medical place like that?

the lady down from me ate breakfast. crinkle crinkle crinkle crunch crinkle crunch crunch. if 90 percent of our surroundings weren't stone I probably couldn't even hear her... oh, she's moved along... yay.

well, the racket from every tiny thing everyone in this huge ill-planned expensive building is distracting me from worrying. being irritated at nonsense does make time go on by.

but seriously, doctor's offices/hospitals are kind of in need of some sound absorbance. someone 50 yards away will make a slight noise and i'll think they're right at the edge of the tiny rug i've found.

damn... I could not even afford to see a doctor here. if I have to come back i'm bringing ear plugs.

well... here's some more folks... no wonder my sister's blood pressure was so high yesterday.

the bunny is in charge!

shampoo is SICK!

ugh (an update)

boy, am I sick. I feel so horrid...

direct tv just called and woke me up. thank GOD I didn't answer the phone. they always ask for daddy anyway.

I decided to do some research on john phillips. in doing this, I have found out a couple of interesting things that have nothing whatsoever to do with him that I may post about.

but, here is an interesting little story that is about him. back in the day (66 or 67, I think) the mamas and the papas were at a party thrown by dunhill (they were on the dunhill label owned by the dunhill company that makes "luxury cigarettes" ... it's owned by r.j. reynolds, btw) in england. now, i'm imagining that all sorts of celebs of the day are there. or at least mick jagger is there.

so, anyway, john phillips sees cass elliot talking to mick jagger. so, he comes over (as in, it sounds like, crosses the room making directly for them) and makes some remark to/about her that causes her not only to run from the room, but to try to quit the band (contractual obligations brought her back for the next album). I don't know wtf he said (yet, bwahaha), but damn. and there's mick jagger again.

first holiday

halloween was the first holiday without my father. for us halloween was just handing out candy to the kids who came by trick or treating (i know some places don't do that any more, but kids here still do). granted, last year, daddy mostly just sat on the couch while I handled candy distribution, but still.

I did hand out candy last night. I had to knock off early because i'm sick, but I made it through most of the festivities. we didn't have as many kids as usual (we usually have A LOT).

i'm not sure if people have caught on this neighborhood isn't the candy haven it used to be or if some people skipped me on purpose because, well... people know my father's funeral was earlier this month.

there is one happy thing: my super cute black bunny is officially one year older! i'm not sure how old he is... 3 or 4. bunnies always seem young, they're so cute. happy birthday, precious boy. :)

well, i'm sick

here's the thing. I get sick a lot. yay, me. so I am sick now, but I have a zpack. hopefully, I will better soon. :)
