Thursday Thirteen & stuff


I caught the bug! You remember that I said last weekend, that I went out to get tickets for the Corpus Christi Ballet of The Nutcracker? And ended up with a flat tire? Out alone because Bud was home, sick, in bed? Well he hasn't improved much in the last few days and yesterday I woke up with a scratchy throat. I took some Alka Seltzer Plus and have been consuming Green Tea like it's going out of style! I actually think the Green Tea is helping....it feels so good going down the raw throat. And it has made the nasty cough subside. You know me, I don't like taking drugs if I can help it, so being that the tea is natural and that Alka-Seltzer Plus is purely aspirin which I take daily for the heart anyway....Still, we both have the achy. run-down feeling and we've napped most of the last three days. It's not fun!!! Woe is me. LOLOLOLOLOL According to the Oriental culture, Green Tea, is a miraculous thing. Oh ya, and I'm saving the tea leaves. I hear they're good for outdoor and houseplants!! A miracle grow in disguise.
:::cough::: :::snuff::: :::sneeze:::
Don't get too close!!! I WILL get to all those that left comments yesterday when I can...the strain right now is taking me back to bed about every two hours.

My thirteen this week comes from a wise ol' lady named Jefé [pronounced HEH fay in Spanish slang - meaning 'boss or chief', being in this case, a "chieftress" but I like Jefé - you guessed it, I really DO have chin whiskers'] These are thirteen tried and true living experiences from the aged one with her keen perception on life-------

Old age is when you still have something on the ball but you are just too tired to bounce it.

I've come to the conclusion a hired investor IS a broker. Trust me.

Roman paramedics refered to IV's as "4's".

Face it....Disney World is a people trap operated by a mouse!

Superman could stop bullets with his chest, but always ducked when someone threw a gun at him. Hmmmmm.

Never trust a stockbroker who's married to a travel agent.
