Funny or die

January 22, 2008

For anyone that has gawked at those leaked Tom Cruise Scientology videos, here is a parody video that Jerry O’Connell of all people has done on funnyordie.com

Even for those that haven’t see the actual videos, the impression is pretty darn good.

Entering the arena of the unwell

January 22, 2008

I’ve haven’t been feeling myself since just after Christmas. I was hit with a cold (I hesitate to even use the term COLD it was that bad) that if it were measured on the Richter scale would hover somewhere around a 7.0, enough to cause some major damage but recoverable. The problem is, I still haven’t recovered completely,

I’ve been plagued by a very dry cough that can quickly accelerate to a long drawn out wheeze and I’ve yet to regain my usual 50% sinus drainage (I’m a chronic stuffy person). It is fine for the most part, but I’ve been doing a lot of conference calls lately and I keep having to pull the phone away from the vicinity of my head as far as my arm-span can accommodate. Problem is I can miss something someone said during those few seconds.  I mean I don’t want to be RUDE yanno? I have never wished for phlegm more in my life, at least phlegm is productive!
Yesterday however I was hit with another little gem. I’m not entirely sure if they were related to my pre-existing  or not or just layered. For some reason the sinuses decide to rebel a bit more yesterday and it was enough to throw out my balance. When my balance goes out it affects my stomach and I was completely nauseated, add that to something I will call constarhea I was not a happy camper. Wallowing in my self pity I was convinced I had the Ebola virus or something at the time (ok… maybe I didn’t but I DID feel bad).

I am happy to report I feel more myself today, or a close facsimile thereof as I am able to function in the real world (hello real world!)
