i have the flu again (or a cold) again. a consequence of a lot of stress accumulated over the past few weeks and the fact that fred had it. but, hey, i can't complain at least he went to jean coutu to get a few things for me.

on a lighter note, y. came by yesterday and brought me a balloon that says 'get well soon'. the kind you get in hospitals because, well, she got it from the hospital. she also brought noodle soup, miso and dumpings probably because she think i won't eat unless i have something really good in the fridge. nounou was being paranoid of catching my flu, he hid besides the bed and under the blanket until she came around. she then had to check his pulse and press on different parts of his chest to make sure he did not experience pain. i think he's feeling relieved because he is no longer hiding today.

the wake is tonight. i'm sick as a dog (no offence, schweppes) but i'll try to take pills with pseudo-ephedrine, they kick my ass but at least i'll be able to show up for a couple of hours. my mother told me i didn't have to, but, well i know i have to.

i had to move her car earlier on and hit the curb 3 times. i actually broke a sweat while doing it. oh boy. needless to say, i'm not looking forward to driving all the way to the east end tonight.
