Sick and Tired

I am sick and tired of feeling sick and tried. Why is it that for months at a time I never catch a cold and then BLAM! I have gotten sick twice within the last month.

Other then getting sick I had a pretty good weekend. First on Friday my girl E made an awesome veggie type stir fry with tofu and then we caught up on the episode that we missed of True Blood. Mixed verdict on True Blood, the end of season two did not impress me. I felt that they tried to cram too many plot lines line for next season into the last 5 minutes.

Saturday was my mental relaxation day. This meant I grabbed my cooler and a couple of fishing poles and headed out to Card Sound Road. Nothing relaxes me more than having a beer in my hand and watching the water go by. My friend Barracuda met up with me and after 3 hours of listening to his endless conquest of women on Face book and My Space I couldn’t take it anymore. He was killing my buzz big time. So we packed up and hit Alabama Jack’s. If you have never been to Alabama Jack’s it is a throw back in time. It is fried seafood goodness with red neck flair. Live country band, waitresses missing teeth, food served in paper plates…what else can you ask for. I had the conch fritters with coleslaw and sweet potato fries while Cuda had grilled dolphin.

Sunday saw me and E making blueberry pancakes for the first time. My dad ate em and he didn’t die so I guess I am getting a little good at this cooking thing. For lunch we went to Arbetter’s Hot Dogs and we had the kraut dogs and chili cheese fries. What can I say, everything taste better with chili and cheese. Then for dinner we went to Shibui’s to celebrate my sister’s birthday. I never would have thought that I would see my parents at a sushi restaurant, but hell must be freezing over since this would be the second time there for them. Of course, just cuz you get someone to go to a sushi place doesn’t mean that they are going to eat sushi. We had a wide assortment of rolls and pieces and appetizers. At least I got the old folks to try Kiran Light beer and they loved it.

Yesterday and today I am sick as a dog, called in sick yesterday and sucked it up and coughed my ass to work today. Last night we also had our Monday night ritual of watching 24 and then Lost season 3. I am not feeling 24 this season so far, and Lost oh well what cha gonna do. I feel like fast forwarding to the new season and just getting it over with.

Alright I am taking my butt home and going to sleep before it starts to pour.
