Well That Was Interesting…

With all the sick kids Kim was looking after last week it was not very surprising that I came down with the flu Thursday evening and Friday morning. Its been a long time since I was sick enough to throw up but that’s what happened. Not pleasant.

Friday I stayed home and slept, relaxed, and generally did nothing all day. I felt recovered on Saturday and Kim and I prepared to have company in the form of Andrew and Jenny who came over for playing some Gamecube (Kim continued her Tetris dominance) and a board game. It was good fun.

Sunday was my 33^rd birthday (yay me) and Kim and I planned to have a fun little day together. Note: planned being the operative word. Kim woke up feeling like crap, and worse, grumpy because she felt like crap and thought she was ruining my birthday. She cowboy’d up and took me to the movies to see Children of Men (Quick Review: interesting concept, but more a renter if you’re into dystopian visions rather than shelling out for the theatre) but although she insisted we go to dinner afterwards I could tell she was not doing well. Kim’s eyes get a certain kind of tightness and tiredness when the real headaches hit, and she had it in spades.

We went home and spent the rest of the evening resting quietly and renting a movie that I wanted to see called Flyboys (Quick Review: very good, highly recommended).

Quite the up and down weekend!
