A cold, the banks and a barking dog

i wasnt gonna write here today cus Im not feeling so great, but i may as well, cus im awake. I woke up yesterday with my ears hurting and my throuat burning. crap, that is the fist sign of a cold wanting to land in me. I was having a bad dream at the time i woke up, so the whole experience was bad for me. I could'nt get out of the bedroom fast enough to get away from the dream, but when i did, i went streight for the thera flu and sucked down a hot cuppa to let my body start to feel a little better. John was gone too, at a meeting for the vfw, which made the whole situation just a little bit strange, he is always home. I ate dinner, and then I think i went back to sleep on the couch. i dont even remember really. I wanted to stay home, but that would mean that I would have to work this weekend. I went in, but got to go home at 1:30. I went streight to bed. I took off my pants, and just crawled into bed with my workshirt still on, and slept the rest of the night. I still want to go back to bed, and i will. I havent been sick for  a long  long time, so this is traumatic for me. Oh well, i will get over this too.

One of my neighbors has a dog that stays outside. this dog barks all day. non stop. sometimes he is barking into the evening. if i could figure out which house this dog was at, i would go there and let him out. no one else is looking at him, i wonder if they would even notice. I really wouldnt let him out, but i would knock on the door and inform the owners that i was getting tired of having to listen to their dog.

since i got back up from bed, i have been watching fox business news on tv. they have been showing the heads of the banks that took the tarp money from the governement. these people seem to beleive they have done nothing wrong. if they had been smart bankers in the first place, they wouldnt have handed out money to people that couldnt pay it back in the terms they were forced to take. I know the banks have to be assisted, or worse things could happen, but it really irritates me. if I went out and spent my money unwisely, no bank is going to come along and bail me out. or you  for that matter. or anyone. it really bothers me. this is our money that is being used to bail them out. but if someone wants to refinance their home so they can still live there, and pay for it, oh noooo, cant do that.

two more nights and my long weekend is here. 5 days off. that dog is really driving me nuts. constant barking. well, i think im done here for today. see ya all later

  3. Poor Lisa.....I do want to know if the Theraflu keeps you from getting sick.......

    And I know what you mean about the weird bad dreams - every once in a while I get them and although I rarely remember the details they are very uncomfortable and it takes me a bit to get back to the "real" world.
