I have a cold. Remember when I mentioned that I was getting a cold? Well, now it is here. Full throttle. It’s not that bad-just sniffles and sore throat, really. But still. I bet if I was working in a sterile lab I would not have a stupid cold. No sir. I would instead have a HotNerd scientist boyfriend/lab partner and we would be working on a cure for something or something. Instead I’ve got germy 6 year olds touching me all day with their germy hands and now I’m a big snotty germ. Gross.
In non-germ news, Liz’s wedding is Coming Right Up. In addition to the great honor of being a bridesmaid, I also have the following honors to look forward to:
*Reading a effing rad poem during the ceremony (I campaigned for a recitation of the words to “In Your Eyes” by Eric Clapton or whoever, but Liz incredibly declined. I know. I was like, “what?”)
*Sharing a fancy hotel room with Liz the night before the wedding. Just the two of us. This will allow me the opportunity to a) talk her out of it, b)convince her to marry me instead, and c)promote the idea of kibbutz living. Or maybe we will just watch movies and talk about the old days.
*Two other honors that involve bachelorette party plans and other secret plans that I cannot post on the Internet at this time. I will (maybe) reveal the execution of these plans in a future post.
I’m so excited. I know it seems from this entry that I intend to sabotauge this wedding, but nothing could be further from the truth. Heh, heh. Hmm.
(It is possible that I am feverish/delusional at this moment. Please excuse me.)

Do you mean Peter Gabriel? You were kidding, right? As a long-time and unapologetic lover of Lloyd Dobbler in “Say Anything,” I am vexed that Gabriel’s “In Your Eyes” would be confused with anything Clapton has ever stamped (except for “Layla,” but we all have Duane Allman to thank for that head-spinning guitar riff that changed the face of shitty English rock.
At any rate, have fun at the wedding.
End diatribe.
PS- Congrats and warmest wishes to Liz (this is the Liz that I know, right?).
Kid germs are the worst! The only thing I’ve found that actually works for fighting off a cold is Airborne.

I think the fever got to her, Moose!
Willow, if you’re still sick the night before, you’ll have to sleep in the tub. I’ll get us some walkie talkies just in case.
Seriously, I can’t wait to have our wedding adventures together :-)
Oops!
Sorry, Moose. I’m feverish. Say Anything is a great movie. I miss you, by the way.
