I learn new things about myself all the time.
The latest?
I suck at being lazy.
If I don't get out of this bed soon I'm going to stab someone. Oh, but wait. I have no access to stabbing things because I'm stuck. In the bed. With only my laptop, the remote control, and a huge bottle of Milk of Magnesia.
I must say in regards to my lack of pooping thing, I am impressed and humbled by your response. You people sure know a lot about Things That Make You Go Poo.
All I have to say now is...Um, how do I shut it off? Seriously.
Anyway, you cannot begin to imagine how bored out of my skull I am.
I've tried to work on my book, but I'm half zonked on painkillers. So to give you an idea of how it's going, here's a snippet.
And then we walked outside to the place we first met the giant ant-like creature, except he wasn't there anymore. He had taken his rightful place in the Dairy Queen--seated in the first booth where he was demanding all the cherries. I was both shocked and intrigued by Drako's insistence that chocolate sauce was for wimps and cheerleaders....
Yeah. Something tells me this *won't* be a bestseller. I think I'll wait and start writing again when I'm NOT high. Unless you like where this is going. Yes? No?
Anyway, like I said, I'm laid up with nothing to do. One thing is certain, boredom is not a good color on me. I'm all pasty and frowny and my hair is matted to my head. I look like what a girl looks like the morning after she makes her debut on a Girls Gone Wild video. Of course, without showing my boobs. Although I'm this close to flashing the Internet--you know, just to spice things up. (Just think what it could do for my career)
I've tried watching TV. booor-ing
I've been on Twitter. You WON'T believe the drama that's happening right now. Thank God for it or I really would've stabbed someone by now--mostly likely, ME. (by the way, as I'm writing this Twitter is down. I repeat, someone broke Twitter. My whole body is starting to itch and my left eye won't stop twitching. I *may* have a Twitter addiction)
I've watched more college football than I care to admit.
And now I'm counting the seconds until the NFL Countdown Show starts.
I've begged, I've pleaded...Pleeeeaase let me get out of the house. Just for a minute. I want to see the sun. Wait. I've forgotten what the sun looks like. Oh God, it's the bright orangey thing in the sky right? Right?!
I'm losing my mind. I mean, I know my mind has been scrutinized and its sanity questioned ever since I started talking about midgets and their sexual practices, but seriously, I think I'm REALLY losing it this time.
I'm starting to forget how to do things--like drive a car, take out the garbage, write my name. Oh for the love of Pete, somebody please send wine. Er, I mean....
Oh. There's the alarm. Time for more pain medicine.
What were we talking about?
And why am I craving a hot fudge sundae?
Weird.
Why are you looking at me like that?

Watch "Evolution" on HBOW at 10:30AM, then football. This will help feel better soon! :)
I've been on the couch for 2.5 weeks after surgery. I have to say, even with the lack of tv options (daytime tv suuuuucks), I've been enjoying my downtime. My whole life I've been on the go, never taking a break, always multitasking. This is the first time I've allowed myself to do NOTHING and let people take care of me...I'm kind of enjoying it.
Enjoy your blob time, they come around so infrequently. :)
Sorry you're frowny! I have to admit that sitting around high on drugs all day sounds pretty good to me right now. ;)
The only positive that I can bring to your situation is that the Amazing Race is on tonight!!
I could totally see you and Tommy racing around the world. Hey and it's for a million bucks to boot!!!
Dear Shauna,
Thanks a lot for breaking Twitter! Now how will I find out when the police file charges against the #balloonboy parents? ;-)
You know what I tell my kids? Enjoy the boredom. Love the boredom. Embrace. The Boredom.
For tomorrow, you will be busy again and you will want to just slow down and rest.
Plus, you've got a whole slew of friends eager to chat with you!
Dude, I'm SO ALL ABOUT THE LAZY. It's kind of like being the queen, reclining in the bed and "bring me my wine" and "fetch me my Coffee Heath Bar Crunch" and then I'm to fat to get out of the bed and so I just keep downloading books onto my Kindle and then I take a nap...
And *I'm* not even on any drugs.
I'm totally your hero now, right?
okay, this post has confirmed that I will eat fiber every day for the rest of my life
Hope this will make you laugh. Another poop story. I'm a nurse and on Friday I had a patient who was so fat we had to put him in a ceiling sling/lift so he could do his business! The sling had enough room around the appropriate parts for him to hang and go in a bedpan...trust me, you will survive this...without hanging from the ceiling to poop :) I love how truth is SO much better than fiction hahaha
glad you feeling better! ahhh about the "pooping issue" eating rice will make it stop! Milk of mag will do that!lol
What drama? Man I leave to enjoy the orangey thing in the sky (what's that called again? It's been so long since I've seen it so many days in a row.) and I miss all the drama on Twitter. Damn.
"As I'm writing this, Twitter is down. I repeat, someone broke Twitter. My whole body is starting to itch and my left eye won't stop twitching. I *may* have a Twitter addiction" ~Exactly what was happening to me! That's unreal, Shauna. =)
Btw...seek help. ;)
You are hilarious. I love it when you're drugged. And should I be scared that I understand you?
I for one am *dying* of curiousity as to what Drako the Giant Ant wants with all those cherries...
