"the last one out of the circus has to lock up everything."~counting crows

if it hadn't been for our trip to wal-mart and the incredible shopping list that you allowed me to procure on our tight budget, i might not have made it through the last two days of the most incredible sickness i've known in months. and if you hadn't made those grilled cheese sandwiches and the chicken soup, the NyQuil might not have stayed down and put me into that rather comfortable coma.

and even for all of the chap stik that tingles, the rubbing on of the vics vapo-rub (the creamy non greasy kind cuz i'm a whiner), the doses of thick goopy cherry NyQuil, the glasses of juice and the requests for items to be brought home (anything for ice cream)...i have to admit that the thing that made me the happiest was the hideous neon-esque box of Kleenex tissues that have stayed the time with me when you've been gone to work because you know....knowing that you'd risk breaking the "ask for help with the top shelf" rule and the ominous risk that yes, all of those sharp edged boxes of tissues were going to fall on you if you got me the said box....well, knowing that you love me enough to risk even that meant the world to me.

so thank you. for getting me the kleenex with the ugly ass bright daisies. and thank you for loving me even when i'm a cranky sick baby.
