The topic: I woke up with a sore throat

----------------------------------------------

Usually, it goes away after I’ve been awake an hour or so.  Not so this morning.  It still hurts.

It doesn’t help that I’ve cleaned up four places of massive amounts of cat pee, three piles of cat puke (one still warm) and one pile of cat crap.

It didn’t help when I was whining to Brian about not feeling well and wanting a hug while he was holding his cereal bowl.  That didn’t help because I knocked it out of his hand and it smashed to the tile floor and burst into a gazillion pieces. We were both barefoot and this was in the bedroom (he’d eaten his cereal in the office, in front of the computer and was in the bedroom to put something on his dresser on the way back to the kitchen). He picked up the big pieces, I put something on my feet and got the broom and dustpan from the office to sweep and he told me to get the shopvac.  I didn’t because there’s a fine vacuum in the closet right next to the bedroom floor.  I started sweeping a lot of the mess up and he told me again to get the shopvac and for the first time in our relationship, I told him to kiss my ass.

He didn’t like that at all, said it wasn’t constructive.  I said neither was his telling me to get the shopvac.  Then I got the vacuum out of the closet that’s right next to the bedroom and vacuumed up all the remaining (I hope) little shards of glass that remained on the floor.

I still have to empty the dishwasher and put the dishes from this morning in it, I have to clean litterboxes, I have to run the little Electrolux through the house and I should start some laundry.  I really should take a shower because I know that would make me feel oodles better, at least for a little while.

And all I want to do is to lay down and sleep.
