I have a cold. Not a regular, I'm stuffed in the head cold, by my shoulders, head and feet are achy cold. And when I cough, it sounds raspy, like I'm coughing up a lung, but there is nothing to rattle, so it just rips the inside of my throat like a motorcycle starter. No matter how much water and tea I drink, the cough and cold remain, and I just have to pee all the time.
Sick 2
I keep seeing broken and smashed pumpkins on the street, and it upsets me and makes me angry and pisses me off that some dumb shit, in the name of fun, would take the pumpkin carved by a child with a parent or loved one and just blithely break it into bits on the street. These people should be stopped.
Sick 3
Today, Meg Tilly, famous screen actress and accomplished writer, came to BUF to speak about her new book. Now let me just say, that Meg is in NO WAY sick, as a matter of fact, she is a very very healthy woman. But her villain, is one sick bastard. Reading the book was overwhelming at times, but the resilience of Gemma (the title character) was heartening and hopeful. I suggest you read this book, with the warning that the language is very rough and graphic...Big sister wants to read it...I said yes...I was very lucky growing up that my exposure to physical or emotional abuse was limited, and my awareness of sexual abuse, was non-existent. Meg was gracious and lovely, and I was honored to welcome her to B'ham. I have evidence that I really met her too....
Here is the link to the YouTube site where she was interviewed on the View by Rosie (who did an amazing job of comforting and caring for Meg as she got emotional when she told her story..) She was so real when she spoke on Sunday, what an amazing woman!!
