Flu Haiku

Daytime TV news
Obsessed with grisly crimes
Off off damn TV

Reading is too hard
Head spins like dervish dancer
Nappy-pooh time now

Rachel Ray talk show
Unremitting perkiness
Off off damn TV

El Jefe better now
Returning to world of work
QG left behind

Lunch and dinnertime
Soup soup soup soup soup soup soup
Appetite sleeping

Nighttime basketball
Games on TV March Madness
Off off damn TV

Bedtime toddy RX
Tea bourbon honey lemon
Hot and soothing drink

Poor baby! TV is often dreadful company when you're sick.

QG - I seem to sense a TV related theme emerging here.

Hope you feel better soon.

Grace at home alone
Well enough now to be bored
No diversions (sigh).

Great one, Zorra!

Don't you think it's amazing that the stuff you can't tolerate on tv even when you're desperate is the daily diet of so many Americans?

I have tried to watch Oprah 3x when I've been really, really sick. I haven't made it through 1/2 an hour yet.

Still little sicky
Well enough to blog
Careful what you touch

Psalmist said...

TV is the pits,
From the darkest realm of hell;
Makes the sick feel worse.

Quotidian Grace,
Poor sick sister, better soon,
This is what I pray.

When you're well again,
If you travel to Cowtown,
We could meet for lunch.

I started to watch a movie on one of the many HBOs, but it was too scary; back to CNN?
(How does that add up?)
