What's in my bed right now:
- Two books that I'm reading (Naming Day in Eden and Absolute Beginners).
- The New Yorker that came today.
- A box of Kleenex.
- The arts section of the Times, in case I want to do the crossword puzzle.
- A pen.
- My cell phone and the house phone.
- A rather large stuffed dolphin (or porpoise - I supposed I should know the difference?).
- A new game for the Wii, called Endless Ocean (which came with the dolphin/porpoise).
- A microwavable heat wrap, now cold.
- Me.
- Three books I read to the girl last night.
- Two books I finished yesterday (One D.O.A., One on the Way and Juliet, Naked)
- My bathrobe.
- The rest of the Times.
- A drift of used Kleenex (because I'm too lazy to go find a wastebasket).
- Gödel, Escher, Bach.
- The Robitussin.
- The jello.
- The aspirin.
- The Sudafed.
- The hot lemonade.

Oh no!
but what a good day to be in bed...sending virtual soup...
I'm sick, too. Lots of books; lots of mugs.
I hope you are better soon; unless, of course, you are kind of enjoying the break.
From that headline I thought this post would be about something completely different : )
Hope you're better soon!
Oh bother. I do, however, feel you pain and raise you some Puffs Plus with Vicks.
Bummer. Hope it goes away fast.
Yeah, you're sick, but all the books! Sigh.
Feel better soon.
I'm sorry you are sick. Get well soon!
Go suck on some raw garlic. That will kill anything that ails ya. Feel better soon, M-Pie. xoh
blech. at least you have good company.
Ugh. Feel better.
Yuck. Sorry. I hate it when downstairs is sooooo far away.
Aww, hugs sugar - I hope you mend swiftly!
I'd bring you some homemade chicken soup...but I'm afraid it would be a bit manky by the time I got there...so I'll just think warm, cozy, healing thoughts at you. They don't go off.
Shade and Sweetwater,

oh, man! that is awful, feel better
Feel better soon!
Endless Ocean sounds mindlessly soothing, but I have been hestitant to actually spend money on it.
A stuffed dolphin might change my mind.
Phoebe has complained of stomach, throat pain and I'm praying to God that Ibuprofen and a good night's sleep is the cure all for this.
Feel better
Yuck. I hope you are on the mend soon. And, I hope the weather is equally terrible so that you aren't missing out on any nice pre-spring days.
Oh! Feel better!
(How was Juliet, Naked?)
Feel better soon.
and I'll be humming that song all day.
Feel better soon!
I'm in my bed at the moment with my netbook, iTouch, and TV remote. My coffee is next to me on my bedside table.
Seems like a hopeful sign that you're considering the possibility of a crossword sometime during the day...but best wishes for a quick recovery!!
hope you feel better soon. have seen you commenting on blogs for a long time and FINALLY came to visit.

oh man, that sucks. If I was there I'd go downstairs to get you the stuff. And then go back and make chicken soup and hot cocoa, too ;-)
Feel better soon!
a video game came with a stuffed animal? isn't it usually the other way around?
odd.
