harry potter and the sick boyfriend

[crankylex]

I have a head cold, thanks to lord_pendulous.

He also informed me that I am hovering in the nebulous age range between "Kitten" and "Cougar".

All this *after* I took time out of my exam-taking on Saturday and brought Harry Potter AND McDonalds to his sick butt.  I mean, literally.  He was on the couch and I handed the book and the food to him.  It was like the ultimate delivery service.

Even at 5 o'clock at night, people at Barnes & Noble were still all OMG HARRY POTTER SQUEEEEE!!!!!

Having never actually read a Harry Potter book, I couldn't really get behind them, but I smiled and nodded as everyone chatted at me about characters who are wholly unfamiliar to me.

We should have spent Saturday at synnoveaevael's birthday party, but he was diseased and I was in the middle of a four day, 25 page open book final for my business course, so we stayed home like the losers we are.

My final has been completed, he feels much better, and I'm sniffling all over the place.

That sound about right.  :->

Kitten --> Pussy --> Cougar?

LMAO. Oh, he's going to LOVE that one.

I still can't believe you pulled it together and partied after that. It seems a shame that something as wonderful as coconut shrimp could make you so sick. :-(

He's a man. You know how they are, they get a splinter and WHINEWHINEOMGCATASTROPHEWHINEWHINE.

Dare's like you. She hasn't read any or seen the movies, and she refuses to since she says the names are so dumb and cutesy. (Also she used to work at a bookstore, that may have contributed.) Anyway she calls all the characters Dumbledore. *G*

doood... I had the plague of DOOM a while back (that I swear Nikki gave me), still went to work (which included a 7 hour meeting with the rest of the district) for most of the rest of the week... Of course that one day I missed was at the boss' orders since I managed to infect half my district during that 7 hour meeting *cackle*

That sounds like a typical weekend from my college days...

You've never read HP?

*humph* Well, clearly you and I can no longer be friends!

*snickers*

Seriously, though, I've known people who cut others off for reasons just like that. Weirdness.

I hope you feel better. What I hate about a cold is that (unless a person is lord_pendulous with a loving partner like crankylex, you get NO sympathy for feeling like crap on buttered noodles.

And I can totally agree with the characterization of the way men are when they're sick. I live with a houseful of 'em. I can be lying on the sofa with a torn tendon and they'll all come, stand in the living room, and whine, "There's nothing to eat." I figure the fact that I didn't throw something at them qualifies me for sainthood.

hehehee... YOU ARE WHY I BROUGHT THE SOCO!!

[synnoveaevael.livejournal.com]

DOOD!! that was jared. that fucker gave it to me!!! he is patient 0!!!

[odogonefishin.livejournal.com]

yar, he was patient 0, but I still say you infected most of us... he was too busy being a wuss on the couch while he was sick...

[odogonefishin.livejournal.com]

heh... no way in hell I was going to drink that crap ;)

[crankylex.livejournal.com]

You took out half a district in one fell swoop? Does Homeland Security know about that?

*grin*

I mean, it's nice that you guys are big with the sharing, but germs? C'mon now. :-p

[crankylex.livejournal.com]

NOW I KNOW!!!

Now I know why you were all so glad that Jared started dating me -- you figured that he would concentrate his disease-mongering on me!!

:-p

I actually tried to read the first one, but it just didn't hold my interest.

And LMAO to Dumbledore. Oh, Dare, you so funny.

[odogonefishin.livejournal.com]

I sat right up front, hacking and wheezing...

[crankylex.livejournal.com]

I tried reading the first one, several times. It never managed to hold my attention.

I just didn't get the attraction everyone had for it. I felt the same way about Lord of the Rings. Dude, who really cares THAT MUCH about Middle Earth?

So, no HP for me. But he was halfway through it last night, so at least someone here was enjoying it.

*grin*

That's why they sell more than one book at Borders!

I have friends who are deeply into TV shows I don't watch, read writers I can't stand, and I still love 'em (the friends, not the writers *smirk*). But I do know people who've cut each other off because one of them loved a writer and the other thought the writer was a hack. Makes no sense to me.

I hope y'all feel better soon, both of you.

[synnoveaevael.livejournal.com]

prolly. he's patient 0 and i'm typhoid mary.

[synnoveaevael.livejournal.com]
