I have decided that I’m going to start doing regular ‘Music Monday‘ posts from now on, here is what I have for you this week:
Fuck You – Cee-Lo Green, as well as the 50 Cent freestyle:
Islands – The XX
Play A Train Song – Todd Snider
I’m listening to ‘Fuck You’ by Cee-Lo Green at the moment. It’s such a catchy, up-beat song (I’ve probably played it five, six times in a row?). It’s really making me want to get up, dance around the house while singing at the top of my lungs (badly, as I can’t hold a tune to save myself), my body however has other ideas… it would much prefer I go back to bed and sleep…

I had my doctor’s appointment this afternoon, it turns out that the ‘slight‘ fever I had was 37.5 degrees celsius (99.5 fahrenheit), and not only do I have the #madbadflu, I also have a throat infection – which I have been given some penicillin for.
And while it sucks being sick: My throat hurts like a bitch, I am bored out of my mind, I will be missing my nephew’s first birthday because I don’t want to risk him getting sick again (I feel like such a bad aunty, but the last time he had the flu it was pretty bad: they though he had pneumonia and he was rushed to hospital); and I could quite possibly kill Phillip if we are forced to spend any more time together – there have been some slices of awesome:
Aside from the downsides/upsides of being sick, I have also found out there are quite a lot of things that I need to remember when I’m sick:
Yay! It’s Thing I Love Thursday time! Although I am a bit gutted I haven’t been able to post much the last couple of days, even though I have had quite a few blog posts up my sleeve that I have really wanted to write. It’s just that the last couple of days (as with a lot of people I follow on twitter) I have been in bed with the #madbadflu.
This means as much as I have wanted to I haven’t had the energy to sit down and write – I won’t say time, because I have had PLENTY of that, it has just been spend doing things that don’t require much thinking: watching onlline tv, reading blogs, playing flash games (cringe, I know); and sleeping.
Anyway, enough babbling… Here are the things that have helped make my week a bit more bearable:
Anyway, that’s all from me this week, although hopefully I’ll be well enough to post a proper post over the weekend. About to take a mini-nap before my doctor’s appointment this afternoon (I’m hoping for some more gees linctus *fingerscrossed*).
Yay! It’s Thursday, which means I get to post the things that have made me squee over the past week (well, the past two weeks as I was away last week and didn’t have any internet access). Anyway, here we go:

It’s Curious Tuesday time, although because I am in New Zealand (the future) it’s (technically) Curious Wednesday. Anyway, today it’s all about marriage…
I have been meaning to post about this for a while, but have kept on putting it off, partly ecause I’m scared that it will gross out any boys that read this blog (if you’re a boy & the word PMS makes you shudder & think TMI, make it stop please! This entry isn’t for you) & partly because over the last couple of days I haven’t been bothered – with anything.
Not being bothered is probably a sign that I need to stop being so damn mopey & buck it up a bit, so here we go. Operation Bubbly Bubbles is just over halfway through its first week & it has already hit it’s first hurdle: the two weeks before I get my period. It’s really hard to be all upbeat & cheerful & not let things to get to me when all I really want to do is crawl into a ball & bawl my eyes out. Phillip & I are going away for the weekend tomorrow & I’m really excited – mainly because it means we’ll be in the middle of nowhere and I won’t have to interact with anyone for at least five days (how sad is that?).
Anyway, as much as I would love to lay around & mope & not talk to anyone it’s not very helpful & it’s certainly not healthy. I need a list of things to do (or at least try) to see if can lessen the severity of my mood swings – if you have any other ideas, please let me know via comment, anything is worth a go! Here’s what I have so far:
So I’m going away tomorrow, & I’m really looking forward to it… let’s see if I do more than mope on the couch with a depressed but incredibly cute dog snuggling into my lap shall we?
I pretty much started making ‘happiness mixes’ as soon as I had posted Little Miss Grumpy, & thought that I’d share one that I have on high rotation atm with you guys. I know that a lot of the songs on this playlist are cheesy & boppy as hell, but I think that the cheesiest songs are more often than not the most uplifting. Anyway, here’s what I have:
