OK, my thoughts on Tin Man thus far.....I'm not exactly sure. It's interesting. The visuals are pretty cool. The idea is fascinating. The story is a bit choppy. The dialogue not exactly riveting. It feels like something is missing. Maybe the next two nights will redeem it. It's not all bad, but I had high hopes. My biggest problem right now is Zooey Deschanel (DG). I LOVE her in Elf, Failure to Launch, and Bridge to Terebithia...but in this she seems to be lacking. Maybe she'll sing & save it all.
The Cold-Eeze seems to be helping. I'm not nearly as ill as I was Saturday & Sunday. In fact, I'm pretty sure I'm on the down swing of this cold. Yahoo!! I do have to say, to get Airborn to work, you have to be able to swallow it. Ugh.
I talked to Bucka this morning. He's hanging in there. He's bored & not enjoying his seclusion, but he's following doctor's orders. He did try to convince me to bring my brood over to play Thursday night. He said he'd wear a mask, but I told him we'd probably come visit with him through the window. I don't want to risk my little germ sponges sharing anything with him, night before.
Eventually I need to dig myself out of this funk & decorate the pretty tree in my living room. But it looks so nice with just the angel on top, I'm tempted to leave it as is.
Oh dear.

I thought about leaving my tree naked too. I have no idea. I just really liked it that way. So I went very minimal. Just some balls and one strand of beads.
It was good talking to you today. If I were a guy, not your cousin, and was married to you, I'd send you flowers. =)
As for the airborne stuff.....guess what I discovered works for me? There was no way on God's green earth that I was going to swallow that nasty drink, especially the orange flavored one. (My doctor will just love me when I flat out refuse to take that test they make you take when you're pregnant and have to drink until you nearly vomit. But I digress.) I bought the children's pixie stick-style airborne. It is not nearly as vile, though it's not great. But it's better than drinking the stuff or taking pills. The only advice I have if you take the kid's version is to take it in small bits. If you pour the whole thing onto your tongue at once, I pretty much guarantee you'll gag.
My cold has broken today...I'm actually going to try to go to a hair appointment...with a mask so my poor hairdresser won't catch it!
It's easy to get down when you're not feeling your best. I hope you get better fast.
P.S. I thought last night's Tin Man was a big improvement over the first night. The first night seemed to lack humor, but there was a little in the second. A little humor goes a long way for me.
