Sick.

I am going on my eighth day of being sick. I have a cold, a cough and weakness. I gave it to Barry, so he is down. Right now, he is sound asleep on the couch, sniffling every once and awhile. I looked at him a few minutes ago and his watery eyes are now crusted, and now he is going to bed. He's stumbling around and his voice is monotone. Poor guy. My dad has been sick for about a week and a half or two weeks. I guess it's just going around. I just hope we get better soon, before it turns into something worse like strep throat. :( I wouldn't mind strep and it's medicine, but going through the throat culture is thee worst.
I am going to follow Barry and go to bed also. I had a late night last night. I went on a Police Ride-Along, loved every minute of it. I would have loved it even more, if I could have breathed, so I ended up going home early. Good night world, have a happy typing and a merry night.

Feb. 11th, 2011

Temperatures in Bloomington have finally rose to 30 degrees. There are many birthdays today. It is my beautiful, older sister's birthday today (RIKIE). It is the love of my life and best friend's birthday (BARRY). It is an incredible man who I love to play board games with birthday (BRANDON). Brandon and Barry are twins. They claim they are not identical, but I have mixed them up a few times. They are not identical, they only look exactly the same. Sadly, Barry has to work 3-12 on his birthday. Sadly, Brandon is sick with the stomach flu. Happily, I am babysitting my nephew tonight so Rikie can go out on her birthday to celebrate. Sadly, I am sick. Happily, I am losing my voice. You may say, "Wait, what?" I am odd, and I really enjoy losing my voice. I love the way it sounds and the way it feels. I tend to talk more when I am losing my voice, so it can last longer and so I can giggle at myself. Today, I had to give a public speech in my class. I was excited for my voice, but I am pretty petrified of talking in public. Win lose situation.
Survivor airs Feb. 16th at 7 on CBS. I am very anxious for that moment, as you can tell from my previous blogs, I really like that show. Teen Mom 2 is still hanging me in there, crying every episode. I have just recently got hooked on Hawaii 5-0. Talk about a good show! American Idol is still just as good with the new judges compared to the old judges. I never realized how much of a hunk Steven Tyler is, wow-ee. Usually I am not a fan of the infamous Jersey Shore on MTV, but I am hooked on this season. I am over the Ronnie/Sammi fighting, breaking up and making up. Everyone sees and realizes that it's an unhealthy relationship. They need to stop having domestic violence, abusive relationship and focus on trying to have a healthy relationship with somebody else. And Pauly D. I am head over heels for Pauly D, preferably when he's in a hat. And Snooki, she is just way too fun. I don't drink, I don't smoke, I don't dance or party. Some may call me "boring", I just call myself Randie, but Snooki would be so much fun to hang out with. For example, her sliding down the stairs with a mattress, playing with dogs, going on rides at the Jersey Shore Fair, playing kickball. Her facial expressions and sounds are just fun and hilarious.
Television is kind of my life, other than my real life situation. I have been reading a book for class, Police and Community. The book is called CopBook, it's written by a Bloomington Police Officer. GREAT BOOK! Please do read it, it'll reach in your soul and pull you into the book's events.
I am going to pick up my nephew, have a wonderful day and make sure to wish the ones you love a Happy Birthday today! :)
