Couch Potato

I can't believe it's been almost a week since I posted.  Usually I have so much to talk about.  Well I do have a lot to talk about but I've been preoccupied and haven't been able to sit and write.  Whynot left Saturday for his big Spring Training trip and I'm a vacation widow.  But please don't pity me, because I'm having a wonderful time.  Usually when Whynot leaves I make huge plans to overhaul the house.  You know...clean closets, declutter, deep clean.  I got as far as the planning stage this year and instead decided I'm just going to kick back and do very little.

I still have this nagging cough and now with this crazy warm weather my allergies are starting to kick in.  I made the mistake of sleeping with the bedroom window open last night.  Allergy mist to the rescue.

TOF has been sick, latest diagnosis strep.  Poor guy missed 3 days of school.

I went for a pedicure on Tuesday night.  What an awesome feeling to wear flip flops in March...in Chicago.  After my appointment I stopped over at Augie Dawgs, she mentioned something about a Red Velvet cupcake and I barely heard any of the conversation after that.  Mmmmm Red Velvet.  She could have said she was going to shave my head bald and I wouldn't have cared.

Augie Dawgs has XFINITY by Comcast and surprisingly there wasn't much on TV.  All reruns in preparation for March Madness, but as she was channel surfing something caught my eye.  Soap Operas!  Oh how I love(d) thee!  So we stopped to watch General Hospital which I haven't watched since...hmmm....well I can't even remember what the plot was when I last saw it, but it had to be almost 2 years.  I read that Robin had died in an explosion and I wanted to catch up.  There's a new Maxie (didn't like her)  There's a new Kate, with a split personality (didn't like her either)  Sam and Jason are married and she's pregnant!  Only on TV.  Monica is still getting too much botox, Tracy is married to mobster Anthony.  Johnny still makes my heart throb.  Luke is still alive and kicking, or should I say getting his butt kicked as he's sporting a nice big shiner.  Oh, Ethan is not his son afterall...he's Scorpio's.  And Sam's baby...yeah possibly not Jason's but Franco's instead.

It was like catching up with long lost friends on Facebook.  So now I'm taping episodes to watch when the dreaded insomnia hits.

Do you have a favorite soap opera you can just pick up on where you left off?
