State of the Blog: Boyfriend Problems, Sort Of

Sep 28, 2016

Boyfriend goes out of town.  Boyfriend comes home with a severe case of seasonal allergies.  12-hours later girlfriend gets a fever, sore throat, runny nose, and cough.  Girlfriend realizes that boyfriend’s “allergies” are the flu.

Boyfriend, of course, is mostly better 24-hours later.  Girlfriend is mainlining Theraflu from her sick bed.  Girlfriend considers taking out a hit on boyfriend if he ever utters the phrase “I never get sick” again.

There may be posts today.  We’ll see how I feel when I wake up.  If I wake up.  I took a lot of NyQuil.

    Ooooooo my boyfriend did this to me a couple of weeks ago too, they always think they can’t get sick! Hope you get to feeling better!

    Feel better! Yes my boyfriend does this every winter

    Just to play to devil’s advocate and to possibly save your boyfriend’s life, I think that it takes at least 24 hours after exposure for flu symptoms to show up and could take up to 7 days. So it’s probably possible that you caught it from someone else.

    Just trying to do my part to save a great relationship 😉

    Hopefully he doesn’t read these comments and still feels guilty and taking good care of you 🙂

A few months ago, my husband killed two of my plants. I was out of town for several weeks, and while I was away, he apparently forgot that plants need water to live. So when I returned, my snake plant and my Calamondin tree were both dead, while his braided money tree continued to thrive. […]

The Find: A Versatile Sweater Jacket

It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.

Business Casual Outfit: Linen Closet
