child prodigy, zits and sickness....

so much has been going on, i feel like i am in a rush to do everything. this working for a living is REALLY cramping my style. let's see.....last week nick had some "mysterious" sickness that left him with a temp of 103.7. this week he went for his normal 18 month checkup and was fine. he usually talks all day long, but as soon as the doctor walked in the door he was like a mute. so then i am overcompensating, trying to get him to at least say 1 word. she's like, "so do you think he has 15 words?" i'm all, yeah, "he says, bike and airplane and boat and shoe, oh and he can say shoe in polish.." and he can say....blah blah blah, but i felt like a total liar cuz the kid wouldn't even say mama. i wanted to pinch him to get him to at least say "ouch". then as soon as she left the room, i opened a box of raisins and he says, "newman." thanks buddy, newman is the guy on the front of the raisin box. thanks for making me look like a total a-hole in front of the doctor and then you act like a prodigy when we are alone.
anyway, now i am sick. i have a cold that i am fighting with every type of over the counter medication possible. i have taken day-quil, ny-quil, tylenol sore throat, chloraseptic strips, halls drops, you name it. oh and like every vitamin possible, which i try to do on the sly not anywhere near jason because he swears that when i take echinacea and all of those vitamins, that i smell funny. whatever dude, i'm sick. i smell. i am going to take a nap right now, as a matter of fact. hopefully all of this medication i'm taking will also kill the zit on my face. what is going on? my skin has been REALLY bad lately. zits popping up left and right. for all the good i am doing my body, it's not responding the way i'd like. maybe i'll just go back to drinking jack and smoking so i can have clear skin again.
nap time....
