Sunday Salon: The Flu Edition

Sorry for the unexpected silence this week. Influenza has hit my house HARD. On Tuesday, it took me down. Then on Wednesday, West came down with a raging ear infection. It was then I learned that your child will be moved to the top of the triage list at urgent care if he is yelling in pain continuously in the waiting room. Thursday, Travis came down with the flu. Luckily, he got up early and made it to urgent care before Winter Storm Q hit. Then Friday Neve went down. Luckily, we have super-awesome neighbors who came and shoveled the 12 inches of snow off our driveway so I could take Neve to the doctor to get Tamiflu. As of today, Cash is the man of the house. The rest of us still feel like crapola. I’ve been reading but I haven’t had the energy to write any reviews. I’m going to try to get some written today in between coughing fits.

Then tonight I will be glued to the Oscar Red Carpet pre-show on E! and then to the award ceremony itself. I can’t wait – it’s one of my favorite nights of the year! Who do you think will win Best Picture? I want Les Miserables to win but I have a feeling that Argo will take the prize.

I hope you are all staying healthy out there!
