The Pits

Well.  I made it 8 months.  But I'm sick.  And I hate being sick.  It's miserable.  My nose is real runny, my eyes are real watery, my throat is real coughy.  It's miserable.  My mom keep trying to make me relax and rest.  But that's so boring.  I want to jump in my horse.  I feel worse when I do- but...(sigh)... this is tough.  Mom's been pretty nice about all this.  She gets Vicks' BabyRub and puts it on my chest and the bottoms of my feet.  It feels really good.  She told me that before she married dad she would wear Vicks to bed every night if she was sick or not because she loves the smell so much.  What a nutter.  I feel it is safe to say that Vicks is my new best friend.  It soothes me.  If I wouldn't lick it I bet I could get mom to put it right under my nose. 
I've also discovered an enemy.  I know I am young to have a foe but I do.  I believe the technical name is "The Bulb." Or "The Snot Ripper."  Egh.  It's awful.  It is a device for torment.  Mom pins me down, holds my head in place and forces this up my nose.  I feel like I am getting my brains sucked out.  I protest- but my mom just smiles and says it's okay.  No.  Mom.  It's obviously not okay.  Let me try to communicate that it is NOT okay by screaming and crying and making the neighbors think they should call Child Protection Services on you.  I hate it.  My dad never does it to me because he is nice!  My mom keeps saying "I have to do it." "I have to do it."  I never hear dad say that- maybe I should hang out with him more. 

P.S.  I will not be photographed in this sickly state.  So sorry.  What kind of twisted person are you for wanting to see a picture of a sick baby?  Man!

  4. Tell your mama to get that stuff called Little Noses. It's a saline dropper thing. Drip a couple of drops into each nostril pre-nose-sucker thingey. Those boogs will come out a lot easier with the saline mixed with the snot. I hope you feel better. Nothing is worse than being sick.
