Merry Christmas!


Stuck

I've been stuck in bed for 6 days now.
My ribs hurt, my body wants movement, neck stiff, TV is at wrong angle.
Hubby hurt his back and is now bedridden. Clinics gives T3s.  Emerg gives Morphine. Nothing is working, except me.  Breakfast in bed is at 3:00am and it's faux chicken sandwiches and Caramilk flavoured icecream.  I can instantly tell the movie I'm about to watch is crapola, simply because the background is Chilliwack (not that I don't love Chilliwack), but because it's Chilliwack being bomb blasted by electrical plasma energy, universal force field wave that will end mankind and only two stupid dildos who work at at video store, will save us.
I hope we survive. SPOILER ALERT: we do. Hubby rarely gets sick, after 30 odd years he's scared - and really hurts.  So that's why I'm bedridden, too.

An arm for a leg.

Bought myself a treat tonight.

One King Crab Leg - yes, just one and that's how it came packaged. Price: $50.63 per kg - total $9.63, less my 30% discount off as quick sale price, about $7.00.

Can't understand why, living on the most abundant of water and seafood in the world, we still have to pay an arm for a leg.

And to put things into perspective: a very nice, thick, grade A, prime rib steak from Alberta, costs about $24.00 per kg.
