wanna laugh?
so.. i just woke up from another nyquil nap (still from the nighttime dose)..and Amanda (my sister) called. I wish the conversation could have been recorded for youtube. It woulda hit front page for sure.
i hear the phone ring, Tyson answers, says "Hi Amanda" and I start banging on the wall to indicate 'i'm awake, I wanna talk to her'...he interprets correctly, and brings the cordless in to our room where i lay in a sweaty NyQuil induced, pillowface creased mess. (No drool Stef, my mouth is so dry)
Hossmonster (Me): Hellllo? (picture my voice to sound like a little mouse thats strungout in a back alley, holding the bottle, but still wanting to talk to her best friend)
Perky (Amanda): LEIGH-ANN?! Is that you?!
HM: Yessss. (still the voice, all the way thru)
P: No it's not!! You're joking!
HM: No, this really is me. I really sound like death warmed over.
P: OH MY GOODNESS! *LAUUUUUGHS*.... Sorry...but i can't help it!
HM: That's okay, I'd laugh too if it was you. Can you please cut my head off?
P: Yes. i'll be right over with scissors.
HM: No. I have decorative scissors. Let's keep it pretty. This is the moneymaker.
P: (Still laughing {so hard, its contagiously making her daughters laugh at me...and so we have a crowd}) Are they scalloped scissors?
HM: Close. Clouds. I dig that one.
P: LA, call Kody...he'll get a big kick outa you right now.
HM: No need, I know you'll call them.
P: You're right. I'm calling Mom as soon as she gets home. It's too funny not to.
HM: So what'd you call for?
P: I was wondering if you went to the doctor...
HM: Ya... sorta. When we called this morning... my doctor isn't in today. And I won't last the weekend, so we called Envoy.
P: (New laughing at me!) I saw an add for that Doctor on Call thing in the Newspaper yesterday, and said to Matt...I think this is a male escort service! Who actually calls this?! Now i know. You do.
HM: (Hacking Laughter) He was no stripper. Hopefully anyways. He was like 80 years old...
Actually... i felt like that scene in Dirty Dancing, where Penny (Me) needs a doctor, and Baby goes and gets daddy, and Johnny (Tyson) says, "she's in here"---
P: (Cuts in with her own DD monologue) YA! Dr. Jake Housemann has his black medical bag... and Penny's in agony, "Whose responsible for this girl?", "I am", "*tisk*, "It's gonna be allright"..."Take off that makeup"...(fastforward, crying Baby on the porch...)
HM: (laughing like a highpitch Hyena) I should watch that today!
P: YA! Oh--- gotta go, Olivia's biting Kennedy.
HM: k, byeee.
Doctor's inspection reports I have a bad cold, that has caused an infection in my throat and ears. Prescription: More cowbell or Amoxicillin.
PS: I'm still announcing the contest winners today. Just gotta take a picture of the photobooth album. Stay tuned.

At least you only laugh like a high-pitched hyena when you're sick. I sound like that ALLLL the time!! Then when I am sick, my voice drops to a gravel-ly Cyndi Lauper. No kidding! For real!
ReplyDeleteHope you get better soon! If I didn't live so for away, I'd pop over with a bowl of the chicken soup I made for sick Hubby yesterday. Hang in there!
kody called ;)
ReplyDeleteAck! I'm so sorry that you are feeling so crummy. I hate colds. They make me all claustrophobic feeling. I really kind of freak out and cry nonstop and have to live in a NyQuil-induced coma.
ReplyDeleteGet better SOON!
