I look forward to taking my cough medicine;

Little black glass bottles with gold caps.
You stick in a tiny straw
& slurp up curious tasting sweet nectar.
I have no idea what's in it.
All I know is that it expires in May 2010.

pretty little femur sittin' in my cherry dream boat
I got blessed 6 times today without sneezing once.
Everyone mistook my coughs for sneezing.

Esther from The Bell Jar has the most interesting sense of humor.
Sometimes, her ways of thinking and actions are quite similar to my own.
This does distress me tadly though, because she's
crumbling into a labyrinth of mental insanity
with the turn of each page!

"I felt my lungs inflate with the onrush of scenery—
air, mountains, trees, people. I thought,
'This is what it is to be happy.'"
