Muzzy headed spam and some internal stabbing: Random Tuesday Thoughts

randomtuesday



Oh, yay, it's Tuesday.

Sorry, I have a hard time mustering up any enthusiasm at the moment. My nose is really stuffed up and my throat is scratchy. I'm pretty sure I'm finally getting sick. It's probably the swine flu. So if you all get it (and you really should, it's the hottest thing) you can blame me. Maybe stop licking your monitor, just to be safe.

I know, I'm no fun whatsoever.

I've been getting a lot of anonymous spammy "click this link for viagra" comments, but only on this post from January. Like, probably 20 of them in the last 2 weeks. I deleted them all and closed the comments, which makes me feel all weird. What if someone desperately wants to say something regarding the diet and exercise plan I no longer follow??

We went over to my friend Elle's place for dinner tonight. I brought a sort of taco lasagne, and she added some random elements, including fries, steamed veggies, grilled pork and spaghetti. It was...eclectic. But good. She called it our "ghetto Mexitteranean dinner".

Mouse trap coffins. I wish I'd had these last year when I was hunting the rodent in our house. He was a warrior, he deserved a proper burial.

Still have a lot of work-related rage. Thanks for asking.

Basically I'm using NaNoWriMo as an excuse to neglect my blog, because I'm only up to 17,000 words. But hey, at least I have an excuse.

One of my ovaries is trying to kill me. From the inside. By stabbing itself. Seriously, wtf, ovary? You're supposed to be on my side. I'm pretty sure it's not a tumor because they looked for those, twice already, and I'm at least 75% positive you can't grow a whole tumor in less than a month.

Can you?

It's probably just gas.

Reeeeaaaalllly hard, stabby gas...

...aren't you glad you stopped by today?

Here, maybe you should check to see if your tattoo made it up here. If so...maybe invest in some long sleeved shirts.

Anyway, off to chug Neo Citran and slip into a mini-coma. Ahhhh, sleep, you beautiful little slice of death.

Link up, then use some hand sanitizer, you guys.

"ghetto Mexitteranean dinner"= pure brilliance. :) You could make it a tradition that keeps with the Random Tuesday theme.... sign me up for the ItalaƱa GermAmerican feast!

Feel better soon. I bet if you worked out it would go away like that. *snap* ;)

otin said...

Sorry that you are sick. :( I just went through that whole shitty process! 17,ooo words is not bad!

Jan said...

The only time I ever achieve 17,000 words is when I'm talking on the phone with my step daughter. Actually, SHE is the one with all the words; no one ever lets me talk. It's amazing I have anything to say at all.

Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you.

Congratulations on the 17,000 words and I hope you feel better soon.

Sherendipity said...

That is possibly the weirdest dinner, ever. Why wasn't I invited?

Elle said...

Dinner sounds awesome. Sorry you're not feeling well. Thanks for the monitor licking advice. I'll tell my kids.

I wrote about my ovary too. How random is that? One week from today I'm having a laparoscopy to find out why that little sucker is wreaking havoc with my life and causing me to have to live on Percocet. Hope yours gets better!

Jenni Jiggety said...

::::Sprays you with Lysol::::

Get well soon!

Design it Chic said...

The random dinner sounded like something..:) i guess most of our dinners are as random as that.. especially when I'm on my period and i am so off with everything.. ha:)
Oh and get better with the flu!

Happy Random!

Gillian said...

Feel better soon.

Mrsbear said...

At least you have excuses for your blog neglect. Swine flu, ovary stabbings, and Nano. All I've got is sleep deprivation and apathy.

Feel better.

Stacy (the Random Cool Chick) said...

Awwww! Hope you feel better soon!

*keeping tongue in mouth and grabbing germex*

:)

Michele said...

Hope you feel better soon because it is hard enough to take care of a kid today nobody needs the added benefit of a head cold or swine flu or the plague.

Blogging Mama Andrea said...

I changed my comments to word verif and then moderated and this morning when I woke...yep, viagra. I mean really, what spammer goes to those kind of lengths just to leave crap?

Between viagra and the work at home in india I'm all set for life.

kado! said...

hey! first time here!

i heard someone else talk about that random Viagra Spam comment....must be going around!

hope you are feeling better soon!!

Middle Aged Woman said...

While you can't grow a tumor in that amount of time, you can grow, and burst, a cyst, which is harmless, but quite painful. The bursting part. I speak from experience.

Ginny Marie said...

Sounds like an awesome dinner! If this was more of a mom blog, I'd ask for the taco lasagne recipe! But being called the Un-Mom and all, I won't ask. ;)

Jenni said...

you need to show that ovary who's boss!

feel better.

Laufa said...

Eclectic dinners are usually the best...I love smorgasbords! Hope your ovaries or gas stops stabbing you soon!! Feel better!

Karen @ If I Could Escape . . . said...

Those dinners are often the best!! Hope you feel better soon. Happy RTT!!

kyooty said...

My guess on the ovary pain is ovulation.
Happy Tuesday!!

Just Breathe said...

Kado sent me over, I got the same spam last week on a post from June.
It was really strange. I only had one so far but I know 2 others who got it too. FYI

Sprite's Keeper said...

Stabby gas. You could totally make a band name out of that.
Taco Lasagne? I need to try that even if it kills me.

The Crazy Coxes said...

I'm sorry about the whole ovary/stabby gas pain. No fun!

Could it be the taco lasagne? Just askin.

Hope this week gets better!

sitting on the mood swing at the playground said...

Stuffed up/scratchy throat/ovary/stabby gas...yipes! Feel better.

Love the ghetto Mexitteranean dinner.

D.M. Wright said...

Sorry you don't feel well! That totally sucks! I have that same ovary problem! It is my right one - no one can explain wtf is going on with it to me!
get better soon!!

Sarah said...

Cool idea for the odd things buzzing in your head to find a home.

A Tired Wife said...

Feel better ... and then get that ovary checked out.

I haven't had any spammy comments ... yet. Thank Heavens. Instead, I got hacked and someone posted on a few of the blogs that I follow that I suck things. We won't discuss WHAT things. People get their jollies in weird ways, don't they?

That's all I can visit. Have to go sanitize now.

VandyJ said...

Feel better soon. Mouse trap coffins--great thought no more mess, although I hope someone explains to the mouse that they have to go inside!

ArtSnark said...

Feel better soon or you may start getting Tamiflu spam.....

By the way, the tatoo link was priceless (in a really icky way)

Amy said...

Feel better. I am off to sanitize. The tattoo link - yikes. Truly regrettable.

shortmama said...

Hope you feel better soon..inside and out!

Anne said...

I wrote my post, read yours and completely forgot to comment or add to Mr. Linky. Apparently I left my brain someplace else this weekend.

Taco lasagna sounds delicious. You should share the recipe. I would love to try it. Hope you feel better soon!

N-i-c-o-l-e said...

Awww I hope you feel better soon!!

Pricilla said...

I am sorry you are not feeling well. Did they check for a cyst bursting? I had a cyst burst on my ovary and it hurt like hell. I was also throwing up constantly for three days until they figured it out. 'Cause of course I am a woman and the pain was all in my head....

rxBambi said...

really hard stabby gas... I love it. Try Gas-Ex, it works.
Hope you feel better soon!

gretchen said...

My mother-in-law on Long Island has this friend, Cathy, who talks about her gas constantly. "How are you, Cathy?" "Oh good...but I was up all night with this teeerrrible gas. Oh my Gawd. It was just awwwffuuull..." But she's in her late seventies and so has an excuse. Just saying...

obladi oblada said...

The refridgerator clean out casserole sounds um...yummy? I like this blog...Im totally down with work-related rage and the "little slice of death" you call sleep. Love that.

Mama Badger said...

No licking the monitor? You took away my last vice. Damn you and your swine flu.

We just got our vaccination this morning. I was holding out, but after multiple attacks from o's pediatrician, I've given in. So, keep your piggy virus to yourself.

Jessica said...

Stupid ovaries, Turning against their masters...errr.... mistresses. My whole uterus was against me. Then I realized that it just hated my IUD, so I had it removed. Voila... my uterus loves me again. I'm still not giving it another baby. I don't care how many of those "babies are so cute" vibes it wants to send my way.

This is my first week participating. I think I'll make it a habit. I always have all kinds of random stuff I need to blog about!

So Happy Tuesday.

[And I hope you feel better soon. -- Now must go find Lysol spray for monitor.]

American in Norway said...

Hope you feel better! First time playing..yea!!!!

Julie@Momspective said...

I've been getting the same spam and I swear, I'm tempted to click on it. I mean, it's about boners. :)

NeCole@Eclectic Ecstasy said...

I'm always glad I stopped by. What flavor is your monitor anyway???

K said...

I hope the stabby pain goes away soon. And the work rage.

Maybe you can channel all this into your novel?

Kaylen said...

17,000 words is a LOT!!! Great job!

Sometimes I feel like my kidneys would like out. Like they want to crawl right on out...sometimes I think about creating a path for them. Or maybe it's my ovaries. Or lungs. Something...
Feel better!

aimeewrites said...

FYI, the monitor does not taste as good as advertised. A little dusty.

Hope you're better soon. :)

Mrs. C. said...

I generally only lick the monitor after Bakerella posts come through, but will abstain until the flu has passed by!

Feel better soon...here are some good drugs...catch!

Erin@TheLocalsLoveIt said...

There is an awful lot of pms and ovary talk on The Internet today. Wierd.

Hope you feel better. There is nothing worse that wishing your head and your vagina would explode at the same time in order to relieve you from your misery.

AmyLK said...

Sorry you are sick! I will run and get my Germx right now!

Cole said...

I think I've gone through a gallon of hand sanitizer already. My mother says I'm contributing to some new super germs and ruining my thyroid, but at least I'm not sick for now :) Hope you're feeling better soon!!

Anonymous said...

wow, sickness and stabby gas pain. You sure know how to have a good time.

I hope you're feeling better soon!

Lisa (aka LadyWanderlust) said...

"ghetto Mexitteranean dinner".

Thanks for helping with my next Dinner Party Theme. Nothing says elegant dinner party like "ghetto Mexitteranean dinner". Suh-weet.

Feel better and I hope you ovary leaves you in peace. Damn egss.

Ms. Salti said...

I had the stabby pain for a bit there too, except I had to go in for a colonoscopy only to be told everything was fine and it was probably just IBS. Why is IBS the catch-all diagnosis for tummy issues? WTF? It all started off feeling like girlie pain but got worse... watch yourself.

Captain Dumbass said...

My kids have brought something home. It was fevery and pukey. I've been too busy looking after them to catch it, but once I get a minute to sit down I'm sure it'll hit me.

Scary Mommy said...

Feel better!!!

I linked up a bit late, which isn't the est way for my first time, but, oh well. :)

J. said...

My right overy and I also have a fundamental disagrement on behaviour, it think it should stab itself and I think it should stop - my hubby is in the background wondering why it is that we are talking about our ovaries on the internet...

Gray Matter said...

Aw Maaaan, and this little piggy got the plague? That sucks. So sorry.

I was laughing about closing your comments because I just deleted a post (that I happened to really have liked) because every day I would get a comment in KOREAN. And NOT from the same person.

I wanted to bring it to the nail salon to find out what they said, but I was terrified it would be filthy.

Feel better soon!

Fragrant Liar said...

Thatsalottastinkin words! Sorry about your ovary. Stabbing from the inside is really yucky.

Ew, btw, on the moose head.
