Why am I posting on a Saturday? I don't really know. Got nothing to say. I am bored out of my freakin' mind. My son has been sick for a couple days (vomiting, diarrhea, and now a fever) and I'm stuck at home taking care of him. I hate being cooped up in the house. Spousehole did a charity walk-thingy today and went out to lunch with a bunch of people, while I cleaned up diarrhea and vomit messes. And he can't understand why I just want to get the heck out of Dodge for awhile. Besides, he's playing Halo now and can't be bothered to watch the kids. Joy.
I think I'm restless because I've been incredibly horny and can't do anything about it. I have had one child or other in my presence constantly for a couple days - and I mean 24/7. I haven't had actual sex for almost a month, but hopefully that will change soon. PiC's schedule and mine just don't really match up now that school has started again. And there's someone else who is particularly fascinating to me right now that I would really love to hook up with (you know who you are), but distance is a significant issue. This all adds up to one very frustrated Bunny. Such is life.
The MSU-Notre Dame game will be on soon. Perhaps that will distract me for a while. That is, if the children will relinquish the television. Maybe if I cry the little tyrants will throw me a bone. Or maybe I'll sneak upstairs and reconnect the cable to the upstairs TV. Shhh - don't tell my husband!
Why would he disconnect the upstairs TV? I don't know. He was mad one day and disconnected it. I never bothered to ask why. His latest control move: he put a program on my computer that powers it down every 30 minutes. So if I'm chatting with you and suddenly disappear, check the clock. If it's the top or bottom of the hour, it's the automatic shutdown. I'll reappear in a minute or two.
Is it a type of Stockholm Syndrome that I've come to kind of like the automatic shutdown every 30 minutes? It reminds me to get up, move the laundry from the washer to dryer, unload the dishwasher, sweep the floors, whatever. (Though even when I was online continuously, I still did these things. It's just now I'm on a schedule.) I feel incredibly rude when I disappear when I'm chatting with someone, however.
Have a great weekend. If the Boy's illness, and thus my captivity, continues I may even be back tomorrow. (BTW, he has an appointment with the after-hours clinic this evening if he isn't feeling better.)

HNT - After the Workout
Since I missed HNT last week, here's my sort-of sports HNT. This is after my workout yesterday, still in the sports bra with my hair wet from sweat. Yucky.

I'm shocked. Shocked, I tell you
Your Score: Pure Nerd
65 % Nerd, 43% Geek, 47% Dork
For The Record:
A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.
A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.
A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.
You scored better than half in Nerd, earning you the title of: Pure Nerd.
The times, they are a-changing. It used to be that being exceptionally smart led to being unpopular, which would ultimately lead to picking up all of the traits and tendences associated with the "dork." No-longer. Being smart isn't as socially crippling as it once was, and even more so as you get older: eventually being a Pure Nerd will likely be replaced with the following label: Purely Successful.
Congratulations!
Thanks Again! -- THE NERD? GEEK? OR DORK? TEST

Arrrggh! It Be Talk Like a Pirate Day!
Go check out this out - it's too funny and very pirate-y!
I had been hoping me pirate name would be having some reference to the illustrious Dread Pirate Roberts, but, alas, it was not to be.
You're the pirate everyone else wants to throw in the ocean -- not to get rid of you, you understand; just to get rid of the smell. Even though you're not always the traditional swaggering gallant, your steadiness and planning make you a fine, reliable pirate. Arr!

I'm on to a new book: Notes on a Scandal by Zoë Heller. It's from 2003, kind of old and already made into a movie. I've not seen the movie, so it's all new to me. Kind of a Mary-Kay LeTourneau situation, as told by a "friend" of the female teacher. Well written so far, but I'm only about 50 pages into it.

TMI Tuesday!!
It's TMI Tuesday! Click the "I kiss and tell" icon to come play with us!!
1. What is one thing your significant other could do to you to rock your world?
Return to being the nice, thoughtful, loving person he was when he was on his meds.
2. Which super power (ability to turn invisible, ability to read people's thoughts, or invulnerability) would you take and why?
Invisibility. You could be a fly on the wall for so many things, I think that would be cool.
3. Would you rather be tied up or tie someone else up? Why?
Being tied up, but it's really closer to a 50/50 proposition for me. I like both, but for me to be tied up means I must really trust the person I am with and I like the idea of trusting someone that much. Also it would force me to submit and focus on my own pleasure, which is something I have trouble doing - I tend to be more concerned about my partner's pleasure. So tie me up, baby!
4. What is your best physical and non physical asset?
Physical: Eyes or breasts, take your pick. Though I have nice feet too. Very nice feet.
Non-physical: Intelligence (she said modestly)
5. If they were naming new Dwarves beyond the seven what would your name be and why?
Horny, of course. Need I elaborate?
Bonus: What's the most embarrassing thing you ever bought?
An enema. (It was for use before a colonoscopy.) Yes, that was more embarrassing for me than any sex toy I've purchased.

Finally, My Boys Are Back!
Three television shows are "can't miss" for me. Everything else I can take or leave, but 24, House and Prison Break are must see TV for this me. The men on these shows are phenomenal. I've had a thing for Kiefer Sutherland from back in his Julia Roberts days. Hugh Laurie is adorable and his character is f-ing brilliant. His looks alone wouldn't hold me, but add in the the brilliant, sarcastic character and I'm hooked.
That leaves Prison Break, the show that fuels my fantasies. Not the storylines - no, the writers did not exactly bring their A game every week last season. Their timeline is seriously screwed up (the weather in Chicago never matches the month it should be if you follow their timeline), people seem to teleport from point A to point B sometimes, but the story is not the reason to watch. The reason to watch is the serious eye candy. Hot men everywhere you look, but two stand out to me. No offense to Dominic Purcell fans, but he doesn't do much for me. He's hot, but his character is dumber than a box of rocks and I don't do dumb. Same with Sucre. Beauty is fleeting, dumb is forever. I just don't do dumb. No, the hotties on this show for me are William Fichtner as Agt. Alex Mahone and Wentworth Miller as Michael Scofield.
The boy first: Wentworth Miller is amazing to look at and his character is intelligent and always tries to do the right thing. The hot Boy Scout. He can give me the blue steel anytime (that refers to his EYES, get your mind out of the gutter). But let's face it, he's a kid. A boy. The real man on the show:
Alex Mahone. That William Fichtner was not nominated for an Emmy is freaking ridiculous. He portrays all this character's layers so well; he's just brilliant. The writers have messed with us a bit (what happened to his drug habit? Hello?) but Fichtner's portrayal never wavers. You can see in Fichtner's face how much the character of Alex loves Pam and Cam and you just want to make it all better for him. Then tear off his clothes and make mad, passionate love to him because William Fichtner is hot, hot, hot, HOT. Holy cow, I need a cold shower just thinking about him. Definitely would not kick him out of bed for eating crackers, no siree. The character is intelligent and so is the actor and that's a necessity for me. Great looks and an incredible body are fine, but if you can't hold up your end of the conversation, it won't work. I'm far more interested in your mind than your body.
And I will therefore greatly miss this season, everyone's favorite Magnificent Bastard, Agent Paul Kellerman. Actor Paul Adelstein is going to be on some Grey's Anatomy spin-off, blah, blah, blah, whatever. All I can do is hope that the spin-off fails dramatically so the Magnificent Bastard can return in triumphant glory to his rightful place on Prison Break (because we all know he didn't really die last season. Right?) I mean, c'mon, the guy was hot even when he was torturing Sarah. (I feel so dirty just saying that, but it's true!) We will miss you Kellerman.
I do look forward to the return of Robert Knepper as everyone's favorite murderous, in-bred, psychopathic pedophiliac , T-Bag. As horrible as this character is, Knepper brings a humanity to him that makes you almost feel sorry for him sometimes. Knepper also keeps playing it straight, even when the storyline strains incredulity with T-Bag's continual escapes and resurrections.
Are you a Prison Break fan? What shows do you like?
