how sick do dogs really get?

so the blessings of the mish have truely worn off. i haven't been this sick in forever. i went to the beach with some friends this weekend and got a fever and all achy. shoot me. i'm on 5x the suggested dosage of ibuprophen and so far seems to be taking no effect. i was supposed to teach relief society today but luckily i have an amazing mother and she took on the load with only 6 hours notice. i don't mean 6 hours in which she could have studied and prepared. i mean i told her at 2 a.m. and church starts at 8 a.m. i would like to say in my defence however that i tried to tell her earlier that i really couldn't do it, but she likes to pretend like i'm talking to myself. so i'm taking some of my down time to get caught up on some blog reading. mindi, your last blog about motherhood was beautiful. it makes me very baby hungry. but then i remember last night and the 6 billion children that were running around like maniacs, making eachother cry and listening to music from "high school musical" and then i think i can wait a little before i take on all of that. but they are so much fun and to be honest, this family makes em so cute, i'm freaked out that my kids aren't going to be as cute. silly, i know because i'm so dang cute, but it could happen. ashley, i finally got to the blog explaining why it was that you had 10 hours of community service. that's funny. oh and i just read meagans blog about the toes. yes, it's true that some people call my toes flinstone feet. it's because of their stumpy, pudgyness but ya know it fits me quite well and i think they're beautiful. well, as we all know, the other day was st. patricks day. mom has this super cute green stripped polo that i really wanted to wear for the occation. mom has a tendancy to be kind of stingy with her clothes. so as i left the house that day to go to the beach, i wore a different shirt and hid the polo in my bag and changed later. how dumb is that. i felt like a 10 year old again. it was great. my head is about explode onto the computer screne so i'm out. take it easy and i'll blog at ya when i get back from the philippines.
