I’ll Be Back …

… as soon as I recover from this terrible cold.

Don’t worry about me. I have excellent medical care.

One of my favorite doctors is Dr. Jennifer Chaitman from Veterinary Internal Medicine and Allergy Specialists.

Dr. Jennifer is as sweet as she looks. (I don't know who that dog is.)

If she were my doctor, she’d pet me and uncurl my tail and say how cute I was. That’s what she does to Henry the dog. He seems to like it! And get this … I’ve read that Dr. Jennifer was a receptionist at Andy Warhol’s Factory when she was in high school. I’ve been too shy to ask her about it, but I wouldn’t be surprised if she’s whispered all the best stories into Henry’s floppy ears. He’s the kind of dog you confide in.

  6. Here’s to a speedy recovery. How crap to be sick. Hopefully not too delirious to lie in bed with a book!xoxo

  11. Get well soon madame. Big hugs to you! And when you are well, I can’t wait to hear about your vet and if she got to see Edie and Nico and Lou when she worked for Andy. Bisous ! xoxoxoxoox

  17. Take care of yourself sweetie. Have you tried echinacea? I find it works best if taken at the beginning of the cold…others, lots of hot lemon water, chicken soup and my husband swears by Zicam.

    Law and Order is my TV show of choice when ill too! There is no sound as soothing as the “dum dum” of the show. Or whatever sound it is.

    Big hugs,

    Christine

  19. Hope you feel better soon. Ironically, my anit-spam word was Kittens (before I had to reload).

  20. I’m so sorry you’re sick – take good care of yourself and rest up. Lots of soup and bad television can be a wonder cure!
