Oh! More on the marine...

Day two of being around the sick marine at work *swoons*

Today yeilded some great moments. Like Boss' "Still feeling sick?" and his reply of "Ughhhh! It's okay, I've come to terms with the fact that I'm dying. And my nose is soooo stuffed up."
Guhhhhh!
Or him feeling really sick but not being sure if he had a fever. Boss waved him over. So he walked over to my boss (sitting at a table), bent over a little, and had my boss feel his forehead. It was such a sweet and silent display. Boss felt sick marine's head for quite a long few moments, then felt his own, and declared he didn't think it was a fever. To which marine lad said it didn't matter since he was sweating and shivering and couldn't get warm anyway. Awwwww! Some coughing, less sniffling, and no sneezing. But DAMN cute! (At least no sneezes out of him. I had a horrible morning, however, and spent at least ten minutes in the bathroom trying not to sneeze too much... growl. Hate mornings like that! *rubs at nose*)

I can't do much more than look sympathetic and say "aww, I'm sorry", though. I know I'd blush profusely if I tried to say something. And he clearly dislikes being sick and having us all around him discussing it (he keeps going down to his rooms to sleep, which is good). But every so often between trips out and naps he hangs around near where I'm usually working. There was a debate about the size of pills to swallow nowadays (which normally would be something I would have much to say about, but I just couldn't say anything... guhhhh...) when he was forced by Boss to take a vitamin C pill or two.
Oh, and then there was the phone. He asked to use the phone and when he handed it back, Boss wiped it down with anticeptic. LMAO! "Ohhhh, you're hurting me here!" the cute marine laughed. To which Boss replied, "This is how germs spread. I don't want to get sick! Go play with the doggies. They can't catch anything from you" Marine did indeed go snuggle with the dogs on the couch.

Guhhhhh. Was DEFINITELY nice to watch. Even if I look stupid for being so silent (not that he and I talked much when we were alone in the house together anyway when I was dog sitting). And it's better than blurting out something like "Aww, I'm sorry you're sick. But you look dead sexy like this." Because he does. Oohhh yummy sick marine... giving me such lovely plot bunny ideas. Even though I have absolutely NO sexual thoughts towards boss what-so-ever, the whole forehead-feeling thing was SO adorable to watch (in a father-son sort of way- though they're not related, Marine's parents are very close friends of my Boss & his wife)

Anyhoo... yeah. Thought I'd share the cute again :-)

Almost done

Almost done with dentist trips. Have two more appointments in May now, but one's just a cleaning. So, yay! Almost done! The whole left half of my face is still numb, but it's starting to slowly wear off. Feels different from usual... but at least it's done for now.

My back is still killing me. Gah, I have the health of a fifty year old! LOL

Went to IKEA with boss today. I went over the weekend as well- we bought a Poang chair and footstool for the basement. It's very comfy. Today boss didn't buy anything, but we got some estimates on a cabinet we can use to store more files and things. It's a customizable sort of thing, which I didn't even know Ikea did! It's expensive (you buy the fronts of the drawers separately from the insides and separately from the base) but it fits in the small space we want so that's good.

We're supposed to get 5-8 inches of snow tonight. YAY! Which means no work tomorrow (which is good for my sleep and bad considering I paid $950 at the dentist's today!) But I looooooooooove snow. I'm planning to go snow!drabble crazy tomorrow if it snows. I've been working on one of my weissfics last night & today. I'd love to finish it, but we'll see :-) Fun fun.

Numbness wearing off... gah... sister needs phone line. Am going now.
