Thursdays, #167- is it vacation time yet?

[Cataholic]

Hello, I am opening Thursdays this week, with a special notation to raise a rum ladened drink, full of good health, to Slick. Apparently, she is down with pneumomia- probably from not being as good to her as she is to us!

So, drink up- but, I am not your bartender. Richard, please serve everyone. I have a vacation to get ready for.....

RICHARD, as long as they aren't the Pittsburgh Pirates! Watching them is scary enough!

[momoffuzzyfaces]

May I have a cvc please?

Slick, pal, you best get yourself well and back here pronto!!! We miss you!!!

Ladysotherhuman: HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! I hope you are having a great day!!!

Richard, it's great having you back behind the bar!!! Mario tries his best but he is so short, he has trouble seeing over the bar!!! :eek: :D

[finn's mom]

I'll drink a toast to Slick's health! I'll take whatever is being served!

[Karen]

I believe birthday cake is in the offing, though the birthday girl, Lady's Other Human, might not be where she can access Pet Talk.

I have brought a very big cake - vanilla - with buttercream frosting, and we'll make sure to save some for you, LOH!

[moosmom]

Make mine a double! *raises glass* Here's to Slick. May she get to feeling better REAL soon!!

Oh Mario, how about bringing me over a bowl of cherries. I feel like something sweet. ;) I'll share 'em with ya! ;)

[catland]

Here's to you Slick - hope you are better soon.

[gini]

Dear Slick, in another thread ES suggested some tea and rum - and did she mention that you ARE SUPPOSED TO STAY IN BED????

Sweet friend, I hope you are feeling much better.

Now Karen, how are we supposed to "hide" a piece of that cake for LOH?
It will never happen. At least not with this crowd.

Maybe I can replace it when she returns.

To drink? Ah, nothing right now thanks............I am supposed to be working!

[Cinder & Smoke]

Another Round to cheer Poor Sick Slick on to Recovery!!

Maybe we should gather round the Fire and sing a rousing, cheery,
Get Thee Well song ...

THAT idea sounds a bit scarey!
I'll light the fire ...
and try to Hummmmmmm on tune. http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/tongue.gif

Maybe with enough of us "singing" no one will notce how bad we may sound.

Feelin better yet, Slick?
Better get better Quick - before we think of something else to do!

{{{Hugs}}}

[DrKym]

a whiskey and 7 please! Slick I hope you will be well and hale soon! I brought the birthday balloons so everyone can find the bar................. :D

[slick]

Hi folks....this won't be for long. I can only stay up for about 10 min, then my body tells me to go back to bed. I would not wish this on my worst enemy. 102.6 temperature, can't eat, supposed to take these gigantic horse pills but can't have them on an empty stomach. Tried that this morning and lost it. So if I can't keep anything down how am I supposed to take this antibiotics? Oh yes, and did I mention these pills are $7 each???? :eek:

Richard, I thought about you all day yesterday as I was stuck in the ER from 2:30 to midnight. After the 7pm change of shift, there was only 1 doctor and 5 nurses to handle 15 treatment rooms. I do so admire all of them. They have to put up with a load of SH** and I kept wondering how they could practice so much patience. The good thing about our health care system, is that all the treatment I got yesterday didn't cost me a thing. The down side, is that our blessed government puts health care workers behind everyone else. :rolleyes:

Anyway they pumped me with two bags of IV fluids and 1 bag of antibiotics.
Long story short, if I still can't keep anything down tomorrow, I'm heading back to the ER (this time to a major hospital only 5 min. from home) I may have to be admitted until I can eat.

So, I'll just grab a glass of ice water and head back to bed. Cheers everyone.

[moosmom]

Slick,

Thanks for checking in. I do hope you feel better soon and are able to keep down your food and meds.

(((((HUGS))))))))

[momoffuzzyfaces]

Gosh, slick I'm glad you checked in but sure wish you felt better. Lots of prayers on the way sweetie. All the cats have their paws crossed that you feel lots better after a night of rest. (we HOPE you are resting anyway)

(((HUGS))) from me and the fuzzies! oh, and Mario too!

[gini]

Ice water? Well, that is a first here at Thursdays!

Slick, I will be saying some prayers for you that the antibiotics you received through an IV will kick in - and help you feel better.

Take good care of yourself dear friend.

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

My goodness, Slick! I had no idea you even had a cold! Gosh, I sure hope the fluids and antibiotics do their thing. I hate the thought of you stuck in a hospital bed. :( Sure hope you get better real quick!

Gosh, I'll just grab a coke while I'm in the fridge getting ice for Slick's water. Then I'll grab a good book and sit by the bed and read to her for awhile. Hmmm...anybody know what kind of stories Slick likes?

Once upon a time there was a silly little monkey named Mario......

[Corinna]

Slick hope your feeling a bit better today . Gosh at $7 a pill you had better keep it down. will be thinking of you all day ,I must be ill to I volenteered to come in to work . well got a truck coming in on Monday so need to bust freight out on to the sale floor. After being off for a week I guess I'm feeling guilty.
Get better Slick.
How about a nice glass of OJ for me and my freind Slick ?
Ps I'm still waiting 4days for the dsl guy. having on and off problems getting tired of them ,but less irratating than waiting for the srvice guy. GRRRRRRR
(how about reading Little black Sambo) :D :D :D sorry Richard couldn't resist (shaking head muttering I'm so bad so so bad

[Logan]

Happy Thursday, everyone. My dear, Vickie, I hope that today has gotten better for you. I hate that one of us can't be with you to make sure you get what you need (even if it is just ice water).

Cheers to Slick, and Happy Thursday to everyone else. I'll take whatever the bartender is serving as long as it doesn't have coconut or dark liquor.

I am able to access PT! I've just been busy on vaca chasing two munchkins around. Thanks for the cake Karen, it's just as good as my birthday brownie. Yum!! :D

Hey, Gini where did you hide that replacement piece of cake, I'm still hungry for more! Somebody give me something good and strong to drink. Maybe something to go with the Pirate theme that's going on!

How about Captain Morgans :D I don't know if he is a pirate but it does the trick for me ;) lol

[gini]

Ho Ho Ho - and a bottle of rum for the Tum Tum Tum..........................

See it even comes with a patch for your eye!

Your cake - did I say I would save some cake for you? - did I really - hmmm,
now where did I put it?............. :eek: ;)

[shais_mom]

well, I don't post here often but I thought I'd just jump in and wish Slick well -
In honor of it only being 2 weeks before I'm in CA-LI-FORNIIIAA- I'll take a Mojito!

[momoffuzzyfaces]

Your cake - did I say I would save some cake for you? - did I really - hmmm,

I was getting ice cream out of the freezer for a root beer float and found this cake hiding in there.

Could this be the cake you are seeking? :D It looks yummy!!! :D

[lbaker]

I don't think "Talk Like a Pirate Day" is until September but what the hey :p Just a few minutes ago spoke with Slick and had to hang up before she and I started laughing too hard for her health :D Leaving at 4 am tomorrow to drive to the coast to find a room for the night and meet up with Johanna, her sister and Jonah for Sunday brunch/lunch. What fun! Right before Slick called I had just hung up with Joh. This is soooo great! It's almost 9 pm for me right now so have to go but dang you guys!! Party on!! Will try to find an internet connection somewhere to check in over the weekend, but if some hot surfer dudes distract us I'm sure you will understand :eek: :o ;)

[gini]

Somewhere Shais_Mom asked for a rum drink - well you mention rum and off I go.................

Laurie, have a great time in Cape May. It has to be one of the most wonderful spots in the world and that ferry ride is to die for!!!

Slick, we miss you here at the bar - we could manage some more ice water for you if you are up for it. But I am hoping you are still resting and getting better by the minute.

Have a great weekend everyone!

Moff - glad you found that cake - I was pretty sure I ate the last piece - and I was worried! :D :D

[shais_mom]

I just pulled a cake from the oven for a family reunion tomorrow -
not sure how good it will be tho - might go in the garbage at the end of the day -
It's a cinnamon swirl cake but I had no icing so I just dumped a bag of white chocolate chips on it and let them melt and spread them around.
we'll see -
hmmmm
how about another Mojito?
