Oh, Marie,

I can’t believe I let everyone come over yesterday. Dylan’s got the flu now… I’m covered in pizza! Spray Lysol everywhere and scrub down the Nintendo!! I’m so so so sorry…

Really, how stupid can I be? The automatic response to a play date invitation is not an automatic “yes.” Or, in my case, “Are they there yet?”

Um, I should also cancel dinner and the sleep over we planned for tonight.

Update: Just watched Inspector Gadget with the kids… I had a Lean Cuisine, Daphne had a TV dinner, and Logan and Dylan sipped sodas, as they haven’t been able to eat all day. They’re in the bath now and I expect them to go to sleep soon.

Only one more bout of sickness from Dylan this afternoon, so the suppositories must have worked. I had to touch three more bottoms in an intimate way than I would have liked today, but all agree that it was far less unpleasant than continuous vomiting. Roll on 2008!

The second shoe has dropped. Expect one more.
