If I ever catch the bastard who gave me this cold, I'll kick him in the shins.  Sunday my head felt like it was going to explode.  Yesterday my nose was stuffed up and I was talking funny.  This isn't pleasant.  Would you like to know what I did to cheer myself up?

 I made cookies!  Oatmeal to be exact.  My Mom makes these for me every Christmas.  This was my first cookie-making attempt.  I did pretty good, if I do say so myself.  I don't plan on eating all of these.

Today is Valentine's Day!  Happy Valentine's Day to the love of my life, Cara!

Excuse me while I blow my nose.
