Julien is sick with a stomach bug, fever and chills. He’s currently wrapped up in our thickest comforter and moaning the loss of his long-awaited weekend. Lila is teething. At least, we suspect she is teething (We want to look at her gums, but each time we open her mouth she sticks out her tongue). She drools all over the place, she babbles nonstop, she chews at her fists with a vengeance.
The weekends are supposed to be my days-off, but given the circumstances and the rainy weather outside, it seems that I have to put off my several-hours-of-feeling-like-my-old-self till next weekend. So here I am in the kitchen, with Conan O’Brien’s last ever episode of the Tonight Show playing in the background (I love you Conan. And I hate you Jay Leno), eating leftover cake from last Thursday. Damn. I’m so worried when the people I love are sick or uncomfortable. I wish I could make things better.
Currently listening to:

Teething already? Hope Julien is better. It’s cool that this late night shows can be seen in France. I tried to watch Conan but it was off my shift and time to sleep. Anyway, everything will be better. Hopefully, soon. Good thing you are well enough to look out for them.
