That's actually a family joke... Bean and I are, a-hem, somewhat less graceful than we would like to be. This started when Bean was very young - younger than two. You'd hear a crash and run into her room and she would have just dropped a stack of plastic dishes or something, so she started yelling, "I'm OK" every time there was a loud noise. The first time I flew with her she was 18 months old or so and the plane made a loud noise. She hollered. "I'm OK" and the passengers in the rows around us laughed.
Of course, I am a potty mouth. So when I drop something it's "Fuck! I'm OK!"
Anyway... I'm OK. I'm still a little shaky, but my temperature is back to normal and I'm back at work. The Dream Engineer is out right now picking up Tomato Bisque from the Best Bookstore/Cafe ever, and all is right with the world.
You know how I joke about "accidentally" ordering yarn? Well, it sort of caught up with me!
I was awake for a total of about 3 hours yesterday. Long enough to periodically refill my orange juice, take more NyQuil and check my email while it took effect. According to the emails that awaited me this morning, I also ordered a knitting book from Amazon and some yarn from The Loopy Ewe.
I have no memory of this.
I remember emailing back and forth with Sally, and I managed to schedule a training class with my boss at my other job (and even managed to put it in my planner) but otherwise? All blank. If I talked to you (or sent you a senseless email) yesterday I'm sorry... apparently my Id was more active than the rest of me!
Anyway, my swaps are firmly underway! I discovered that my dishcloth swap pal can not get a certain kind of inexpensive yarn that I can get here for cheap. I am thinking that she needs a big ol' box of it along with her other goodies!!
Also, school starts for me on Thursday!! Hoo-Ray!!!

And I thought of your blog. Rest up. Flu blackouts just suck.
I am cracking up at your post today... Tee hee hee. I'm Ok!!!! ;) Today you are ok... yesterday... LOL who knows. Specially if you can't recall ;)
I am so sorry you were so sick, and happy to hear you're better. I'm not quite as sorry about the online ordering incident because it made me laugh. really. hard.
You've had a rough time! I am so glad you're getting better. I too am less than graceful and end up saying don't worry or I'm OK whenever I'm around a loud noise!
Hmmm...accidental ordering? That is funny!
Ahem...
speaking of ungraceful, yesterday at work I was reaching down to pick up something off the floor and just..fell over. Amid the gales of laughter, I decided the better part of valor was to sit down in a rolling chair and attempt to pick up that object. Result? I fell out of the chair which went shooting across the room. but I'm OK... yep Im just FINE.
