I wish I could quit coughing. The stupid sneezing as subsided, but now I’ve just been coughing. My throat really hurts from it too. I have cough drops, but I’m not entirely sure they’re helping all that much. My lips are also extremely chapped. It looks like I’m wearing lipstick because they’re so pink/red. It really hurts.

Yesterday, Nikki and I hung out around here. We were just being kind of lazy, I suppose. We watched A Night At the Museum, and then later we watched more of The Stand. We still have about an hour or so of it left to watch. It’s insanely long. We played Rummikub with my grandma and brother too, but that only lasted about three rounds. Then we did some more scrapbooking. I’ve finished about three pages so far. I still have tons of pages I want to do. I’m just feeling a little overwhelmed trying to figure out what I want to do.

I’m not sure what we’re going to do today. We’ll probably just hang out around here again and watch TV. But I swear if I have to hear another thing about Paris Hilton, I’ll scream. I think she’s about the most worthless person on the face of the earth. Why can’t she be more like George Lindemann Jr? He’s a rich heir that collects art and is benefactor to museums. In other words, he actually does something other than show up and have his picture taken. The other night on one of those entertainment shows - ET or something like it - they actually spent about five minutes discussing what Paris Hilton ate while she played poker. Do people seriously care about this sort of stuff?
