Got Dirt (roads)?

I'm sick! I know, you hate that I'm sick and you desperately want to send me flowers or at least a funny card to make me chuckle. That's nice, it really is, and I totally appreciate it but save your money, I'll be ok.

Eventually. But for now I feel like slightly warmed over death.

But I know the heartache of clicking on one of your favorite blogs and seeing the same ol' post that's been there for days (you know who you are) so I will buck up and try and relay a fun sight-seeing trip the Monk and I took this weekend. Guess what we went to see? Waterfalls. Yeah, again only different waterfalls. I asked him if it was a gentle hint that he wanted "golden showers" but he claims no. So, anyway, you know it rains 13 months out of the year here, so we have a lot of water lying around, wishing to jump to it's death from dizzying heights; that's called "thrill seeking water". Yep, lots of water in the Pacific Northwest. This here kamikaze water in the picture to the left (the waterfall's right) is Multnomah Falls. Those little specks of color on the bridge are actual, life-sized people. When the Monk asked why they named it Multnomah all I could come up with is "because Niagara was taken". See I told you I was sick, you really should listen to me.

But it was a fun day and we laughed forever over this one: the Monk was driving my Jeep and out of nowhere he asked "Do they have dirt roads?" and without even thinking I answered "I suppose so" not really knowing what kind of answer was expected. He laughed and said that was a dumb answer and I so no, it was the only answer for his dumb question. I know what he was thinking, about driving the Jeep, wouldn't it be fun to take it off road..........yeah, again sick.

So enjoy your non sick day. If I had any sense I'd take tomorrow off and sleep all day but I adore the extra torture of going to work not feeling well.

Yeah, I'm that sick.
