View From the Couch

Well, it's that time of year again! Winter cold and flu season!!! Not what you expected? Yeah, me neither. But when I woke up this morning, life and my throat had other plans.

So I figured I'd use this time to catch up on Netflix, finish my book, write a blog post or two, and spend some quality time with the couch.

I'm not a great napper, so I started my sick day with a couple of mugs of tea and JK Rowling's Casual Vacancy. It's taken me a month to finish it, but I really enjoyed it. Her writing style is very specific, and it's very similar to how she writes in the HP books. But the topics are nothing like the kid friendly stories of Harry Potter. Anyway, point of the story, I liked the book. You might too! 

After finishing the book, I spent a little bit more time than I should have binge watching Making a Murderer. Drew and I were on episode 3, but today I finally turned it off on episode 6. He said he'd catch up and I promised not to watch anymore without him. I'm the worst... Anyone have any other Netflix recommendations for binge watching? I don't think this bug is going anywhere in the next 24 hours, so I better find something quick!

The rest of the day I spent dosing myself with Mucinex and Advil and praying for the sweet release of death. Just kidding! I'll be better soon enough, until then this will be my view:

Maybe tomorrow I'll post something more interesting! Happy almost Friday, y'all!
