Is it time for Ellen yet?

Today marks another day on the couch because of yesterday's events. However, thankfully my dear roomie and friend, K, is sitting right next to me. K has the day off because of Lincoln's birthday- a small gesture that she and all of today's educators deserves! She has been such a doll to me- hooked me up with Naked smoothies, soup, apple sauce, and chai tea. (I swear I am not turning 90 in two months). Not sure if I already told y'all, but I am on a strict diet for the next few days because of my procedures yesterday.

To keep my mind off the food I'd prefer to be eating right now (i.e. carrots and hummus, chips and gauc, a burger- to name a few), I've managed to be productive today when I wasn't dozing off  from the effects of my medication. Although I cleaned out my work inbox and graded some students' papers, the highlight of my day was when K and I made eye contact and simultaneously asked each other, "Is it time for Ellen yet?" How can you not love her and her show? I'd do anything to be able to spend the afternoon in LA as an audience member, especially on a day when phenomenal ladies like Michelle are stopping by.

To all the people who have the ability to spend the afternoon with cool people like Ellen or watch the show from home every single day, let me be the first to share that I am BEYOND jealous. Hook a sister up so that this can become my reality, not just on days when I have to take a sick day!
