So I'm still sick. I don't think it's a cold. It's much worse than that. I'm pretty sure it's the flu (little-to-no appetite, body aches, congestion, nausea, stomach cramps, etc). Anyway, I went to the store yesterday and bought several cans of Chicken Noodle soup. An American classic remedy for illness with its healthy chicken and (sparse) veggies and lots of brothy liquid to make sure you get plenty of fluids and stay hydrated. Well, it's crap. It tastes like crap. The noodles are all wirey thin and there's corn in it. Who puts corn in chicken noodle soup? What I wouldn't give for a bowl of
Campbell's right now. "mm, mm, good." Ah, childhood....
In other news, being in England has given me two favorite new comedians: Dave Mitchell and Russell Howard. As I eat my crappy soup I am searching for some Russell Howard clips on YouTube for a laugh. He is so funny! (As is David Mitchell, so i'll look for clips of him too, but am not including them as I haven't yet.) Here's some clips from YouTube. Enjoy.
Part 1 of 2 Part 2 of 2 On "Mock the Week" (A great TV show that introduced me to both comedians.)
Enjoy!
