Sick once more

Filed under: China, Chinese, Shijiazhuang — andrewstrauss @ 5:28 am

As the temperature got really hot, I got sick once more. I have been sick for over a week now, and just started taking antibiotics. I may slow down on posts for a little bit until I beat this cold. I have literally been doing nothing but sitting in bed and watching DVDs (Good thing I have hundreds of pirated $1 Chinese DVDs to keep me company :) ).

See you all when I get well…

    Andrew, I got sick when I returned to Hawaii from China so I gargled with a lot of hawaiian salt water. Im well now, hope you are too. love Aunty Terry

    P.S. The comments are soooo funny Jerry suggesting a 20 DVD cold and you responding with way past 100 DVD cold. Tickling my funny bone. Do you have any recommendations for movies?

  5. Andrew Strauss Says:

    Terry….glad you’re well now…..i, unfortunately am not :( . As far as DVD suggestions go, I am currently in love with the entourage series, but have a feeling that you wouldn’t like it

    Andrew, I’ve often thught that viruses pack tiny little backpacks so that they could get around. But it sounds as if the one that got to you packed a suitcase. No matter what the size of the carrion, chicken soup helps. Hope you feeel better, soon. Much love, Grammy

    hey! I was so jealous of all your dvd’s i decided to try to buy some while in mexico….bad idea… i couldn’t open them till i got home cause I was in a hurry..and turns out they were cds!!! oh wow… i got fooled… the titles are in spanish and are sometimes really funny. is it like that there? for example.. the movie the break up is called living with the ex. I miss you greatly. I thought of you while i was playing craps…when people were impressed with how well i knew how to play the game…its cause i had a good teacher ;)

    Rachel…..no….I don’t have those problems here. They are all DVDs, 98% have English and Chinese, and if they don’t are returnable. I am jealous about Vegas….sounds like it was a blast having everyone there.
