This week’s This or That, from Christine:
1. CandyLand or Chutes and Ladders? I didn’t own either one as a kid, but I preferred to play Chutes & Ladders.

Monday Mission 2.33
PromoGuy’s Monday Mission, actually on a Monday. Try not to faint from the shock.
1. Many children have blankets, or a favorite nubby stuffed animal that they like to keep near them for security. Do you recall what you had for your “security blanket” as a child? When did you finally give it up? What brought that about? I was a stuffed animal, teddy bear, doll kind of kid. I had a Dressy Betsy – you could tie her shoes, button her clothes, and so forth. It was so cool. I got really sick one time and she was the casualty victim of it. I don’t remember if I got sick on her (ewwww) or if it was just a matter of I had an illness and she didn’t survive the washing machine. I still have one of my childhood teddy bears – I remember when he lost his nose. My Mom never could get a new one to stick on, so he still doesn’t have one. And half of his felt eye is missing. He’s well loved.
Pink Pajama Pants…
My ears are still crackly whenever I swallow. My temperature hasn’t dropped much yet, even after a few doses of the Tylenol Cold that my Mom went to the store to pick up for me. The chicken broth she brought me back from the store has helped some too – nothing quite like that warm soothing feeling. Wearing my Media Whore t-shirt and my pink polka dot satin pajama pants. Remember those hair photos I promised? Yeah, not taking them until I can actually breathe out my nose again. Which I can sort of do now thanks to the medicine, now it just keeps running. And the irony? I got spam e-mail for a free 7-day sample of Allegra. Ha! Too late for that now!
There has been one good perk to this. I finally got to finish reading the 4th Harry Potter book, the Goblet of Fire. Matter of fact, I read over half of it in two days. Good book. If you haven’t read the series, do it. I was completely caught off guard by the twists and turns – the type of story that makes me truly happy. Now I’ll have to see if Jason will let me read his copy of “The Hobbit” and the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. First I’m going to read the books I borrowed from Kymberlie. At the rate I’m going, those should be fast!
Slow and Sluggish…
Stuffy nose. Temp 100.3. Cough. Congestion. Sore throat. Achy all over. If anyone saw the Mack truck that hit me, could you let me know if you got the license plate number? Meanwhile, I’m going back to bed.
You Said it is How Big?
A new mathematical formula, that estimates penis size, has been developed for people who have not yet seen the real thing in the flesh. Anyone willing to tell me just how accurate this thing really is? [via Jason]
