S8 has a touch of the flu, according to his doctor. Not H1N1, thankfully, but just the garden variety. She said he'll likely be out of school for most if not all this week. S8, for his part, was still wanting to go to his cub scout den meeting, but I said no. I'm the assistant den leader now, but I had already told the leader and the other parents I was going to be absent because of this. Spent a fortune on Rx's, but now I'm ready for whatever I need to help S8 get over this bug. Or so I hope.
Queen Amidala, eh? That'd be cute with the kabuki makeup too. (Hmmm. I guess I too am becoming a SW fanboy or something because while I was in that getup I couldn't help myself and began speaking in that stilted manner of Ewen McGreggor /Alec Guiness. Kept referring to S8 and S4 as "my troops". LOL.)
