I’m a Mouthy Housewife with a Cold

January 20th, 2012

I got hit hard by Austin’s cedar allergies yesterday, so today I look like whatever it is we’re now saying instead of “Nick Nolte’s mugshot.” (“Dog the Bounty Hunter’s prom photo”?)

But while I have no choice but to just sit here with a box of tissues and a metric ton of Benadryl coursing through my veins, you have something else you can do. And that’s click over to The Mouthy Housewives where today I’m spilling all of my deep dark secrets. Even the one about my real celebrity crush—it’s not who you think it is. JUST CLICK HERE.

If you need me in the meantime, I’ll be under the blankets petting my Breathe-Right nasal strip and sniffling.

    The cedar is wicked awful. I went out of town for the weekend, and when we landed back in Austin and the plane door opened, I started sneezing immediately.

    Hope you feel better by 8pm and no later!

    Feel better soon!!

    Feel better soon, Wendi! And be sure to let your kids post photos of “Mommy on Drugs” to instagram. So we can sympathize, of course…

    I have yet to find the perfect anti-cedar cocktail and my pharmacy had cut me off. I guess with my bloodshot eyes, raspy voice, and rapid snort they figure I’m cooking meth in my bathtub. Since I need a distraction, I’ll pop on over!

    :( Sorry you feel bad! Surely that metric ton of medicine will click in soon. On my way to TMHW page!

    Poor thing. Feel better, or at least make sure you get the good kind of cold drugs that give you the awesome dreams.

    Oh shoot, we’re not saying “Nick Nolte’s mugshot” anymore? I’m always so behind. Feel better, honey, clicking over to read you on MH.

    Sounds like you need a nice, long relaxing bath–in a tub of tequila.

    Hang in there!

    The cedar is on steroids this year. Last year zyrtec d was my miracle drug. This year? I think i got the placebos.

    Are we now saying “Austin’s cedar allergies” instead of “6 boxes of Chardonnay”?

  • 12. Rikki  |  January 22nd, 2012 at 9:24 am

    Hope you get better soon!

    Meanwhile, you could say you look like your little friend the puffer fish. On a bad day.

    All better now?

    You kind of make it sound like petting Breathe-Right nasal strips is only for special occasions…

  • 14. Tonya  |  January 23rd, 2012 at 3:16 pm

    I think now it’s: Taylor from RHBH after a visit to her plastic surgeon
    OR
    Lindsey Lohan…anytime.

    Yet another reason you should move to the Bay Area. No cedar! And no mosquitos!

    But also…no LTHS Football. I’m sorry, Wendi.

    We do have non-competitive gypsy four-square. I’m not sure what that is.

    I’m looking a bit Nolte-esque myself these days. Cedar’s a bitch.

  • 17. Invader_Stu  |  January 24th, 2012 at 7:43 am

    Hope you feel better soon.

  • 18. Alexandra  |  January 24th, 2012 at 10:46 am

    Ugh.

    Me and you both.

    But I won’t go into detail with the contents of my sinuses here..

    but, yeah, worst congestion every.

    Nightmare. I feel for you. I’m going to pop over to the Housewives and see who your crush is.

    Hoping you’re feeling better soon!!

    I do fine this time of year, but the spring is awful for me. All the blooming plants put me in bed for weeks.
