I feel like poo

Yep, that's right POO.  C left yesterday morning and it's been a crazy week.  First A got really sick.  He got an upper respiratory infection with croup.  After a trip to the ER and alot of rest, he's better.  Guess what?  K's got croup.  Started late last night and he woke up making that horrible coughing sound and had a fever.  Oh, and guess what else?  I'm now sitting here with a sore throat and a bit of a fever myself.  Oh and top it all off, I tried calling C's hotel room a few times and he wasn't there.  No big deal, right?  It was starting at 10 pm his time and he still wasn't there at 2:30 am.  I finally got in touch with him around 3:30 am his time and he'd been out to dinner and then out for drinks.  Is it wrong for me to not like him right now??  Meanwhile, I've got K who is sick, A is screaming "Mom, watch this!" and running full speed while saying "AAAAAAAH!", and H has taken up swearing.  He's used bad language at least 3 times today.  I have no idea why he's decided it's okay to swear, but this last time, I called him out to punish him.  I have no bars of soap in the house, as we use liquid soap, so I decide to give him dish detergent on a spoon and swipe his tongue with it.  He makes a face and swallows.  I am ready to start the lecture when he burps and a bubble comes out.  Yes, I'm serious.  He starts to laugh hysterically and yells for his brother so he can share this amazing news and I am standing there dumbfounded.   I thought that could only happen in cartoons.  My stern discipline was a total failure.  

So now, I'm feeling like poo, dealing with the craziness of my boys and deciding if I should prank call C 3 more times over the next few hours just to wake him up.  Is that wrong??  Should I not do that??  Just the thought of that makes me feel a little bit better.  Mu-wa-ha-ha-ha  (that's my evil laugh)  No, better get these kiddos showered up and wind down for the night.  I'm hoping to get to bed early.
