In Sickness & Health ( but mostly sickness )

You know how you get that funny smell late on a Friday, just as your work day is winding up? That odd tinge to everything that you try to ignore because you know what it means. It means you'd better have some Theraflu in the meds cabinet at home, and your weekend is going to suck.

I had just that sensation this past Friday at the appointed hour. I dutifully checked for my Theraflu when I got home and then waited.....

and waited.....

and waited.....

And then I woke up and had to go back to work on Monday. Now normally you would think this shouldn't be a source of irritation, but think about it. I spent the whole weekend preparing for being sick. Taking vitamins, drinking more water and juice than normal (and remembering!) and never changing out of my Hugh Hefner outft.

And still, I have that same sensation, except now I have a sore throat, slight sinus pain and general body aches. Flu maybe? The slow, three week, build up until you are incapacitated type of flu? I guess we'll have to wait and see. Oh joy.

While I Grumble and Groan

You would think I could make time for this. No, really. I get all excited to share some of my ever so profound experiences and what happens? Life happens. Life like the sort you get when you stop thinking about what you ate for breakfast and it's almost midnight only to recall you didn't HAVE breakfast. THAT sort of life.

I have to thank a very dear friend of mine for punting my brain back into geat tonight...or this morning, as the case is. I sorely miss her even though she's never far from my thoughts. Put that together with rediscovering a song from the Donnie Darko soundtrack, and you've got a very teary biscuit.

So much to do, so little space in which to do it. Inside my head, that is....speaking of which, did you realize that drinking the full daily compliment of ten 8 ounce glasses of water can have amazing health benefits? Like....*gasp* improved memory? Who'da thunk it?

I swear, I'll post more details about, well, everything in the last 6 months....yeah, right. I can barely keep up with yesterday. You can all snivel and whine as much as pleases you, but it mostly won't happen, so keep your socks in the drier.
