Sickness

Since I missed out on the Great Xmas Flu '06, I've been hoping that my turn would finally come around. And voila, yesterday afternoon at around 4:00, my wish was granted. I don't know if it was just a virus, or botulism, or what but wow. I just ate two pieces of toast - my first solid food in over twenty-four hours. It was the best toast ever. All this in addition to running the hostel.

I've been feeling better today, luckily, since this week is turning out to be really busy.

I remember back when I was about twelve and had been throwing up earlier that day. I stayed home from school and A Few Good Men was on TV. I convinced Mom to let me have Cocoa Puffs because I was feeling better. Guess what happened. I have been paranoid about eating anything after being sick since then. Coincidentally, A Few Good Men was on this morning, too. I took that to be an omen.

Heartfelt thanks to Travis, who kept me in good supply of Gatorade, water, ginger ale, Pepto-Bismol, Tums, warm towels, company, naps, and ginger tea. Yaaay.

Now it's time to vacuum. Too fun!
