I woke up this morning feeling not-so-great. The sore throat seemed a little better, but I had a headache. How much does that suck, to wake up with a headache?? It sucks a real whole super lot, that's how much it sucks.
So Ray offered to cook me some breakfast and I said that the last of our Wellspring sausages sounded good.
What a bad choice that was.
Apparently, they had passed their prime and I spent the whole day praying to the porcelain god, if you know what I mean. (And I think you do.)
In between offerings, I tried to stave off the nausea with a "Real World" marathon on MTV. I don't know if that made things better or worse. It sure didn't make my headache go away. Plus I was too weak/lazy to mute the commercials, which didn't help. Those damn Cat in the Hat Burger King commercials are truly awful. And I could strangle Carrot Top. What an idiot.
I'm feeling a little better right now. I managed to have a few Ritz crackers & water, and things feel OK down there. The calories make me feel a little better, anyway.
Oh yeah, and right in the middle of the worst of it, the floor guys show up for the 3rd coat of polyurethane. Surprise! I had no idea they were coming; I was still waiting for their return phone call. I'm just glad Ray was here to help me deal with them; I was in no shape to confront any aspect of home repair today.
So, I guess it's technically possible that we could paint the bedroom tomorrow night, but I haven't even picked out the color (though I'm leaning towards a burgandy, like Lisa's living room). I'm not sure I'll have the energy, either... though it would be SO nice to be able to move back into that room before we head off for vacation on Wednesday.
OMG, I just realized I've been using capital letters! I *must* be sick!!
