Sick Day

UGH. I feel worse than I think I ever, ever have before.  Spent 2am-7am alternately lying down on my bathroom floor, puking, and .... Almost like clockwork every half hour or so there would be drama, then calm, then repeat. I have NEVER IN MY LIFE thrown up so many times.  At first I tried to brush my teeth each time, but it got to be a hassle and it was easier to just lay back down. 

I had hoped that once my system had nothing left in it the symptoms would go away. Not so much.  This is worse than the Salmonella, I'm telling you.  I have no idea what it is; possibly food poisoing, possibly the worst virus of all time, possibly I'm pregnant.

HA! Ok. Not possibly I'm pregnant. 

The bad news is that I'm afraid to use the bathroom downstairs because it's clogged up before and I'm not trying to have that happen again. But there's no TV upstairs...so everytime I need to get to the bathroom I've got to climb the stairs, resulting in more ill feelings in my stomach.

The good news is that I get to stay at home and watch tennis all day. Yay! Also, because I'm watching tennis online, I can transport my entertainment up to bed if need be, thus alleviating some of the effort between homebase and bathroom.  (Possible bad news, unsure if anyone good is playing; will have to check schedule.)

Ok. This trauma has now been recorded for posterity. Resume fetal position.

yikes! I'm sorry. I hope you had a major recovery today watching tennis. Or at least a doctor with a diagnosis or good drugs?!

Am too stubborn to go to doctor on the first day of being sick :) Recovered on the couch, unfortunately unable to watch tennis, but just as well since all I really needed was sleep. If today isn't much of an improvement will DEFINITELY seek drugs from the doctor!
