not again || 01.06.04 at 09:05
Apparently, I'm getting sick again, just like I was getting sick when I was with Lols up in DC. I'm sick and tired of being/getting sick. How can this be? I've been taking vitamins, exercise, working myself to death, I just don't understand it....okay, that's a big fat lie and I know it, but still...
I've begun taking the allergy medication again, because I thought at first it was allergies. Two days later and I'm leaving a trail of snot behind me like a big fat slug after a rainstorm, so I started taking the amoxicillin left over from the last time I didn't think I was really sick (but a doctor's visit with a diagnoses of a sinus infection, upper respiratory infection and a double ear infection told me that I was, in fact, sick). Speaking to Bill this morning, he told me that it sounded like it was more than just my sinuses playing up, I think he told me that yesterday too. So why on earth did I think it would be a grand idea to take my regular spinning class this morning? I felt crappy en route to the gym, crappy when I did my abs, and crappy before I even set foot onto my bike. I guess the first indicator that I wasn't going to make it through the class was when I had to suddenly sit down as soon as we got out of the saddle (dizziness) and then twenty minutes into the class when I thought I was going to puke when we started sprints. Oy Vey!
When will I learn?
Already this morning I've drank enough water to fill a hippopotamus, eaten an orange, drank some coffee, some black forest berry honest tea, taken all my vitamins, and made a cup of immune booster yogi tea. After my director of operations informed me that I absolutely cannot get sick this week due to a new test project we're running in hopes of winning a new account, I've resolved to hit the vitamin sh*ppe at lunch time to pick up 1000mg of vitamin C just in case.
All I really want however, is some tea and sympathy, my hot water bottle and my bed.
