The Flu

So you may be wondering why I haven't posted anything in three days. It's not because I have lost interest, it's because I have the flu. The kind of flu I've never had before, one where you can't get out of bed, your nerve endings all over your body are sensitive and there is a headache that will not go away, all along with the usual hacking cough and nose blowing. Sunday I barely got out of bed, Monday I barely got off the couch and yesterday I made it into work and had rehearsal for a show, which I am now paying for by feeling like I did on Monday. I need to go into work though because I do not get sick time and we need the money. But I am not going to be affective... this sucks.  Other than being sick  I did really well with food. I had only four oreo cookies at work yesterday and considering  how I normally crave sweets when I'm sick, I consider that an accomplishment. I've been having a lot of soup, but what I really want right now is something hard to chew, my teeth ALL hurt! I feel like I'm teething! Egads! So, I have decided to extend my "week" long experiment to accommodate my sickness. It will not start up again until I feel better. I will keep you updated...
