If you don’t want to read my whining and complaining for the remainder of this post, I suggest you stop reading now. When I’m sick I turn into a big fat cry baby. Waaaahhhhh. I’ve been feeling pretty icky since Sunday and I spent most of yesterday trying to deny it, although I would like to think that perhaps this sickness is to blame for my lame run yesterday. I always end up with the weirdest symptoms and it always feels like it must be strep throat this time, but I don’t get strep. Ever. It’s a gift or something. I always end up with a sinus infection but I don’t feel sinusy. Just a super bad sore throat and achy and tired. I was going to still try to make it to spin today, but it just wasn’t happening. Instead, I made myself some hot oats, went to the Bux for some hot coffee, chatted with Kara and drank some Emergen-C.
I really wish I had made her take pictures because something else I am super wimpy about is things that taste bad. I mean no one likes bad tasting food/drink/etc, but I make a huge deal about it. I can see why I have so many friends. It took me almost an hour to nurse this thing (which I have refused to try based on smell until this point) and every single time I insisted on plugging my nose. But honestly, if it ends up working, I will continue to drink, plus, repeat as necessary because I do not want to be sick. I do not want to miss work outs or training, and missing work with my job(s) is pretty much impossible. If I can’t find a sub myself I am pretty much SOL and I have to go in anyway and infect all the kiddos with my germie goodness.
I also am not going to let this ruin the fun I’m supposed to have with some free bowling! Hermano got a free pass to Lucky Strike which is pretty much the coolest bowling alley ever. It’s a restaurant and a bar and a bowling alley all in one. Can’t wait! Sorry world, I am that person that does not stay home when I’m sick and completely disregards your right to not be infected by my germs. I refuse to let sickness keep me from living my life!
