Well, as you might have guessed, especially if you are more pragmatic than I am, I crashed and burned yesterday. I was humming along just fine for most of the morning, with the occasional cough or stuffy nose. By the time I got home and settled in to the computer to do my gym research, I was sliding slowly downhill in terms of the feeling "active" department. By the time 4:15 rolled around, I was hacking and feeling pretty miserable. So I cancelled my gym date, made myself a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and settled in to the couch to watch my new netflix The Work Of Mark Romanek. He's the video director who did "Closer" and "The Perfect Drug", as well as a bunch of other cool stuff like "Scream" with Janet and Michael Jackson(remember that one? they are on a minimalist black and white spaceship), Jay-Z's "99 Problems", and Madonna's "Bedtime Story", which is the one with the whirling dervishes in it. He also made the video for Johnny Cash's cover of "Hurt", which I had never seen. Holy shit. I had to watch it three times in order to hear Mark's commentary and commentary by Trent, and it made me dissolve into a pool of tears each time. Wow.
I ended up crawling into bed around 9pm. I feel much better today(again) but I am going to take it easy. After work I have to do some research to try to figure out a recipe for vegetarian spam. Hee! It's Monty Python's Flying Brunch this weekend!
Hopefully later on tonight I will feel up to going to see the Beat photos with Juli.
I think I should be fine for that since it shouldn't involve lots of strenuous activity.
The sun is shining again today! And in just a couple of days we'll be springing forward, which means the sun will be shining BEFORE I get out of bed. I cannot wait for that to happen!
