I am officially FED UP with this lingering, on again off again disease. Why can't I just get really sick for a couple of days like normal people, and then be done with it? Why do I have to be sort of sick but not sick enough to take off work with interspersed periods of feeling just fine, for weeks on end? Okay, this particular bout has lasted just about one week. But it seems like every day for the past week I have had at least one minute of feeling TOTALLY FINE and thinking "oh! it's over!" and then a few hours later I am totally wrecked again. This sucks.
I have been eating all this healthy stuff and drinking lots of water and taking my damn vitamin every day. And I am not being rewarded for my troubles. I've even been "taking it easy" for the most part (except for the couple of times when I thought I was TOTALLY FINE, and brunch yesterday, which was non-negotiable) but still. It lingers. Today I went and bought cough medicine with extra congestion relief power so hopefully I can knock it out of the park by Wednesday for gym time.
This morning I was watching a little bit of a Body By Jake infomercial and they showed this awesome machine that I cannot wait to do. It's the one where you sit and put your arms against the two padded bars by your head and then you twist. Man, that looks great, and I can already tell how nice it is going to feel for my poor aching back.
Yes, you're right, I would probably recover a lot faster from these lung related things if I would stop smoking. I hear ya.
Yesterday's brunch, despite the fact that I felt more or less like hell for most of it, went really smoothly. So smoothly, in fact, that we were pretty sure it was one of our slower brunches because we never really felt the pain and we had plenty of sitting down time and no real super slammed time. But, we cracked the magical $700 anyway. Woohoo! I guess it is a testament to our experience and work ethic. The sweet potato bread pudding with praline topping came out SO GOOD. I wanted to eat up a big bowl of it, but I didn't. Instead I ate a smallish bowl of the "spam" with tomatoes on toast, which was actually pretty tasty despite being a scary reddish pink color. People who were brave enough to try it really liked it.
After the brunch I ordered a greek pizza and then napped for most of the rest of the day. Got up and watched Cold Case. I just can't really get into this show, even though it is one of my sister's favorites. There is just too much back and forth and back and forth for me. It's like they keep running around in circles for 45 minutes. I prefer the Law and Orders where there is a more linear progression through the suspects.
Today I go to work and then the Tranny Roadshow!, then I have to see Rebby off for her week long tour with the trannies. She is working on her documentary and is going to travel with them and tape their shows. Cool!
