queasy!
i partied a bit too hard this weekend. my friday night and saturday afternoon extra-curricular activites resulted in a 13-hour romp of sweet regurgitated love-making with my toilet. not exactly my proudest moment.
i awoke sunday morning, still reeling from the intoxication, and tried to soothe my agitated insides with a bowl of chicken noodle soup. my stomach was still tossing and turning, and my head was no longer spinning, but pounding on both sides. i couldn’t finish the soup out of feeling like i was going to vomit again, so i put the bowl aside, grabbed a pillow, and plopped down on the couch- praying to God- and tried to get some rest. later on in the day i was able to stomach half a bowl of leftover wild rice with pork sausage; but again, feeling queasy, i wasn’t able to finish. as the day turned into night, i hadn’t moved from my spot on the couch, and felt only slightly better. i gave up around 8pm, and after watching beyonce open up the trl finale on mtv, i went straight to bed.
i still have a head and stomach ache this morning (with an additional sore throat), but i’m pretty sure it’s due to malnourishment. part of me really wants to eat something, but at the same time, i’m not sure if i can get a full meal down the hatch safely, and without it reappearing later on today. i’ve had a couple mugs of green tea, and am pondering a little eggs, toast and orange juice action. if i can gather up the energy and courage to face the 43 degree weather outside and go to the store, then i shall have great success.
i’m set a bit at ease knowing that i’m not the only one going through all this madness right now. my facebook homepage this morning is riddled with friend statuses revealing just how sick practically everyone is now that the weather is starting to turn. i wish us all a very speedy recovery- this queasyness is no joke!
be well, everyone; and take care of yourselves!
