Our planned drive to Atlantic City for dinner with friends to celebrate the birthday of the first friend in our group to turn 30 (not me!) was a no-go for Terry and me today. I woke up with a stuffy head, a headache and generic achiness. Of course, this was after falling asleep sometime before 10 PM last night and not waking up until after 11 AM this morning. I don’t usually sleep like that, so it’s usually a good sign that I’m fighting something off.
I got up, ate some breakfast, took some DayQuil and Terry gave me some birthday presents. He gave me the rest of my loot after breakfast, at which point the achiness was all gone, but my stomach had started to hurt and I was beginning to feel strange. So, back to bed for a couple of hours and then I woke up feeling even worse than when I laid down. Now, here I am, as weak as a newborn kitten, sucking down soup and crackers and feeling like my mind and my body are not quite connected.
Ugh! Not the greatest way to spend a birthday, but I had a good day yesterday and I’ll see if I have the energy to make up for it tomorrow. In the meantime, at least I have two new video games to play. Well, Dance Dance Revolution will have to wait until I feel better (no dancing around for me right now!), but Haunted Mansion is a good one for sitting on one’s behind. 😉
