Gut Wrenching Times

Today was a gut wrenching nightmare of vomiting in just about anything that I could find that was close, and I think I used a roll of toilette paper while I was at it. Both ends spewing forth my insides at the most inconvenient of times.



I got up early so that he could leave to go home and get a shower and head to work. I went back to sleep for a bit and then got up again. I took some of my echinacea/goldenseal drops and 2 zinc tablets. Add water and then head for the shower. About 15 to 20 minutes later, my gut was being spewed forth. For the next 4 to 5 hours, I had some seriously upsetting episodes. What a way to end a week and start a weekend.

I had a splitting headache for 2.5 days earlier this week, I started coughing and sneezing and couldn't go to training on Thursday. Something that's not normal for me to do. Needless to say, this week has been pretty horrible.

The last time I got sick, well, massively painful cramps, the guy that I was dating was about 5 miles away and told me to take some ibuprofen, hopes I feel better and that he's about to sit down for some beer. Great. Thanks dude. Way to treat a "girlfriend."

This time, someone else thought enough to come all the way out to my house to bring me crackers, chicken noodle soup and Gatorade, and spend a few minutes with me as my body sweat out whatever was happening to me. Wow, cheers to someone who actually cares enough. I suppose my karma is turning around. For all the times that I gave others some TLC, I'm finally getting it. And you know what? It feels good! Even though I still feel like crap.

Peace out for now,
