The Icky Cold

So last Monday, I'm feeling great! And that all changed almost in an instant. Tuesday morning I felt horrible and called in sick. Same thing for Wednesday. I thought I was getting better so Thursday I went in with nothing more than a cough which eventually turned into a horrible running nose-congestion nightmare by afternoon. I had Friday off, but had to call in Saturday morning to skip work as well. Finally, today I'm better.

I spent much of the time bundled up in huge fuzzy duck slippers which may grandpa once owned. They are SO warm and cozy and look absolutely silly. I also had on a huge hoody, fuzzy gloves and pink leopard print pajamas. It was a fashion disaster, but it was so warm and helped me alot in getting over the sickies.

On the bright side, I got lots of rest while I was sick. I also lost 4 pounds due to not really wanting to eat while being sick. Conveniently, I also had a PS2 in my room of sickness and mastered the Hard level of Guitar Hero while I was sick as well. It was kind of weird as I would play the notes and see them falling in my head for a couple of those days when I wasn't playing.

And today I came into work from all the ickiness and was greeted by a wonderful Easter Care package!!! I squeed several times and I think I made myself sick on the malted milk balls and yummy chocolate. Thank you, Monica! You are the best sweetie ever! It is so nice to know that someone is thinking of you when you are feeling down and even though I was sick all those days, I felt so much care and love!
