For the past few days I've been feeling like crap. I'm talking the achy, throbbing, headached, generally miserable kind of crap. Right now I'm beginning to wonder if there's any other kind.
I'm feeling sorry for myself. I left work early and now I'm sitting here looking a fright in sweats (mind you I'm in Florida and the weather's great), Vicks on my chest, Advil in my person...sipping on some caffeine free Lemon herbal tea in a mug that boasts "I <3 My Attitude Problem"
What I should do is crawl my sorry butt into bed and get some rest. But I'm just too wound up for that to be effective. I'm excited, damn it! And sick. So I feel like I'm on a roller coaster. Here's the thing. I just found out from my boss that it looks like I'm getting another promotion. I'm thrilled. Ecstatic! I'm ready for new challenges. I'm not able to release any details yet, but this is something to sing and dance about!
And here I am, brought low by either bad allergies or a cold. Worse yet? I'm at home alone for the week...no one to take care of me. Not that I'm the type anyway, but sometimes being coddled can feel really good. It makes me miss my mommy and all her little food concoctions she used to make for me when I was sick as a child. Now if I want something, I've got to drag my butt out there and cook it myself.
Am I too old to say...."Whaaaa!"?
