Ick to Sick

I haven't felt so well this week. It's been a long time since I had a full blown cold and I have NOT appreciated its presence in my life this week.

It TOTALLY messed up my first week of training for the Tubby Tummy to 10K. I only got to actually run once. NOT AMUSING.

I also learned that being in the land of radio with a cold...is an interesting concept. Let's just say I'm glad my interview and judge-of-voice was LAST year at this time and not THIS year at this time.

I did drink an extraordinary amount of water this week (trying to help stifle coughing and soothe the throat), so I am pretty sure I'm more cleansed than I have been in months. That can't be bad, right?

You know how some people are really needy when they're sick...and others want to be completely left alone? Well, I'd hate to peg myself as really needy, but I gotta tell you - when I was mowing the yard yesterday, I inwardly yelled (because it's impossible to outwardly yell a blessed thing) SERIOUSLY? I'M SICK AND I'M MOWING THE YARD????

Monday when I was home from work, I had to make my own soup, and I said to myself, No one should have to cook her own soup when she's sick.

Stupid. I know. Needy. I know. But still true.

To be fair, I've felt much worse while sick. I mean, I was pretty functional all week. But when I came home each night, I just wanted to collapse in a chair and have someone bring me more water...and breadsticks. I had an incredible need for breadsticks. No idea why.

So that's my whine for the week. I very much try not to whine on the blog. It's unattractive. But let me tell you - so is this voice! :) So I've now whined...and I shall return to my chipper self on Monday, because...It's my birthday!!!!
