I reached the pinnacle (thus far) of my sickness today.

I wake up feeling sore...everywhere. From there I discover nausea and a headache to top the richter scales, accompanied by coughing fits that make my brain joggle around in my skull. These coughing fits do two things. One, they make the soreness turn from annoying to almost unbearable, meaning I almost cry, pass out, or scream. Two, I am now convinced theres a tiny fluffy kitten stuck in my chest, and he is vehemently trying to claw his poor little way out of my solar plexus. It hurts to breathe, it hurts to talk, and it hurts to cough...and EVERYTHING makes me cough. Somehow I manage to make it through a six hour shift with only relative issues. My photography was off due to a combination of feeling like death-on-a-stick and a couple really hectic children. I like how my photography and work in general is only discussed when there are problems. I also like how when I have a good sitting the praise is lavished on the person who made the sale. I don't mind my inconsistencies being brought o my attention, I only ask for equal acknowledgment that I also produce beautiful work, and that sittings do not always give me the opportunity to make everything perfect. If the block was the only thing keeping him IN the box before he threw it out, I can't help that it remained on the floor next to the box for the brief time he smiled and stayed put.

But I digress....
I get home and immediately go to bed, where I sleep until Chris wakes me up to go with him to the grocery store. We spend an hour at ACME....an excrutiatingly painful hour I might add..A couple times I almost sit on the floor until someone decided to carry me home in a shopping cart, but I stick it out, and finally we make it home.

If I thought I could sleep, or that lying down wouldn't cause further pain, I's go back to bed. I told Chris I'd cook ravioli tonight, but I'm not sure it's going to happen. Sorry, hunny.

*coughhackcough* out.

Poor dear! That's awful, get well soon. I give you cyber green tea sweetened with honey. Stay in bed! Chris must fend for himself until you are 200% better! =]
