I don't know how coherent this is going to be, but I'm going to give it a shot. Feeling 100% like shit today. Instead of improving, the cough has developed a cold so now I'm sneezing in addition to coughing so much that I sound like a 67 Chevy turning over. Awesome. I hate that for me.
I'm not quite to the point of drowning in snot, but I can see it on the horizon. I fucking hate being sick. I am not good at it, and I tend to be whiny. I'm already over this. I was over it when the first cough hit me, but now I am seriously done. It needs to fuck off and let me get a decent night's sleep. I haven't had one in like three nights thanks to the cough.
I had to cancel the 5th anniversary game of Frostmaiden, which made me sad. I may have shed a couple of tears after I sent the message that I was cancelling. I was just frustrated with my body and upset that I let the players of my second oldest game down. We at least were able to move it to the 9th, so it's not too far off.
TOday, I have work, whether I like it of not. I am realizing that I guessed correctly about going to Philly this weekend. There was just no freaking chance that I could drive nearly 2 hours like this. I'd be pulling over every three minutes to cough my brains out and blow my nose.
Instead, we will have a quiet weekend--no games scheduled til Sunday and that's not one I'm running, so even if I'm not quite fully healed, I can mute myself until I need to talk.
I just have to get through today's shift. I will, but it will probably suck.
Jess is equally sick, if not worse. They had a 99.6 temp yesterday. Not upto the point of a doctor marking it as a fever, but they normally run low, so 99.6 can feel like 100.6. At least they can take it easy today.
Depite cancelling Frostmaiden and the crud, which my sister also has, it was a nice day yesterday. We napped a couple of times and had plenty of good food via doordash and uber eats. The morning was mexican breakfast. I got the Hurrache Albanil, which is a corn tortilla, crema, cheese and two tried eggs on top. It's lovely and filling and very tasty. Right now, things aren't tasting that great. I'm more tired then hungry and when your stuffy like this flavors are muted. That was really tasty though. Jess got mole, which burned right through the stuffiness.
For lunch I ordered Crepes. There's a place in Catonsville caled the
Crepe Escape and Creamery that happened to be on Uber. It looked interesting, so I ordered. It was very delicious. Jess got the tropical with mango, pineapple and strawberry with coconut cream inside. I got the Strawberry, bananna, raspberry with coconut cream. I loved it. I couldn't eat all of it, but it was great. I had chocolate truffles and sprinkles on it, which gave it a great texture, in addition to the chocolate tasting amazing. My sister got the strawberry, raspberry and blueberry with whipped cream, which looked lovely. My sister and Jess ate all of theirs, and then Jess finished mine before bed (with my blessing)
Dinner was Bonefish grill, which was somewhat disappointing. My steak sort of sucked, but the Lobster was pretty good. And the Boom Boom shrimp appetizer was as always wonderful.
Today, we'll see if I'm going to be up to cooking after work. I suspect no, but, We'll see. I have some really nice steaks that I could throw on if I'm able to stand for that long.
Okay, time for me to go forth and consider breakfast. I think I'm going to eat leaftover pork souvlaki skewers. Everyone have a most excellent Friday! *air guitar*
