Nov. 28th, 2009 12:32 amThis has been a really bizarrely wack day-after-Thanksgiving.
I suppose it is partially because yesterday was the first day in quite awhile that I ate a lot of crap food, and nothing else. Partially because it's suddenly become cold (it's 48 degrees outside right now - 2 nights ago it was in the upper 80s; what?), and I am just a complete and total baby about the cold. And I had a pretty big sleep deficit going?
Anyway I've spent the whole day walking around in my house in long pants and long sleeves, with a scarf and socks on, either sitting around trying to be warm as I slugged through listings on writersmarket.com, huddled under a blanket with a child, or cozied up to Grant, who is like a walking furnace. Which is practically making me moan to even get near, today. My family - including Bob - has done a ton of yard work and outside play while I wondered why I feel as though I'm about to drop off to sleep if it weren't for the chill. I've seriously felt I'd lose consciousness if I just put my head down ever since I woke up.
Which was 1 in the afternoon O_o
And then for the past two hours, I have a sore throat starting, and some sniffles, and just generally feel like achey crap.
I did spend about half an hour extra-bundled and on my bike, with Jake and then Elise riding in the seat behind me. Other than that - nothing. I'm talking NOTHING, people, everyone in this house has scrounged through leftovers to feed themselves all day and the few things that still needed to be cleaned up after the feast are still sitting in the same spots.
My head is full of cotton or something. I'm waiting up trying to outlast the last child who is still awake, while drinking cups of herbal immune-boosting teas.
I had better be just fine tomorrow. That is what happened the last time I felt like this in the evening anyway, whether due to getting good stuff in my body and then resting or just by chance, who knows.
Blaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh...
