so. like i said yesterday, i woke up not feeling so well, but just thought it was because i was sore from working out or something. i got up and went on to work just to realize that i was actually sick. i called my clients for the day, and rescheduled them and went home to rest. as the day got on, i realized that i did have something, because none of the meds i got at publix made me feel better. i maintained a temp of at least 100 degress even with ibuprophen and nyquil, so i just sucked it up and decided to go to the after hours care at HHWest.
when i arrived at the clinic, of course, there were other ailing folks there, but nobody else with flu-like symptoms. just me. that may not sound like a big deal, but with all of this h1n1 stuff going around, the lady at the desk made me wear a doctors mask in the waiting room. i could just see everyone trying to avoid me....the swine flu girl! you really can't go incognito with a doctors mask on! everyone was avoiding me like the plague! so embarrassing! but, i did what my girl tyra banks always says, i rocked that doctors mask. i decided that i was going to be the cutest (as cute as sick can be) girl in a doctors mask there ever was! then, suddenly, everyone in the room wanted a mask!!!....okay, so it was just the little 7-year old waiting with her grandmother, but I ROCKED IT!
so, the doctor (finally) came in, and determined by means of a throat swab that I indeed had the dreaded STREP THROAT. ick. my throat hurts so bad! like swallowing razor blades i tell you!
well, this really upsets me because i was so stoked about working out and actually looking forward to my next session, but the sore throat really keeps me from eating like i want to (the BFL way) because all i want is something that feels good on my throat that really doesn't take effort to swallow. so, just until i get over this mess, i am going to have to wait unitl monday to get back on track. i really am upset about this. i know it sounds like i am not since i only spent one session in the gym before i got sick (is someone trying to tell me something?), but i really was looking forward to getting back in there! just one little setback in my plans.
well, now it is time for me to go take some more meds and go back to sleep. thanks for reading, and good night...er uh...i mean good nap! ;)
