Grey

Dec 3, 2008 by

Ugh. Still sick and a little bit worse actually.

Yesterday I was feeling much better, and then I did something dumb. I’ve been craving my workout that I now love so much. So I thought, why not give it go? Well I pushed just as hard as I usually do, if not even more. I did a bit over three miles on the treadmill, increased my repetitions on weights, crunches, and squats. Stretched it out and then took a shower. I felt great as I did all that.

Then after my shower I went downstairs to eat a bowl of cereal and watch a show. My cold struck back and was basically like “fuck you.” I had the hardest time falling asleep because of my sinuses. So I wiped on some vapor rub and upped my dosage of NyQuil (from one pill to two). Through the night I tossed and turned and blew my nose. It felt like it was burning, probably from the vapor rub. I thought there was no real way I could work today, but then I remembered that Greg was going to be in training all day and so I had to back him up, and we’re trying to launch a new LMS service feature that I need to edit some docs for. So somehow, I found the will to get my ass out of bed and get ready for this place.

It’s cold outside and grey. I’m happy about that because when I feel this way I just can’t deal with the sunshine. I’m sitting in a rather dark office now, not even wanting to turn my lamp on. So far I am loving the colder weather and the grey that this late autumn has given us. I’m hoping that December will be a very snowy month. What a difference than two years ago when I feared the snow. It’s nice to live so close to work and have someone drive me in that has no fear about it. Now I can really enjoy it.

So this is my post. It’s about being sick and about the weather. How boring. But that’s about all I can put into it today.

I’m proud to report that I am still holding out on Breaking Dawn. Even though I am yearning to read it, I just don’t want it to be done yet.

    Sorry you’re feeling shitty-er. That is no fun. I’m so proud of you and your workouts. And a little bit jealous! I have no motivation even though I should.

    Grey today for you. For us today it’s the flaming sun! Nice to see it once in a while I suppose. The sound looks really pretty but I’m ready for the sun to go away now. I miss the snow so much, I am glad you are getting to enjoy it. Send me some!
