wednesday nov. 23, 0000 (day before thanksgiving)
i am at work right now which is a blessing i guess considering sometime last night between 9p.m. and 5:24 a.m. i prayed for death. the story is this:
carolyn calls me at 7:15 tuesday a.m. sick as hell asking if i could stop and bring her a bottle of gingerale on my way to work... no problem. she says she has "that type of virus we had years ago" (living hell) so i drop it off and go on to work about 10 a.m. i'm feeling a little run down but figure its just psychosomatic (the mere mention of the sickness of years ago is enough to break you down). anyhow by 11 a.m. nausea sets in... lunchtime i can only sip water --- next hour or so the "hooray for diaaaahhhrrrreeaaaaah" portion of the illness kicks in. and so it goes alternating the "di" and vomiting almost half hourly. i went home climbed in bed at 3:00 and only got up to vomit several more times. i was afraid to drink water but did and threw it up... about midnight i opened the refridgerator and had really nothing that didn't make me feel like vomiting.. the best choice i had was some pineapple chunks i could eat 2. past midnight fever came on i think i was a little delirious i remember waking up seemingly every 20 minutes and i remember my arms hurt, my hands hurt, my back hurt, my legs hurt... suffice it to say it was less then fun. thinking it was the 24 hour kind i got up today and went to work at the liberry 2-6 and have already vomited 2x and just can't wait to get out. i can tell its almost over but not over enough. and damnitt i want to enjoy thanksgiving dinner tomorrow.
pray for me.
and have you a nice thanksgiving - enjoy your pie!
