Oh dear, you're all so sweet, I couldn't ask for better internet buddies!
I have been a bit down and out. I caught a nasty cold that went to my lungs and now I have a touch of viral pneumonia. I think it's because I haven't been active enough and thus not breathing deeply enough, honestly. Boo on me. It's not severe but my major problem has been that I'm coughing up a lot of nasty green stuff that gets swallowed, and it makes me so intensely nauseous that I have trouble eating anything at all. They have me back on zofran and phenergan because I didn't eat for two days straight and have lost 7 pounds this week. I've been sleeping sleeping sleeping. No energy at all. I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel though, I'm setting an alarm to go off every 2 hours and I force myself to eat at least a little something and it's helping me feel a little better overall even if it does make my tummy roil. And I've stopped worrying about that extra weight I was carrying after plastics, so, small blessings in disguise? Perhaps I'll emerge from this with clear lungs and a size 8 pants.
A male acquaintance saw me yesterday and said "You look like you're dying but I'm not gonna lie, you look hot too." Thanks, I think. Wasn't there an artist who only used models who were dying of tuberculosis or consumption, because of their slender pallor and red cheeks? I'm pretty sure I heard that somewhere. Need to look it up.
Anyway, thanks for your concern, it's nice to know that I'm missed, I love you guys. I'll be fine and before you know it I'll be back on the boards bugging people with overly wordy sermons again. :)
