AM weigh-in: 164 (I don’t think I even care anymore)
I have officially come down with the worst cold. I hurt. I am TIRED. And since I have to work, all I do is sit at my desk all day and eat: pretzels, crackers, cookies… carbs carbs carbs. The evil carbs. Not the good, healthy, full of fiber carbs like vegetables and whole grains. No, the white flour, sugar, fat fat fattie mcfatterson fat making carbs. And Coke Zero. So carbs and caffeine - that is literally what is animating my body these days. Maybe with a touch of sheer willpower.
Calling in sick is not an option. One, cause it’s a stupid cold. It’s not the flu, it’s not bronchitis or anything even remotely serious, it’s just a stupid cold. I’m miserable, but not anywhere near dying. Which means, I’m also pissy. Cause I feel like crap, but not death warmed over crap. Just crappy crap. So I feel like a big fat cry-baby whiner. Cause I am. And I hate that.
Second, I took so much time off the past two months and I can’t afford another day off. Especially since I still HAVE to take time off this week for Skye’s 5 year check up and next week for graduation. I’m so behind on my hours that it’s like a whole paycheck. I have massive making up to do!
Did I mention that I really just want a nap? Like a three day nap? Is that really so much to ask?
