i'm alive!

this is no small feat. thursday night emily, hilda and i went down to barton springs for the full moon party (also known as night swimming). i was in bed by 11p but woke up a number of times that night feeling a tad nauseous. by 6a, the nausea was full blown and the diarrhea had started. then came the swings in body temperature and by noon, my muscles hurt so badly i just couldn't lay in any comfortable position. yesterday was spent mostly sleeping though i would occasionally wake up to use the loo and get myself some water. in total, i spent 32 hours in bed. i'm pretty impressed with that statistic.

i went for a run this morning (having not eaten anything in about 35 hours) and felt fine though a little weak. while i was cooking myself breakfast afterward i had to sit down while i was cutting stuff, but logic would suggest that i was probably weak from having not eaten in so long. i'm feeling better now that i have something in my stomach, but i think today is also going to be spent napping and sitting around not doing much of anything. there was lots of stuff to do this weekend, but honestly, i'm quite content to just be hanging out. i think i needed it after the craziness of the last month.
