Well, I am feeling a lot better. So this is a definate positive. I didn’t listen to Dr. Malte‘s advice (probably a bad idea), and I went out drinking and partying. It seems that is what my body wanted…not what it needed – it needs rest…but wanted. 🙂

My party had only about 8 people…I invited 28. But you know what, it was a success anyway. It was cozy and comfortable. And we stuffed ourselves with snacks and drinks and listened to good music. I just need to remember that it was probably too close to Christmas. Or I just don’t have many friends. Whatever, it didn’t diminish the night.

The next party will be in January or February (and Malte, I promise to invite you, a factor I overlooked in my dayquil/nyquil/sudafed-induced state *sad and “i’m sorry” face*)

It’s snowing at the moment, Deborah Cox is in the CD player, and I am gorging myself on vodka-filled chocolates. I feel so Marlon Brando at the moment…as if all the cares of the world can be forgotten just by eating an entire apple pie.

Goodness….I am sicker than I thought. I am not sure why I am having a party exactly, but I feel like no matter what the outcome, it is too late to cancel it now. I am not sure if it’s the flu, but it feels stronger than a cold.

I was hoping to surprise my family in Boston with a “fly by” visit home (24 December – 26 December), but I hurt too much to make the journey.

Last night, I was so full of dayquil, nyquil, and sudafed that I began to hallucinate while I was trying to sleep. I was kinda caught in a waking nightmare for 2 hours, with images too horrible to describe. I was so awake I could hear everything around me, but I wasn’t able to react. And last night was my second 100-degree (farenheight) fever in 4 days.

My body really hurts. No, it’s not that simple. My bones ache. I’ve been struggling not to pass out a couple of times this week (Red Bull has kept the heart racing, even if the body has other plans).

But I must have this party tonight…it’s too late to cancel. I’ll think of some stronger drug combinations from my medicine cabinet to get me through tonight. I need to lie down so that I have strength to clean and shop and get ready for tonight.

Talk to all later…hope you are feeling better than me…

So I am sick…really sick…but at least it doesn’t feel like it’s the flu, and I broke the fever i had in one day 🙂

Time to head into the office…work to get done and christmas time is upon me!

Decided that I would take Monday morning off and go to work in the afternoon. We will see how this weekend goes…I am having a party.
