Illin'

man, i guess this is just one of those weeks. I had an absolutely wonderful holiday weekend with my parents (more about that later) and then on monday woke up with an annoyingly painful tonsil the size of texas and a bit of a headache. I decided to use that day as my day off of the week from working out, but on tuesday I woke up feeling even worse. Around 8 pm I decided to go to the gym anyways in the hopes of sweating out whatever is ailing me, but after 20 minutes on the ellipticals I began to feel nauseous, dizzy, headache-y and shakey. I know what it feels like to push myself to the limits while I'm working out, and I know what it feels like to pass out/almost pass out, and this was definitely the latter. I got of the machine and sat down to avoid the whole tunnel-vision gonna-throw-up, oh-geez-now-I'm-waking-up-on-the-floor-of-the-gym thing, and after a couple minutes of regaining visual clarity I decided it was absolutely necessary that I get out of that gym stat. For the rest of the night I had a splitting headache, super sore throat, nausea, the works. Totally, totally sucky! This cold thing really just sprung up on me out of no where... although it probably wasn't helped by the fact that I've been living off of easter brunch leftovers since sunday in order to avoid grocery shopping (me=poor).

I'm going to brave the gym again tonight and see if I feel any better, but this whole illness thing has really thrown me off and I seem to be a day behind this week, hence the movie monday on tuesday and a tasty tuesday later today (wednesday). Hopefully I'll be back on schedule by the weekend, and then I've got 3 tests in a row to look forward to and then 5 days of blissful nothingness before I complete the last third of my french final on the 9th. really looking forward to summer and all the craziness and fun it will bring!

Anyways, I just wanted to check in and give you guys my boring tale of illness. Tasty tuesday later today, maybe a vloggin' vednesday if i feel up to it, and plenty more fun in the next few days.

happy humpday loves!
