the sickout of 2011-Day 2...sorry jack

Hello all, today was my second day of serious illness...in which I broke my jack lalanne every day till may exercise pledge. I did manage to get vertical long enough to do dishes and make chicken soup....but that was it.
I don't know what this is, but it's bad.
I haveit. My oldest has it, and my youngest has it...and we were all in bed today.
I haven't been counting calories...just eating what was soft.
I feel flabby.
lol.
I had a crap workout the day before yesterday because I locked my keys in the car at the gym and had to be rescued and the gym closed early..
yesterday I got a token walk in and today I did nothing but sleep and pray this would end.
I haven't been this sick since the year tilda swinton wore a garbage bag to the oscars...hold on and let me find that.



2009...
you may wonder why I remember this.
Well, that was a particularly brutal illness...and we were all watching the oscars as a family (I can't remember why now) and this one came out...this dress...and as I gazed through the fog of my pounding head and lowered lids I muttered:
Why is that pasty man wearing a garbage bag?
and was informed that she was the ice queen from Narnia...duh...
then I wished in the privacy of my own mind that someone would take and dump me at the hospital so I could be alone in a quiet room,

So...this is not as bad as that, but pretty bad.
Hope you all are faring better than I.
Have a great night..
Hopefully we be fully on the road to recovery tomorrow.
Chris out.

Sounds as if you haz the flu. Recently traveled that route, myself. It sucked. I feel for you and your family.

Stay warm, rest, eat soft, warm stuff, drink lots of tea and push as much fluid as you can.

Feel better, soon. *passes chicken soup*

So given that it was during the Oscars that you were this sick last, and the Oscars are this weekend, do you think it is a coincidence? I think not. Perhaps the impending circus of people with over-inflated senses of self-worth makes you sick? It makes me kinda sick...

aww, sorry you're not feeling well Chris. Gotta be hard when you and the kiddos are all down for the count.

Rest up. Listen to your body and get plenty of rest. Sending you lots of healthy vibes so you can be up and about in no time.

Sorry you're feeling so sick! It sounds like it might be influenza. Hope it doesn't hang on too long, Chris. In the meantime it's ok to pamper yourself. The diet and exercise will wait.

Feel better soon! If I lived close I'd put on a mask and rubber gloves and come help you out. ;-)
