Pre-Break Shakes

Not much to say about the weekend- I was on the couch in my sweats from Wednesday night until Sunday morning.
I felt well enough to want to go out on Saturday, but the surprising effort it took to keep myself upright during my shower changed my tune. My friends went to the grocery store and brought me back some ginger ale and chicken soup, which I was able to keep down with great success. I also had cafeteria food for dinner last night, which was a real test of wellness. I did get overexcited and ate too much too fast, but didn't puke at all, hooray.

Sunday Dance Group rehearsal was interesting- our faculty adviser came to lead our warm-up, but we were short 2 girls and the rest of us weren't on our best behavior either. I was a little woozy but felt like hot shit because I lost ten pounds due to my stomach virus.

Thing I'm not too pleased about lately:
-I asked the production manager of Brigadoon to give me a long Saturday choreography workshop. She gave me three hours TOMORROW.
-I have to be home for the entire week of Spring Break because I'm getting oral surgery on Monday [nothing major, I've had this same thing done three times already] and need to get the stitches taken out on Friday. This means that the only things that make going home worthwhile to me, having my mom buy me stuff and being taken out to eat, won't be available activities due to recovery crankiness and mouth pain.
-It just took me a half hour to try and get my eyeliner even. It's still not even; I just gave up.
-Last night I emailed my French professor because I forgot to submit a draft of a presentation that I thought we had to give this week. Turns out that we aren't presenting until after break. Was I even supposed to turn in a draft? This is the most confusing class I've ever taken.
-My face is breaking out, most likely due to my womanly cycle, not really washing it while I was sick, and home-dread stress.
-I am really, really not looking forward to being at home for break. It's like being a grounded highschooler only I don't get to leave the house ever because I have no money to do anything and none of my friends ever have break at the same time as me. It's a week away and I'm already getting the shakes from the stress that being at home causes me [not hyperbole, my hands and arms are shaking right now thinking about it]. Someone remind me to bring my liquor home. OH WAIT I won't even be able to drink because I'll be on painkillers, antibiotics, and won't be able to eat for the whole week. FUCKKKK.

Keep it together keep it together keep it together.

Glad you're feeling better :)

And what's all this about not drinking just because of painkillers, antibiotics, and a lack of solid food? No excuses, play like a champ!

Seriously, though, don't die. I like your blog.

glad to hear you're feeling better... i'm sure you just had to say BRIGADOOOOOOOOOOON a few times and you were just BAM! back to health!

just think of all the great daytime tv you can watch while you're chilling at home! i've been ridiculously into bravo recently, but i love catching random "how it's made" or "the history of steel" or (and i promise i'm not making this up) "tyranosaurus sex." or lifetime movies... excellent way to waste the day!

College without drinking is like first grade without eating paste.

Fellow 20sb-er,

At least you're not having a cavity filled without any numbing agents on your 19th birthday.

Love,

haha, hoped you kept it together and are still keeping it together ;)

Man, I 100% agree about going home. I get the same feelings, though never literally the shakes.

And I hate confusing classes...
