92/365: They Never Tasted So Good
I don't know what happened. It started in the early evening yesterday. I didn't feel quite right. We were supposed to go out, but I cancelled and I'm glad I did. From about 7PM Sunday night until about 5PM tonight, I have limited recollection. The stomach bug hit hard. I tried eating dinner on Sunday. I tried to sleep it off. I tried the bed. I tried the couch. I think I actually hallucinated for a while. This morning I had Klucker bring me crackers. I tried one and waited. An hour later I tried another. Ok, I thought, I'm out of the woods. I tried to get up to fix toast. I made it from the couch to the kitchen table and had to sit down. After a few minutes I ventured to the pantry where I had to sit on the floor. After segmenting this simple event into tens of steps, I got my toast. The next six hours were filled with brief waking moments of me looking at the television to see what time it was and rolling back over. Around 4 I actually was able to sit up for more than 10 minutes. But then the awful headache hit. I waited to shower until Klucker got home because I didn't know if I could stand that long. Tonight I graduated to about a half cup of mac and cheese. It's been two hours and I think I'm ok. The funny thing is, with all the sleeping I've done today, I can't wait to go to bed.
