how i spent my summer vacation
Jun. 29th, 2001 12:21 amTonight was kind of a blow-out, I suppose.
I wrote my last entry, about feeling icky, but I took a shower and that seemed to improve it somewhat. I figured that it would help to just be up, moving around, getting ready, etc. So that's what I did.
Went out to dinner and stopped for ice cream first. I had promised myself no ice cream til the weekend, but then I rationalized that Thursday is the weekend, since we have a holiday coming up and all. The dinner was neither bad nor great and I compounded my naughtiness by having a drink (a daquiri-like concoction with a strawberry/banana flavor and Captain Morgan rum).
I paid, I paid. We established that there were two hours left before the movie we wanted to see, Shrek. So we went over to the bookstore to sit them out. By the time we had been there an hour, I felt pretty wretched - like my stomach was going to revolt in one direction or another. I kept putting my head on the table and mumbling about how I didn't feel, but I wouldn't call off the movie for sure until it was time to leave. Did buy a couple of books, Gaiman's new American Gods and Marcus Aurelius's Meditations. Avoided Plato and Nietzsche for the time being. Ended up electing not to see the movie because I didn't feel well enough to be out til 1AM. I still feel exactly as I did this afternoon, actually, only not quite so feverish.
Had to stop at a drugstore afterwards, because the Momster made an impromptu visit to the doctor this afternoon and got all sorts of new precriptions - quinine for leg cramps, as well as ambien, celexa, and more prevacid. hopefully this will help her more. all her tests are coming back normal but she's still having a lot of problems.
Now I am home, and very yawning. Hopefully a good night's sleep will serve to clear up my blahfeelingness.
