IMG_3493When I’ve lost my appetite, it means that I am severely ill.  I’m not on my death bed, but I’ve had a lingering cold and fever for the past five days.  I can’t shake it.  I am 80 pounds which is really frightening, but I’m not hungry at all.  Why eat when you’re not hungry.  This is coming from a girl who normally thinks about food constantly.  What’s in the vending machine?  What different kind of See’s Candy can I buy?  I spent the past weekend getting as much sleep as possible.  I sound like a man.  I’m totally completely congested.  I’m drugged up on Sudafed so I’m anxious and jittery, too.  Even if I wanted to take a sick day, I can’t.  There’s so much going on at work.  I definitely need a vacation.  Hooray for my wifie’s bachelorette weekend in Sedona starting Friday.  I don’t care if I get everyone sick.  I will be there with a big smile on my face, sipping a bloody, and blowing my nose!
