Sneaky Virus

So apparently the virus that's been going around lately likes to attack in small doses. It hits you hard one day and you rest so you feel better, but the day you feel better you start going about your life and it hits you again. I went about my daily stuff yesterday, I didn't feel like I overdid myself by any means. I took care of chores around the house, exercised and just generally did my normal thing. I slept like a ton of bricks last night and this morning I woke up feeling like death. A bowl of cereal went down and felt like it was going to come right back up.

I got a lecture from my mom about how I need to slow it down now. Being so far along means I need to stay off my feet more and worry less about what needs to get done. Easier said, trust me. Days like today, I have no problem laying in bed and sleeping for another six hours, my body is begging for it. But I know tomorrow I'll start feeling better and immediately want to get back to life, which is apparently now supposed to be taken in small doses.

I just sat and had a very intense conversation with Brian and my hands on the keyboard felt a million miles away. It's that cloudy/foggy head feeling when you're not feeling well that brought on so much disconnection, how strange.
