Short and Not Sweet

I went to bed late last night, woke up this a.m. at 7 with a pounding headache, which sure enough, soon turned into a migraine with its accompanying side effects (I'm lucky, I get the nausea WITH the vomiting). I stumbled to my purse where I keep the tylenol p.m. handy, ate a few, got some ice to put on the back of my neck (I read somewhere that that helps) and the next thing I knew it was 2 p.m.!!

I think I was in college the last time I spent that long in bed! And I'm pretty sure I wasn't alone at the time! Or barfing! I felt weak, but did some laundry then took back the new clothes I bought last week to replace everything I gave away.

Sigh.

I ran four times this week! M, T, Th, and Friday. Friday I went beserk and ran two miles straight. My initial 9:43 minute mile has calmed down to a nice respectable 11 min mile slog, but it's OK. I'm running! I warm up, run 1.5 miles, and cool down. It feels good. I just need to figure out how to get to work early enough on the bus so I can get my run in, shower, and be in my seat, all chipper and ready to go, by 8 a.m.

Weekends are really too short to be sick.
