10 hours in a car. *edit

 Dear Diary;

So. Here is a run down of the last 3 days:

♥ Thursday night Erin and I decided we’d drive to Kingston to see a movie and then spend the night at my brother’s place so we wouldn’t have to drive home after. We saw "She’s Out Of My League", which was kinda funny, and then crashed at Matt’s. I got about… oh.. 4 or 5 hours of sleep- but I tossed and turned all night.

♥ Friday we got up and drove home and I started to feel not so great- my dad had a cold a few weeks ago and he so kindly passed it on to my mother, who so kindly passed it on to me. My throat has been scratchy and sore and I feel like I could cough up a lung. I tried to go to bed early because I knew I had to get up early yesterday- but I still couldn’t get to sleep before 12:30am.

♥ Saturday morning I was up at 4:30 with a sore throat and funky stomach and a throat/chest full of phlegm. I took some tylenol and a gravol and tried to fall back asleep- but ended up getting up at 5:30 and showering/getting ready to go to Waterloo to visit my cousin Kaitlyn at University. I was debating whether I should even go or not because I wasn’t feeling so hot- but I drugged myself up and got in the car and we took off. 5 freaking hours to get there. We went to the mall to shop a little- but my throat was sore and I wasn’t in the mood to shop. I was going to buy New Moon- but couldn’t be bothered to find it because really, I just wanted to sleep. We went out to dinner and then got back in the car and drove 5 hours back home. I practically jumped out of the car when we pulled in the driveway because I was SO sick of the back seat.

♥ I tried to sleep in this morning- and would have had my stupid cat not been meowing at my window at 8am. I tried to ignore him for an hour, but ended up just getting up and letting him in because he was driving me insane. I still have a sore, scratchy throat and a cough (that’s both dry AND phlegmy…. figure that one out) and I’m determined to stay in my pj’s ALL day and just rest. The more sleep I get, the better I feel.

 

* A moment to brag..

I’ll write more later cause I don’t feel like it right now, but I just wanted to brag for a moment about my brilliant cousin who made the Dean’s list in Science at the University of Waterloo. She’s planning to be a pharmacist.

That sucks, I’m such a whiny baby when I’m sick and I lay around and do nothing. There’s no way you would’ve gotten me on a 5 hour trip, much less shopping! I hope you feel better! =)
