MON. SEPT 15

The day is a fog, as I spent much of it with a fever of 102...

I didn't realize it at first -- just in a lot of pain, really tired -- but I chalked that up to having to get up at 5:30 to get Sabrina to her class trip. Went back to bed, dragged myself up to go to our accountants to sign taxes, and to lunch w/ a school parent.

At lunch what I really wanted was nothing but protein -- but at these "ladies who lunch" things, one has to order salads, pretty much. So I ordered a HALF COBB SALAD, because it was the salad with the most protein in it I could think of -- lettuce, tomato, hard-boiled egg, blue cheese, balsamic vinegraitte. I don't know why they left off the bacon. As it was, I could barely taste the salad. That should have been a hint there was something wrong. Oh, and PELLEGRINO to drink.


Then I came home and collapsed. I was freezing, shivering -- and realized I was sick. I canceled my dinner plans and spent the rest of the day in a complete fog -- pain, fever, sweats, chills, the whole thing.

Sometime in the evening, Lee made me eat a bowl of WHITE RICE. The rest fades away in a miasma of pain and fog.
