A dilemma

Do I cancel my coffee date since I’m sick? Yes, it’s 3:33 am. I can’t sleep as my throat is bothering me. I got up at least 5 times during the night and finally gave up. I have 3 Ibuprofen sitting here but can’t take them on an empty stomach or they won’t work right, so I need to eat something.

It feels like something minor, not strep throat again or the flu. I rarely get sore throats like this but I’m only a little stuffy.

    I vote that you wait until tonight… Maybe you’ll miraculously feel better.
    Of course, it’s not like you can’t reschedule.
    Regardless, I hope you get better soon!

    Thanks :)

    Those who have read this blog for years know I don’t get sick often, and my last “major” cold was the flu which left and came back a week later, then for 7 weeks I was sick and I had bronchitis. Since then I’m paranoid about getting sick. I had no one to take care of me, no one to even bring me a hot cup of tea (and I have a hot water coolor in my house!) and I felt like crap for so long.

    The Ibuprofen takes care of the sore throat.

    I’m off to buy popsicles and a few quarts of chicken soup from my favorite little Chinese restaurant. It’s not local but they make it from scratch with no salt and it really does make me feel better.

    Of course, going out in 17 degree weather won’t help much!
