Day 9 - *whimper*

[fredericks]

Grilling it up. I didn't feel like cooking at all, so we went out to a local teppanyaki-style restaurant we favor for dinner. I love this place because it's owned by a wonderful friendly family whose matriarch always takes the time to chat with patrons during the eating experience.

I felt godawful yesterday. I felt a little better today - a lot, actually, because that abdominal pain was no joke - but I woke up with a painful sore throat, the type that tends to get better after drinking/swallowing (although you don't want to swallow at all at first) but you know will worsen again at night. I couldn't muster the energy to go anywhere or do anything of note due to the minor achey feeling that's lingered throughout, along with periodic twinges from my back and joints. I don't know what the heck is going on, but I do think it's related to my visit to the gym a couple of days ago. I must have picked up some bug while using the equipment. Damn biohazard.

Re-watched some Spaced episodes (my favorite is still the episode from the the first series where the gang goes clubbing), avoided finishing up work, and hoped very hard that I wouldn't have to go to work tomorrow. Barring Armageddon, however, I think I'll have to report in. *sigh* Fun.

Nothing new, but I haven't slipped too far yet. Score?
