like a ton of bricks

so yesterday i was totally fine, i hung out at home, worked out at the gym, and went to the climbing gym for its grand opening partaaaay. unfortunately, while i was hanging out there, completely out of the blue, my throat started hurting terribly, and i got a headache. by the time we got to carrie's birthday gathering, my whole body hurt, and it was uncomfortable even to have pants on.

i've rarely experienced this sort of horrible onslaught of pain. i feel like there are 3 options, either it's my sinus infection, back AGAIN, it's strep, or it's the flu. the only thing that has helped so far is the tylenol with codine that i have from my first sinus infection. taking that is probably the only thing that has allowed me to make macaroni and cheese and type this. i hope it doesn't wear off anytime soon. and i'm hoping i'll be able to go, but i fear i might be home from work tomorrow. we'll see.

random orchid update: not only is my orchid still alive, but it now has 6 blooms!
