Herein lies my salvation

My new year has been kinda shitty so far. And no, I'm not taking that as any indication of how this year is going to be because I'm trying to think positively despite the shitty-ness.

A few things in particular have cause this recent state:

1.) A friend of mine blew me off on New Year's for her controlling ex-boyfriend. Needless to say, her requests to hang out have been on the back burner ever since. And did I mention, she killed plans that had been a week in the making only the day before New Year's Eve. Irritating. I had fun with my roomie, no doubt about that, but still...irritating.

2.) Migraine headache this past Monday confined me to the batcave (aka my bedroom) for the majority of the day. I made it to the doctor where I seem to have caught....

3.) A sore throat, fever, and inflamed sinuses. Fuck. Another day at home from work, however, I did some work from home, so I wasn't completely unproductive. Not exactly the kind of extended vacation I would have liked.

So, back to work today with a nice scratchy throat and constant sneezing. How do I make it through the entire day, you might wonder? Drugs....lots of good yummy drugs. The legal kind of course (or unfortunately, depending on your taste).

Which drugs to be exact?
1.) that lovely throat-numbing Tylenol liquid...oh, how I love thee!
2.) Midrin (when the migraine hits me, I reach for this)
3.) CAFFEINE...lots and lots of yummy caffeine....this is essential to help combat the seasonal affect for me as well.

So, my menu for the week is as follows:


A delicious Low Carb Monster Energy in the morning, and a sugary tall-boy Coca-Cola in the afternoon. Not the healthiest, I know, but it works. Gotta do what you gotta do!

Song of the day: "The Way We Get By" Spoon
