Sick as a dog...

A few nights ago I watched the movie Earth! It was pretty fun, except for when a baby caribou was eaten by a hungry cheetah... or when a baby elephant got lost from the pack and wandered off into to the desert alone... or when the papa polar bear died of starvation... Other than that it was an enjoyable Disney film! I watched it with Jared while laying on the couch, coughing every 5 minutes and a little queasy yet still trying to sip my chicken noodle soup. I came down with the flu on Saturday night. Its now Thursday and I feel I have made progress. I am now showering regularly and applying at least mascara so I don't look ghoulish every time I pass a mirror. Today has been the best day of this week so far because I have my appetite back! I had a chicken sandwich with bbq sauce... it was quite delicious! I haven't been sneezing like i had been the past few days. I still get little dizzy spells which are weird but I think maybe the more food and nutrients I get into my body the less weird i will feel. i hope... Tonight Jared coaxed me into going to a movie. a free movie, in fact. we saw a preview showing of The Boys are Back with Clive Owen. really good movie! I had to hold back tears a few times... during the movie i had the urge to cough a few times so i would cough into my scarf. there was an old asian lady sitting next to me who quickly wrapped her face with her jacket to protect herself from my infectious disease! I brought it to Jared's attention and his response was: *chuckle* "That's awesome! You want me to cough too?!!" haha.... that's my husband. He always has my back. I love him!
