not feelin' so hot.

last night i cleaned a few things for no real reason.
didn't sleep well. i always sleep well. 
woke up two hours before i wanted to.
after going back to sleep, i slept two hours past when i wanted to wake up. 
i figured it happens, but subconsciously i knew what was up.
i took time to do my all my make-up, especially the eyes. 
wore a purple tuque, dr. suess sweatshirt, and brightly colored socks and shoes.
had to take tums and ibuprofen.
simply o.j. and homemade wheat bread for b-fast.
walked extra slow to the arena for campus forum.
even though all the signs were there i didn't think i was sick. 
mid-forum: headache worsened, nose got stuffy, throat itched and i got more tired. 
ate taco bell with hot hot sauce. 
got a coke with real caffeine.
bought a symphony (the kind with toffee and almonds) and a package of kleenex with a cute toy story alien on the package.
felt chilly and couldn't seem to warm up.
somehow i was delusional and thought it must be allergies. really? who has allergies this time of year?
almost fell asleep in class.
jogged home to try to warm up.
started studying.
my tongue and fingers became achy. 
replied to texts using only one word, such as "ya" "otay" "nope" 
gasp!! one word responses! i must be ill.
fell asleep for two hours (4:30ish-6:30ish) and didn't plan on doing so.
woke up and went to a shindig and felt like being back asleep the whole time.
i haven't been hungry all day.
i have basically accomplished absolutely nothing that i wanted to do today.
i have been extra indecisive.
it is 8:29pm and i want to be back in bed. 
apparently, i'm fighting a cold. i should have seen this coming. most of my friends have been ill recently. there were all the classic jeannette is sick signs and yet it wasn't until i was jogging that i thought to myself, wow jeannette you really aren't feeling well. 
20. doing all the things that make me feel better even when i won't fully believe that i am sick.
