I took a sick day today. I've been feeling shitty lately and have been sort of back to where I was last year when I had to drop out of school and I could barely get out of bed. When I do managed to make it out of bed, I have to take one or two three/four hour naps a day at least, and I still feel like shit. So when I got twelve hours of sleep last night and didn't feel any better this morning, I decided to take the day off. I wasn't really needed at rehearsal today. We weren't moving on with anything new that I was involved in. I was only necessary for the run-through, and I know all my lines and choreography, so really I think I'm doing well. Whatever.
I stayed home, in bed, took a bath, read a book, and played through a level of KH2. That was the extent of my day. And it felt so nice. Really really nice to not do anything. I ate fruit and took all of my additional meds (I have four new medications to take, along with the three I'm already on....yay!), and I had a healthy breakfast, and I've been keeping good track of all the food I'm eating and naps I'm taking, etc, so I feel like I'm starting to get on the right track.
Brian and I made plans to get food with Jess tonight, since it wouldn't be very taxing for me to go out for food. Afterwards, we decided to drop in on the movies and saw the Forbidden Kingdom, the new Jet Li/Jackie Chan film, and it was fairly fabulous. Made my night. Really, I just felt so free and relaxed, to spend time with friends and do something fun, to not be pressured by anyone.
And then I got home. We're not even going there.
I'm just going to listen to some Panic! At the Disco, and let it chill me out back to the good mood I was in.
