Sick
I was sick yesterday, but now I'm better. I went to school yesterday afternoon to work in the library, then go to Brass Rep...I only worked in the library for about an hour before I started feeling really sick (but then sick feeling came and went about every 5-10 minutes). So I went to the health center to see if the doctor could tell me if I had something. I explained to her my symptoms, and also mentioned that my roommate Hannah was sick for the past two days. I had a slight temperature, and she said that it was most likely the Noro virus. She says that there are varying degrees of it, and I probably just had a mild case. So she told me to go home and drink plenty of liquids.
I don't know how much of my sickness was mental, but on the way home on the bus, I had to get off about 4 stops early because I thought I was going to puke on the bus. Fortunately, I didn't. And I made it home without getting really sick again. But when I came home, the sick feeling came back...it kept going back and forth like this for the rest of the day. I just laid down on the couch and watched "My Best Friend's Wedding" and "Wings of a Dove" which were both depressing and had to do with love triangles...I wouldn't have watched them if I had known they would both end the opposite way than I expected. Finally I was able to fall asleep, and Robbie came over and made some chicken broth for me, which made me feel MUCH better.
This morning I feel fine! I hope it stays that way too. I'm going to lay low all day, just to be safe. I hope Krystal is fine. She left last night to avoid the virus, and Hannah is in Vermont for the weekend...hopefully she doesn't have it anymore either. Well, it seems as if I'm going to be well enough today to practice for my Tanglewood audition tomorrow. Yay!
