cheesy. fruity. feverish. fun.
not even a fever held me back from the party saturday night. sorta stupid- i know, but we had a gig so i really had no choice. it was so much fun too- so many people came out meredith & steve (yeah, thank you!!), kicks, darlene, marci & emily, debbie & bill, gomer, and so many more...yeah- many friends are good and i love them all. (hopefully their immunities were up) besides everyone coming out i don't recall having ever backed out of a gig for health reasons. you just get up there and do the best you can. i've played 2x with a fever before. once in oakland with the royal pains where i laid on the sidewalk outside after we played. and once at the monkey with the stuck-ups and goddamn gentlemen. i am pretty sure my fever actually broke during the paper dolls set saturday. i know i should have been on lock down but i had been doing so many good things for my body the week preceding. yoga sunday, massage monday, acupuncture tuesday, wednesday i took a day off and attempted to go to yoga but drank a bunch of beer instead. tuesday and thursday were steam and sauna - my favorites. i am also taking milk thistle caps, 3/6/9 omegas, renew-U liver support and skin clear tinctures and my regular vitamins. however, after swollen glands for 8 days i went to the docs today and they diagnosed me with bronchitis. i know exactly where i contracted said virus. the airplane home from NYC. yep, the guy next to me sniffed the entire flight. thank god for hoodies and earphones or i may have gone crazy. so, i got the antibiotics and should be good in two days. funny thing was that i was fine after our set and into sunday. but when the party was over and the whiskey and pills wore off so did my facade. whew, no work for me today. lots of sleep and fluids though. i was craving mac & cheese so i just went the store and came out with a strange combination of goods: stouffers small mac & cheese(so not good for bronchitis), cran-grape juice, water, apples, strawberries, a bag of frozen veggies(i never buy frozen), cruncy rasin-bran and soy milk, cambozola cheese & wasa, morningstar chix patties and candy fruit slices. weird because i rarely buy many of these things, not really even hungry just have cravings. damn fever. get well soon self we have a big weekend at egg coming up.
