Fluids, Bitches.

So that bit in yesterday's entry where I said I figured I'd be good to go t work and classes today?  Yeah ... that was me totally lying out my ass.  I got up at 7:15 this morning, looked at my clock, and then collapsed back into bed; I didn't get up again until 10:25.  While I probably could have made it to Postcolonialism & Lit., I just didn't.

Tutor always used to say the best thing to do when sick was to stay home, because she did not want our germs. Also you got more rest. So I approve of this. Also: I TOLD YOU. WATER IS THE WIN, SODA IS BAD. And don't listen to people who tell you juice. Too much sugar in most brands. *preachpreachpreach, stumbles away muttering craziness*

I actually don't usually drink soda at all (I haven't since I was little and didn't like the way the sugar residue felt on my teeth), and when I do it's typically Sprite or Root Beer. And if I do drink juice it's just a glass at a time. Sugar's in so much fluids it's insane; someone like me, who likes having their bottle and sipping a lot, would be putting on a lot of weight if most of what I drank wasn't water or tea *shakes head*

Preaching appreciated, haha.

OMG I LIKE SPRITE TOO. But I've found that Gerolsteiner with lemon juice in is a good substitute. Although then there's the saline content, but hey.

Ah, you are blissfully healthy. Sipping all day. Very good. I am well pleased.

By the way: not only have I ingested a lot of fluids (namely, water), but they're actually doing what they should normally do. Best sign yet, I've actually gotten hungry, like, twice today. I think I'll be able to function tomorrow! XP Which is good, because tomorrow's the long day - classes 11-3:15, then 6-8:30, then bar 9-who-the-hell-knows (don't worry, all I ever drink there is water, and sometimes I order some kind of food). So having a normally-working body again will make all that go by much more pleasantly.

I hope you feel better!! *HUGS*

I feel much better now, thank you. Better enough to totally slack off on stuff for tomorrow... ^^
