The Seven Week Break Begins

Last Friday I finished my last few assignments and was officially done with the semester! Woohoo! I've never been so happy- so free!

That evening we went to late-night $5 buffet at Pizza Pie Cafe and stuffed ourselves silly with delicious pizza and pasta to celebrate. Later, when we were getting ready for bed, my very full tummy started to hurt. Thinking maybe it was just an overload of delicious food I crawled into bed and went to sleep.

Three hours later I was leaning over the toilet puking up the wonderful pizza that had been my dinner. To be fair, I felt considerably better so I had some water and went back to sleep. An hour-ish later I was puking up that water, although I didn't feel better afterwards this time. I crawled back into bed and attempted to wake up the Husband Man. He mumble some sort of apology and scooted closer to me, but didn't really wake up. I was on my own.

I threw up two or three more times, the last one after Husband Man woke up in the morning. By that point I had relocated to the couch because it was closer to the bathroom. I spent my entire Saturday lying on the couch, weak as a newborn. That wasn't fun.

One of the ladies that I visit teach had the flu, she and her husband had it at the same time, and she called me Thursday morning to ask if I'd watch her baby so she could have a nap. I'm sort of thinking that I was exposed to it then- especially since I talked to another lady in the ward who watched their baby too and she had the flu as well.

So Monday I'm starting to feel better, and then yesterday I got a cold sore, and then today Husband Man doesn't feel good. So the break is starting off fantastic!

I haven't gotten my grades yet--teachers haven't posted them--except for one teacher who posted and I guess I got a C- which really makes me upset but whatever. I know I have another C for sure, that's just how the class is, and I have a couple of B's and then a couple of A's. Overall, given the fact that I didn't want to do anything this semester, I think I'm alright with that. I just hope there aren't anymore surprise grades (unless they're good surprises).

Yeah. That's how it is now. I'm starting a list of fun things that I'm dead set on doing over break so that we don't have a repeat of last August where I just sat around the house and we didn't do anything fun. Once we're not sick we're going to party it up! (When Husband Man isn't at work anyways. But he's got a leadership position so he's getting lots of experience!)
