A Sick Kennedy is an Unhappy Kennedy...

I used to be the sick girl.  If someone who worked in the building next to me got a cold, I’d have it within the hour.  I was sick at LEAST once a month and had to do double shots of Nyquil as I had built up such an immunity to it’s sleepy ways.  However, since I’ve been eating better and exercising, I haven’t been sick.  Really.  Like, at all.  So yesterday I start to feel that scratch in my throat and I know the evil bug has made it’s way into my system, and I’m pissed! 


I left work yesterday and was in bed by 11:30.  Dr GTL made sure I took some Vitamin A and some other concoctions he whipped up for my health, but I was sure to take a healthy pull of the Nyquil. I woke up sometime around 3ish to an empty house not exactly sure where I was.   I got about 1/2 a bowl of Ramen down and was right back to bed.  Woke up again at around 10:30pm and then was up and down from midnight until the alarm started  screaming at 3am.  Can I just say Nyquil gives me some wacked out dreams.  Straight up weird stuff.  I really should write them down, but I never do and I’m left with a vision in vapor of what I thought I saw.  Dreams are funny like that, if you don’t take the time to remember they are gone in an instant.  I remember the main players in the dream and a few locations, but other than that it’s gone.  So strange.  I’m looking forward to more Nyquil-inspired dreams in an hour or two. 
Needless to say, I had 1/2 bowl of Ramen and a handful of vitamin A yesterday and that’s it.  Today, 3 crackers and more A.  Ugh.
