rough week.

March 26 8:19pm. waiting for the margarita to ware off before going to the ice rink.
there's a fancy mexican restaurant just down the street from us. we always complained that their food is a bit too expensive (for what you get) and the beer list is.. well.. there is no beer list. we recently discovered, however, that they make pretty damn good margaritas (thanks O'briens!) -- for what they lack in beer, they make up with taquila.... anyway, we went there after work for light dinner and a margarita, which was very good.
later on i drove to the ice rink. i decided to try ice skating again - used to do it a lot when i was in highschool (i admit, i was never very good, but i tried really hard). i figured it would be a good workout (which it is!) and also fun enough to make me do it on a regular basis. the place is open for public only a few hours a week (most of the time they have classes (chugim) and ice-hockey practices.)
12:27am. pretty much destroyed and going to bed.
ice skating was very intense and all my muscles hurt. especially my legs...

March 27 10:15am. still pretty much destroyed.
my legs are still sore from all that skating... i guess... i figured i was just going to complain all day.
despite being sore, i went to have dinner with a friend and then to pick up our pottery stuff from the pottery studio. i totally didn't expect it to be ready, since the guy who runs the place is very easy-going. he would make a good spaniard on siesta time.
that night i started feeling a bit of an itch in my throat... :(

March 28. i realize i might have the thing that's been going around lately :(.
some people in the department came down with something. maybe not the same thing, but im pretty sure i got it too... i made the mistake of going to work anyway, although all i wanted was to crawl back in bed. ben took me home early, and i started feeling a bit better, so we decided to not cancel our dinner plans with the new neighbors. (we had sushi and talked too much). after dinner, they came by to see our apartment - they live just below us, but they set up their place completely different then us. they also have tons more stuff, cause they used to live in the suburbs. despite my many hints they wouldn't go away, until eventually i said that i need to lay down.

March 29. sore throat and an ugly cough.
ben is my angel and he takes care of me :]

Yesterday. still sick. blahhhh.
feeling really bad. spent the day on the couch under a dawn blanket, and was too miserable to even play super mario. before going to bed (at 10) i had a shot of liqueur instead of cough syrup (alcohol is one of the active ingredients in syrup, and i don't want the antihistamines that much, so figured it might be just as well).

Today. my butt is sore from sleeping so long and sitting on the couch. i was just reading my emails when i spilled coffee all over the home-computer keyboard. luckily it wasn't the laptop. the keyboard was filled with (pretty good) coffee, the carpet was stained, and everything was just a mess. now we need to get a new keyboard... and make more coffee.

i'm still feeling sick, but i think i'm finally getting better. i got to. cause i'm sick of being sick!!!
