Oh Hai...

Remember me posting about being sick on Tuesday? Well when I feel sick I turn into a gigantic baby and wish for my mom to come and take care of me. I also always want something specific to eat. A McDonald's cheeseburger, some fries and a vanilla milkshake. On Tuesday I went between that meal and a Sonic burger with some tots on the side. I ended up settling for Chinese. Specifically Chicken and Broccoli and Chicken Fried Rice. Which ended my vegetarian eating a few days before the end of the month. I was upset about it for about 45 minutes (which was how long it took for the delivery guy to arrive) and then I got over it. I gave it a shot, realized it wasn't for me and I moved on.

Being under the weather, and falling off the veggie wagon kind of caused a junk food binge the last few days, but I am going to buckle down again starting Monday. I am going to allow myself a juicy burger from the grill tonight, and maybe some potato or pasta salad, but starting tomorrow I will be back to grilled chicken and fish and lots and lots of veggies.

I still feel like horse crap, but I realized on Wednesday morning that it isn't a cold, it is allergies. Allergies are much worse than a cold. A cold will go away. I am red in the nose, my face is swollen and my eyes are watering non-stop. Basically I am one hot mess. I have a hair appointment at noon today so I will go and be pampered by my wonderful stylist and maybe do some retail therapy at the mall while I am there. More than likely not though since it is Saturday and I hate the mall on Saturdays. It is more likely that I will hit up Cub for dinner items and head on home.

I hope everyone has a good weekend. Sorry for the woe is me post. Hopefully you all understand.

I hope you feel better soon! I totally understand about the allergies. I've had them my whole life and they are HORRIBLE. I have to be on medication most of the year so that when summer rolls around I can actually enjoy the outdoors.

I also have specific food requests when I am sick. Mostly spaghetti noodles with butter and parm, Ginger Ale, pizza (okay, not unusual since I could eat pizza for every meal), and Italian ice cups!

I'm trying really hard to eat better, but I dont think I could ever just go veggie. I am really into organic stuff right now though and just bought vanilla soy milk tonight. and actually? it's not bad! I dont think I'd be using it for cereal or anything, but it's good as a stand alone or with a good salad.
