Man plans....

and God gives you the stomach flu. I had a full day planned and woke up sick in middle of the night. I didn't make it to externship didactics but I cabbed uptown to do the assessment as it took months to get this woman to show up. I then cabbed home and spent the day on the couch with Gatorade. I rescheduled meeting to set up new research study for tomorrow and we are rescheduling book club meeting and am meeting new classmate for drinks on Wednesday. I was really upset to miss the training but I could not move at that point in the day and everything else can still get done. I was so bored at home. There was nothing on TV and I just wanted to be productive again (I did get some stuff done over the computer) but it was nice that I was bored, it was nice that I didn't want to be sick- I just wanted to get back to my life. In the past, I have wanted to be sick and have stayed in the sick mode for longer than necessary as a way to escape or regress but I don't want to escape and I want to progress. I am hopeful that I will be better tomorrow and can go back to the gym and work and have lunch with Sigi and research meeting and then dinner with Gracie and Elle and Tori and then date with Wally. I am going to go to sleep and hope that I wake up feeling like myself. Myself is good.
