Just when I thought I was getting better....BAM! I get hit big time with another round of an unknown disease =P I'm proud to say though that I got 12 hours of sleep last night. (Nyquil is a very potent sedative) I'm speculating that I have the flu...but we'll see what the doctor says on Friday.

Speaking of doctors, health care really sucks here! It took me a whole week to find a doctor who's taking new patients and my health insurance. When I called to make an appointment, I was transferred everywhere EXCEPT to the doctor I wanted to see. So finally when I get a hold of the doctor's office, they say I have to wait a week for the next available appointment. A WEEK? "Fine," I say. I just wanna know what's wrong with me and get it fixed. But right before the receptionist hangs up she says, "I hope you don't die before we can see you!" What the...that comment might've been funny to her. But to a person who really feels like she's dying, it's not a laughing matter.

Most people lose weight when they get sick...not me. The following might explain why. For the past few days I haven't been able to swallow anything solid because my throat hurt so much. So I've been on a strict dietary regimen of melted chocolate and ice cream =) I've been sucking on hershey kisses and M&Ms and eating ice cream for dinner for the past 3 days.

Isabel mentioned that carbs are a girl's best friend...It's true! So soothing and comforting =) I bet 99.9% of my carbs come from chocolate.
