All the cool kids are doing it…

Getting sick, that is.  I was supposed to run my first 10K this morning.  Instead, I’m snuffling and sneezing on the sofa.

I can feel the roots of my teeth when I walk.

Still, this is not going to stop me from going out with two of my best friends from high school this evening.  It has been a long time since I’ve had a girl’s night out.

They make Bendadryl martinis, right?

Darn, horrible timing, hope you have the energy to enjoy the visit with your friends.

Heck...I'm just glad to know I'm one of the cool kids being sick and all. Heck I might even be extra cool considering I'm going on day 8 of being sick!!

Boo on the 10K. I was going to run an 8K on Thanksgiving but I'm thinking that's not going to happen.

I'm also thinking of nixing the next 5K on Nov 15th. Eh!

Get well soon!! Have fun w/the girlies tonight!!

Not so sure that I would go.....I am still sick after 6 days!

Chief said...

Just shoot straight Vodka.

Pseudo said...

Hope you feel better sooner than soon. Drink that hot drink with whiskey in it ; -)

Hope you're feeling better enough for tonight!

Rosaria Williams said...

Uh. My goodness, Beth, you must need to see these folks. Gentle on yourself.

drinking instead of running, yeah, I can see that

Kulio said...

aw, drat! Glad it's not keeping you from the important stuff though - haha! Have a great time!

You can feel the roots of your teeth when you talk? I've never heard of that symptom.

You really need that Benadryl martini. That could be a lot of fun!

Joanna Jenkins said...

Oh no! Hang in there and get some rest.

I woke up sick yesterday too so I guess that makes me cool, huh? Hope you feel better soon, and had fun on your GNO!

Uggh. I hate it when we get sick when we have shit we really want to do. I guess there is never a "good" time to get sick. Get well, SOON!

Liz Mays said...

Feeling the roots of your teeth sounds most unpleasant! I hope you feel better soon. But, in the meantime, I hope you find just the right cocktail mix to forget about it for a while tonight!

Smart Mouth Broad said...

I'm late getting around. Wondering if you made it and if so just what does a benadryl martini taste like? Feel better soon.

If they don't, they should. And then feed them to people who want to run 10km....wth???!!

Chris said...

For my money, Nyquil Jello shots are the way to go.

Unknown said...

I kinda like the idea of Nyquil Jello shots too!

Get well!!!!
