Yesterday I put on a smidge of makeup (concealer, eyebrows, eyeliner, mascara), proper clothing, and Left The House! To go to the doctor's office for a B12 + Other Stuff shot, to help me get over this Death Blarg Plague thing.

And I *am* getting over it. Slowly, but it's happening. I'm not constantly coughing and sniffling anymore, and my throat doesn't feel like I'm constantly swallowing shards of glass. The main thing I'm still dealing with is the exhaustion. Like, sleeping 11 hours a night, then maybe having a nap later -sort of exhaustion. Ugh. But today I have felt well enough to do a couple of loads of laundry, and am making a tiny bit of progress on writing. My big goal is to be well enough to go to Noc-Noc on Friday night for [livejournal.com profile] sistawendy's transition party. I'm not going to dance, because that way lies exhaustion and a potential relapse, but by God, I AM GETTING DRESSED UP AND GOING OUT ON FRIDAY NIGHT.

My other goals are to put up and decorate the tree, and make gingerbread bats. I don't know if those are going to happen, because I am under orders from the doctor, the Stroppy One, and [livejournal.com profile] cupcakegothmom (hi Mom!) to not overdo things. I really WANT to do those things, because it's December 9th, for goodness sake, and I'd like to start feeling some holiday spirit ANY TIME NOW. But I don't want holiday spirit at the expense of, oh, being healthy and able to do things.
Yesterday's SeaGoth Rummage sale was fun, if rather low in attendance. But it was a great opportunity for socializing!

Unfortunately, socializing means talking. Guess who ripped her throat up and lost her voice? Guess who also slept until noon today?

::insert eye-rolling, cranky stamping of feet, and coughing here::

I thought my voice was better after the epic amount of sleep, but the Stroppy One says he can hear it getting croakier and croakier as I try to talk. Swell. Today is going to be about flopping on the couch and drinking a lot of Bengal Spice tea (loaded with clove and cinnamon, yum!) with honey. My plans for today HAD included doing laundry and taking photos of all the things left from the sale, but I'm just clear-headed enough to realize what a bad idea that would be.
Guess who has come down with The Ick? Go on, guess.

If you answered "Both you AND the Stroppy One", you are correct!

So, no event for me tonight, dammit.
