I think the only highlight of my day so far is that I get to stay home from school. The reason why, however, is why my day sucks so far. I'm sicker than dog, to use at common cliche. I woke up this morning about 20 minutes before my alarm went off with a headache that felt like someone was trying to pound a nail through my head. I still have it now, though not quite as intense. I had taken an asprin, showered, then collapsed back into bed cause I wasn't feeling well and figured more sleep would help. A little past 9 I woke up, brushed my wet hair and put it in a ponytail, went back to my room, then had to rush back into the bathroom to throw up. I think I slept for awhile until about 11. Then I went up to the school to leave some books in my locker for a friend to find them, and got a book I had left yesterday before going home. Not even 5 minutes after that I threw up again. I felt better afterwards, so I sat in the hottub in hopes that it would help my stommach settle a bit. Didn't work well. I went back inside and feel asleep for another two or so hours, then got up again cause a flower delivery person had brought something from my dad for my birthday. I think I tried to doze for another 20 minutes after that, then gave up and wandered around the house cause my stomach was upset again. I just threw up again maybe 5 minutes ago. I brushed my teeth after that time besides the usual washing my mouth out with water. Figured I'd sit and write this down while my stommach is still a little calm, though I don't think it'll last long. Wish me luck for a happier birthday, but I'm just gonna avoid food or drink for a little while. Better to dry heave than throw up stare ..................
