I woke up today a bit more tired that usual, not from lack of sleep but it seems there is this incessant bug that I just can't seem to shake. Off and on for the month of January I've had this feeling of weakness or it seems I've been drained or just plain tired. On top of that I've had several fevers, a cough that I just can't shake and today my throat started to hurt again. I thought it went away by Sunday night, but today it returned again. Damn these viral infections. I'm thinking I need to go to the doctor again even though I'm not crippled sick; it's probably better to go in for preventive maintenance rather than let this catch up and knock me back down again, right?
It doesn't help that today is Valentines Day. I've received my share of sweet little text messages wishing me a happy day, and sent my share too. The CEO of the company I started working for ordered ½ dozen roses for all the ladies, so I have some pretty flowers on my desk. To top that off everyone is sharing sweets; you know the traditional chocolates, cakes, cookies etc. I don't usually indulge in these savory goodies myself, but if they are there I will consume them. So not long after eating the sugar overload ~ my body goes into toxic sugar shock and there I was at work, with a headache and feeling like all I wanted to do was crash.
Kinda reminds me of when I first moved to the city and lived with my aunt. Their families' diet is so much different that mine, full of beef and there is plenty of sweets to eat around the house. I kept wondering why I was so tired and then it hit me one day. I don't normally eat THAT much sugar, hence the always being tired and crashing.
