Monday on the Couch

I will try to update in the next couple days with some photos from our trip this weekend and let you know some more about that, we had a great time.

Right now I'm quite sleepy and I just wanted to stop by to say hello to you all and let you know that I miss you dearly.

I suspect that I got food poisoning from an ever so sketchy Chinese takeaway place on the drive back yesterday as I have had a terrible day and a half of feeling like death. So I stayed home today and successfully hid from my responsibilities underneath my thick blanket.

Anway, I'm resolving to start taking better care of myself. It's no wonder I'm sick, I've been abusing my poor body since I arrived. I need to sleep, exercise, and study more. I need to go out, drink, and eat junk food less. So that is the plan. I kind of wish I could stay home again tomorrow because the rest has been wonderful and I really want to make sure that this thing goes away, but I ought to go to my classes (only 2 though) and then I have my appointment with the hand specialist which I shouldn't miss because if I don't get a proper brace on this finger soon it might mean surgery (yikes!) so send out good thoughts that I might survive the day.

I hope you all had a great weekend, though, and I think that if you didn't, or if you're sick like me, you might want to listen to "Sweet Darlin'" by She & Him because it's a cute little song and it might make you feel better.

Also, congratulations to my friends Drake and Jenna who got married this weekend, and also to my dear friend Caitlin who finished her summer in Yemen with stunning success. Lots of love to you all.
