At the airport 2 full hours before flight. I am so wound up, but avoided actually being sick this morning (travel anxiety has been that bad the last few years). Once I calm down enough I have the guidebook to read and I will map out potential schedules for Sunday afternoon and Monday. Planning is soothing.

Mac stayed up most of the night so I expect him to crash once wer are on the international flight out of Chicago.

Ugh, have a scrape of unknown origin on my calf that now appears to have gotten infected (ANGRY red diamond-shaped discoloration, minor touchiness). I'm gonna give it the weekend with careful cleaning and Neosporin, but if it doesn't look better by Monday I'm going to see about it at Urgent Care.

Travel~ma and health ~ma, Buffistas!

I'm still sick but feeling better. I need to eat, not hungry, don't want to cook or leave house. Thinking of caving and getting pizza.

Good call, Matt. I hope it yields to home treament.

Safe travels, msbelle!

Wishing people much betterness

and I cut off all my hair and got purple streaks. I can't belive how happy the purple is making me

awesome, beth!

I feel terrible. This cold will not go away. I am slowly cleaning by doing small tasks until I get dizzy and need to sit down.

I hate hurts that don't even come with an explanation. Hope it clears up quickly, Matt.

I'm sorry about all the other illnesses and allergies, too. I gave in and started hitting the Claritan yesterday, myself.

I am flopping on the couch watching Bar Rescue in between tasks. I have beef in the crock pot. Laundry is going. Now that the bathroom is clean, I can take a long, hot shower.

I'm still dizzy, but not as bad as yesterday. Antihistamines seem to be helping, though they've also made me sleepy. I made it through a trip to the grocery, but I might fall asleep in my dinner plate.
