Jan. 10th, 2010 09:43 amI feel like shit right now. No, really. This really started on Friday evening, although I felt somewhat odd/crappy on Thursday, too. My head hurts, but not like a migraine. I've been dizzy, feeling like the room is spinning, but not light-headed the way I sometimes get. My stomach hurts, but not like I ate something bad. My back and neck ache. I can't tell if I had a fever or not at any point. I feel oddly weak.
I do NOT have a sort throat, sniffles, or anything that I typically associate with having a cold. This doesn't feel like a cold. I just feel like shit.
I do not have TIME for this. I'm leaving for Boston (going to Arisia, the regional sci-fi/fantasy convention) on Thursday. This is one of my favorite conventions of the year. I have shit to do. I have to go to the gym. I have errands to run. I have costumes to tweak. But I barely want to get off the sofa. WTF, self? WTF?
I'm going to take a shower and drag my ass out of the house. I'm going to do some errands. Pick up some necessities for my trip. Going to go to church (because I will be gone for the next TWO weekends, and I seriously love going to my church - we've a very unique congregation). Going to come back and do a minor carpentry repair on my dresser drawer. Going to start packing costumes. Going to do laundry. Going to get my ass to the gym (yes, I am - I MUST). Not going to accept excuses from myself.
But shit, I just want to curl up on the couch with a blanket, a cup of tea, the remote control, and a marathon of Star Trek episodes and rest the way I used to when I was a kid. Instead, I'm gonna do a meme, have a light breakfast, and try to make myself useful.

If I were a month, I'd be August, because that's my month.
If I were a day of the week, I'd be Saturday, because everything happens on Saturdays.
If I were a time of day, I'd be midnight - the end of the old and the beginning of the new.
If I were a planet, I'd be Mercury, because I am small, swift, and fiery.
If I were a sea animal, I'd be a dolphin, because they are intelligent and playful but still devious hunters.
If I were a direction, I'd be south, because I am fire.
If I were a piece of furniture, I'd be a futon because it has so many uses. Not one of those cheap metal ones, either.
If I were a liquid, I'd be mercury.
If I were a tree, I'd be a yellow birch because they're not very common, they stand out golden in the forest, and their leaves and twigs smell like wintergreen. Very unique, very beautiful, very noble trees.
If I were a flower, I'd be an apple blossom - understated but fruitful.
If I were a kind of weather, I'd be a thunderstorm.
If I were a musical instrument, I'd be a piano (because I play them) or a tin whistle.
If I were a color, I'd be red.
If I were an emotion, I'd be determination.
If I were a fruit, I'd be a pineapple.
If I were a sound, I'd be rolling thunder.
If I were an element, I'd be iron.
If I were a car, I'd be a Nissan 370Z.
If I were a food, I'd be Vietnamese pho, because it looks so simple, but it's far more complex than it appears. And can be very spicy. :D
If I were a place, I'd be the mountains of New Hampshire.
If I were a taste, I'd be dark chocolate. Very dark.
If I were a scent, I'd be the forest after a thunderstorm.
If I were an object, I'd be a Swiss Army knife.
If I were a body part, I'd be a hand.
If I were a facial expression, I’d be an enigmatic smile.
If I were a song, I'd be Defying Gravity.
