Yuck

I’m officially sick.  And not with that little cold I was fighting.  I felt a little nauseous when I went to bed last night and it just got worse and worse until I woke up in the middle of the night with an urgent need to get to the bathroom.  My body did it’s very best to remove absolutely everything from my GI track as I watched the sky outside the window turn slowly from black to blue.  Finally, I was falling asleep on the bathroom floor so I dragged myself back to bed – with a trash can.  After a short snooze the trash can turned out to be a good idea.  Fortunately, Keith, Nahum and I were the only ones in our room.  Keith woke up and asked if I needed anything.  Groggily, I refused and went back to sleep.  I insisted on staying in bed when it was time for breakfast even though we’re supposed to be out of the room from 10 – 12.  Keith talked the cleaning crew into letting me sleep and sleep I did.  I’ve pretty much slept the whole day through.  A few minutes ago, I finally felt up to getting up and getting dressed.  I’m still very tired though, probably since I haven’t eaten for almost 24 hours.

Keith and Nahum went out to busk and bought us bus tickets to Portsmouth, where we’re planning on catching a ferry to France.  We’re leaving tomorrow and I hope that I’ll feel up to traveling.  I don’t know what it is that I have.  I’m really hoping that it’s not the flu.  Maybe it’s food poisoning.  I took some pepto bismol earlier and that seems to have helped.  Hopefully tomorrow will be better!
