an overcast day, some perfect slippers + a book.

I don't know why, but just as the sun was about to peek through my dreary days of all day sickness and bring me relief (I had a few pretty good days wherein I did not throw up & only had the late afternoon/evening torture), I start feeling really bad all over again.

Last night was a bad night. Mental note to self: never, ever, ever eat Chinese food again. Ever. Sure you may think its close enough to Thai food that it will go (and stay) down, but it's not. And it won't.

Also: as a general rule, if it did not taste reasonably good going down, guess what? It won't coming back up either. Death to the Sesame Chicken. A plague on your houses!

Today the skies have given us the first truly overcast day since we got here. Not just fog, overcast. I stayed in bed and napped off and on all day. It was more enjoyable to know the world around me was not bathed in sunshine & light while I was holed up inside.I saw these custom made slippers on the blog, Little Brown Pen and fell in love. So cozy and stylish. Check them out here.

I'm in week 9. Only 3 more weeks 'til week 12 + I am hoping all you people out there have not been lying about it going away around then.PS. If anyone is looking to get lost in a good book, I am only halfway through this one, but can recommend it so far. Ignore the Thomas Kinkade-esque cover + pick it up.

SO sorry you are feeling puky. Ugh. That is miserable. I thus far, have not hurled. But, I am so perpetually tired I feel like I should find a cave and hibernate through the first trimester. I think I am about a week and half behind you. This is going to be a fun summer!
