From Thriller to Chills and Fevers

The day was supposed to be awesome.

This was the plan: Sleep in, work out for a couple hours, do some yoga, enjoy the nice weather, get some work done on Travelated and then, to top it off, go to an amazing Thriller event outside the planetarium. A huge group of people were to be taught the Thriller dance and simultaneously perform it with other groups around the world.

This is what happened: I woke up with a serious fever, my entire body hurt and I was having hot/cold flashes. So, I went to the fruit stand, shivering in the 67 degree weather to buy some stuff. Then, I went to the video store I have tried to go to a few times, signed up for a membership finally and felt stupid seeing the guy who is always really nice and chatty with me as I stumbled around, half coherent, looking for “Blazing Saddles”, having no idea what the Spanish translation would be. I then stopped and picked up an ice cream bar for my next hot flash and went to the pharmacy for medicine. I then laid in my bed covered in blankets (Occasionally ripping them off when I started sweating) and half ass working and watching movies. My friends went to the awesome Thriller event without me.

I watched Blazing Saddles and the second I turned it off I realized all i could remember was there was a black man who tricked white people. Yep, that’s all I got. Thank you, fever-induced delusion. Time for more sleep.
