Crash and Burn Girl

I've spent the last 2,5 days in bed with migraine and horrible "body cold" i.e. not sniffly or sneezing as you would with a head cold but shivery, aches in muscles and joints and a little bit of a temperature spike. It hasn't been nice at all but all that's left now is a bit of dizziness so I guess I'd better go back to work or the Dragon Lady (not Thatcher - who'd be a big softie compared to the "lady" who's my boss) might rip my intestines out for not being tethered to my desk the way she likes us to be - we're nothing but slaves...

Well, other than that everything is just fine and dandy. Am not at all stressed for having been unable to use the last 3 evenings to pack and clean. Nope, not at all. Am cool as a cucumber. My pulse is about 16/minute... Ooops, sorry it should have been 216/minute to be a wee bit more accurate. And that's my resting pulse.

Crash and burn - that's what will happen and I really should try and calm down and not let anything raise my pulse. It's simply not good for me or b**y but I am really trying but what's worse is that I get a little bit more stressed when de-stressing doesn't work. It's Sod's Law. Boyfriend is good though and picks me up when I mess up/forget something or shut down.

I'm thinking yoga or an elephant-sized sedative might be the way forward.
