In other updates, Paris sucked again, especially the first 4 hours. I arrived and stinky lady wasn't there, found her student who had no idea I was coming and then went to get re-acclimated with the microscope. I was just getting into the swing of things when I clicked on the wrong button and the microscope stage advanced toward the objective, crashing the objective into my slide and shattering it....think accidentally backing your car into a garage door after putting your car in Park... I don't know what retard set up this microscope, but in no way should that have ever happened... these things have sensors!! Then, an hour later, the lightbulb blew out, the student didn't know how to fix it, so I went shopping the next morning while stinky fixed it. thankfully, I knew what to expect this time, so I was prepared to be by myself and got to go shopping!
-The windowless room in Paris...this is where I was stuck for hours at a time
Then unfortunately in the middle of the night Saturday, Joe got sick with a 24-hour stomach bug so he was 'poopy' all day Sunday and we just hung out in the apartment. Of course, then I got the same thing, but worse Monday at bedtime... I've never been so sick and sleep-deprived in my life....it was horrible... of course, Joe got to sleep through the whole evening....
Carolyn at 10:30pm: I have a lot of gas and that 'I'm going to vomit' feeling in the pit of my stomach. I think I got what you had.
Joe: If you do get sick, I can't help you 'cause I just took my sleeping pill and you know I can't get up once I've taken that.
So, there I was vomiting and diahrrea-ing by myself, sleeping on the bathroom floor mat and crawling to and from the bathroom and the living room all night. Finally I kicked the bedroom door in at 7:30am and said, 'You need to get up now. I'm vomiting green liquid, I think it's just bile, but I need you to look online to see if I need to go to the hospital.' Oh my god. I wouldn't wish this on anybody....it was awful. Once Joe was awake he was great and got me some Gatorade to drink (and subsequently throw up) throughout the day. He even came home a couple times to check on me...how sweet ;) I think he felt guilty for giving it to me. And as usual, I push myself too hard and I should have just stayed home all day on Wednesday as well, but I went to work in the afternoon to finish up an abstract for my advisor anyway...I'm an idiot. I feel much better now, thank goodness.
This weekend, who knows...all i know is that if I haven't watched the season premiere of Lost by the end of today, I will be watching it tomorrow.
