Entry twelve - 9 January 2000

Oh woe is me… my head hurts and I can't keep food down. I am never, never, never drinking again. The one wholesome thing about last night is that we walked for blocks and blocks up hill to a desirable bar and my calves are feeling very toned. My star sign, according to the ever insightful excite.com.au horoscope, says this:

"You seek tranquility in a world that seems to be anything but tranquil. Unplug yourself from the overload of information racing through the air. Find somewhere solitary and spend some time in meditation. Silence your thoughts by naming them and letting them pass by. By quieting your mind, you will tap into a deeper sense of peace. Don't let yourself be talked into doing anything you don't want to do today. Spend as much time as you can alone and blanketed in silence."

Solitary? Blanketed? I am so obviously being told to go back to bed.

Things that trigger nausea today:

1.The colour green

2.Fast movement in Special-K's car

3.Small having strawberry jam and cream cheese on toast for breakfast (even writing this makes me retch)

4.The smell of my cigarette soaked clothes from last night (the worst!)

5.Small's spaniel licking my foot

6.The mention of a possibility of a roast lunch

7.A large blob of butter on my toast

at least this is not as bad as one time when I couldn't even go into direct sunlight without having to dash for the bathroom, hand over mouth.

I'm sorry, my little squirmy liver. Thankyou Big-P for buying me raisin toast and making me peppermint tea.

If we can afford to, we're thinking of going away to Hamilton Island for a couple of weeks r&r. It looks so nice… mmmm. I have never been a beach/resort type, I can't even swim, I wouldn't know how to begin to eat a lobster, etc. but the whole idea of lying around in the sun, reading bad books and paddling in amazing blue water is irresistible.

Check out andreas lindkvist's site. Such cute picks, especially the stuff he did for we the shoppers site.
