somehow sunday night i became violently ill. in between disgusting bodily functions in the last two days, i've been asleep contantly. the doctor today told me i caught some kind of stomach flu and that i need to keep sleeping and drinking. i haven't eaten anything in two days-- so maybe that means i'll lose some weight. as romy and michelle once profoundly said in their movie, 'mono was the best thing that happened to me in high school'

but seriously, very seriously, this has been a near-death experience and i would never have wanted to go through this. it's just been awful...
