Ugh

I think the cream went bad in State Street's cow, because I had a coffee yesterday and was sick to the point of throwing up without actually doing it all day. Like literally waves of nausea, camping out in the bathroom, the whole bit, short of actually heaving. Accursed esophageal sphincter of steel. I probably would have felt better faster if I had thrown up.

Nothing like food poisoning to reform a girl. I'm back off coffee with a vengeance. Ew.

So yeah, yesterday was a wash - overtired, sick, and generally feeling pitiful and sorry for myself all day. I managed to drag myself to belly dance since I'll be missing next week's class, and even though all the abdominal activity wasn't helping the nausea any I got to play with veils for the first time evar and more or less nail the crazy fast pace dance she's got us doing right now. Of course that was it - after that I went home, got into bed and moaned about my stomach for a while, took a long boiling hot shower, then got back into bed, this time with a very sympathetic sundart for comapny. I was out by ten and slept like a log until 8.

I feel a little better this morning. Not nauseous, but now my stomach just hurts, probably from not putting anything in it for 18 hours. I'd better go scrounge up some breakfast and a beverage that will keep me awake but not assrape my system.

Working pretty much until 11:30 tonight. Boo, hiss.

So much stuff going on in the next so often...

• Leyla Jouvana, "Queen of the Shimmys", and her husband/accompanist/drummer Roland are gonna be in town this weekend holding workshops and performances. Alas, I will not be around because I am going to
  
  
• SIGGRAPH. A week long orgy of computer graphics overload. I've wanted to go for years, and next week I get to go as one of the anzovin Studio Booth Babes.
  
  
• And then there's Pi-Con, where it's just been announced that I may get my chance to kneel abeyante in front of Jacqueline Carey and declare her queen of my universe. Or ok, maybe just sign my copies of the Kushiel series.
  

Now all I have to do is break the lottery and I'd be all set. :P
