Frumpy Friday | Catching a Cold, Pizza, and Caffeine Issues...

Today was supposed to be a light, quick day at work today, and then it dragged on into 9.5hrs... And all day long I just wanted to get over with it, to crawl back in bed and get some rest.

Ever since Monday, I’ve been riding this crazy caffeine rollercoaster. I don’t tolerate caffeine very well, but occasionally I like to take a gamble and have a coffee sometimes.

For some reason coffee doesn’t affect me sometimes, but when it does, it’s terrible. The worst was back in college when I drank a cup of coffee and couldn’t sleep for two days. Talk about miserable! It also makes my stomach hurt a lot when it’s like that which just piles on even more misery!

So all week I’ve been feeling very tired, and in the morning I have to be alert to drive for work, so I got a few energy drinks to perk me up. I’ve never really had a problem with the caffein content of energy drinks, but I guess I picked up an extra caffeinated kind because it just magnified the torture!

At least now it’s Friday, and I got a nice custom pizza, but now I feel stuffed and my stomach is making me feel more miserable. Stupid stomach!

And to top it all off, I got a sore throat yesterday and I’ve been fighting it all day with cough drops. They’re sugar free cough drops though and if I take too many of them too quickly, they give me bad stomach problems (what a surprise!).

So basically I just want to lie in bed forever, take some sugar free cough syrup and sleep really well and long tonight...

Yes, that’s the outline of a clothes iron burner into the rug... I’m surprised they didn’t burn the place down, though I’m sure it contributed to them being kicked out!
