Then after a day off we had 12 noon session. this should be ok, I had a good night's sleep, a good breakfast. But no. It was as if I had gotten a big shot of Loserene. I couldn't do anything well. I threw up. Before I hurled I was aware it was coming for a while. I was Vincent Donofrio in Full Metal Jacket. I was close to tears. It was a small class and the energy was different, more whiny. I ran (or more correctly stumbled) into a rope at eye level and cut my eyelid. While learning to leap hurdles I banged up my shin.

After we left I stopped and got a Vitamin Water with B and electrolytes. Didn't help. Got another one. Didn't help. Made it to the bus station but no bus for a half hour so I sat down for the historically traditional beverage of hard workers - a tall frosty brew. Finally, something that successfully perked me up.

Fresh pasta lasagna for dinner. Ice for my swelling eye. And more abuse at 7:30am tomorrow.
