Sick in the City

Well, I wish I could sit here and tell all about my fabulous last few days in the city that never sleeps...but pretty much all I've done is slept thanks to a fever and some sort of virus. However, I did leave my cave once in a while to see some family, so why not share what I did in my few hours of drug-induced freedom.

On Wednesday, I got myself out of bed to enter the lottery for Wicked tickets. Unfortunately, that was a big fail but the day got better when I had lunch in the financial district with my cousin Jacquie (must go back, the most amazing lobster sandwich ever!) and it was great just catching up. I got to meet her adorable puppy and I was pretty darn proud of myself for making it from Times Square to Rector Street without stopping in any other boroughs. By Thursday, the fever was upon me but I still got to meet up with my cousin Justin for lunch and a trip to Century 21 downtown. I wish I felt better and could have spent the rest of the day with him, but by 3 I was ready to pass out..which I proceeded to do immediately when I got home. After a nice 3 hour nap, I grabbed dinner with Ricki, took some Advil PM and slept another 10.

Which brings me to today. I decided sitting in bed watching movies was just as unproductive as going to see a movie, so I found the closest theater and finally saw Sex and the City 2. Definitely not as good as the first and a little long, but still entertaining. I'm praying that chugging EmergenC and doing all of this resting will have me back to health by the time I have to start working next week/possibly in time for me not to miss out on this entire weekend. Maybe if the NYC weather wasn't having a bipolar meltdown of going from 95 degrees to 65, I wouldn't be in this achy mess.
