And Then I Stayed Sick

[thepnutgallery]

Obviously, staying in the night before was the right decision. I was touched that so many people had expressed concern and offered to get me anything I needed. It was a sweet thought, but ultimately unnecessary, as I get my own things. If I'm not willing to get out of bed to get it, I obviously don't need it that badly.

Surfed Facebook most of the day, keeping up with the Superbowl via posts. Mostly, though, I slept. And sweated. And slept. The towel I had laid down was sopping wet, so I grabbed another one. The first one I fumbled for was Chip's, from his Fire Island swim. It's softer than my other towels, so it doubled as a teddy bear.
