The Flu.
It’s pretty official. I have the flu. I have been throwing up and all the other fun (but more gross) symptoms since like 11 last night.
I called the Advice Nurse at like 3AM but they are usually no help. They said I may have to go to the doctors today but we won’t know until they call me back. But in the course of a few conversations, we pretty much narrowed it down to food poisoning or the flu.
I called the girls to see if either one of them had any problems after dinner last night, but alas, they did not. And Sarah told me one of the kids I was chatting in close range with sick with the flu. So there you have it! Immune system compromised!
Luckily for us, tonight my Mom and Step-Dad and Brother are coming to our house for a low-key Christmas Eve involving movies, take out, presents and MATCHING PAJAMAS! So fun! And I get to stay in PJs all day. Which is good.
Brother is supposed to spend the night, but we will seeeee. Tomorrow we are going to make a nice breakie (if I can eat it.) and then hang out until 4 when it is time for MORE festivities at my Dad & Step-Mom’s House. YAY! That will be fun because all the Brandts are coming along as well. I like that the families can get along so well. It makes it much easier on Scott and I. (Sorry, thats selfish, but it’s hard to make 800 stops on the Holidays, so combining a few is awesome.)
I’m kinda sad that I had to flake on Julia this morning. Our tradition of going to Liguiria Bakery got all messed up because I was projectile vomiting while trying to get ready at 430 this morning! She had to go without me to San Francisco, but was nice enough to come deliver some focaccia to us after.
Can’t wait for the next few days either. It looks like the holidays will continue at least until Saturday night. It’s kinda Hanukkah like. Gifts start today and keep coming until Saturday! I know that sounds really bad. But whatever. I’m 6 years old at heart and broke…so new stuff sounds AMAZING!

Good luck Emiry.
(with the flu that is)
