Apologizing Again

DISCLAIMER:
By the way, though I claim to BE sick, I am just a wee bit sick. A WEE BIT. This doesn't warrant overseas phone calls or get-well cards or everyone sending me iron tablets and e-mails wondering if I'll answer back. I am merely explaining why I didn't write yesterday; it was a minor little incident and I am pretty sure it will clear up by the end of the week, or I will have been to the nurse.

In other words, I am handling it from here. Don't worry about me (you're all worrying now just because I said not to)

(Stop it. You're worrying. You're busy over there across the ocean biting your lips and wringing your hands in worry and fear over me...)

Now the entry:
Okay, I don't have much of an excuse for Monday, but I actually have a very good reason for not writing yesterday-I'm sick with something.

Everyone else seems to have the flu/cold/communicable disease of some sort, but me? I have weakness and dizziness. So much, in fact, that I had to leave Shakespeare class yesterday or risk becoming a heap on the Gold Room floor.

It hasn't really improved much since yesterday, but it is better. I think I'm going to wait and see how this shapes up today. Seems to be worse right before mealtimes and then gets better again about a half-hour afterward.

If there were any logical explanation for my spinny feelings, I would have thought of them. This dizziness is kind of annoying; not really debilitating. What's really driving me crazy is that I can't sort out where it's coming from-these are the common explanations for the problem.

Is it the weather (sky's clear.)
Is it me not eating? (no, I'm eating everything in sight trying to prevent the dizzy.)
Low iron? (Had burgers for lunch the other day. That ain't it.)
Low salt? (nope. The food is kind of bland here; it means me adding lots of salt on the food.)

And here I run out of explanations. Anyone got better ones?

(Your forehead's going to get permanent worry lines that way. Smile. :) I'm okay. Taking it easy and slow and eating and drinking and EVERYTHING.)

Cheers,
Bec
