shitty business!

I think I must have eaten too much of the wrong food. I'm down with major food poisoning. It's strange how he had diarrhoea for only a few times after dinner on xmas while I been poo-ing non stop for many days. Damn the curry fish head. Yesterday, my stomach must have been further aggravated by the intake of the oily tempura like food served before my meetings and next thing I knew, I got the chills, started shivering uncontrollably and the fact that it rained cats and dogs didn't help at all. I was tempted to pile on another jacket but I didn't wana look like a rice dumpling. To make matters worse, I had no idea how my finger got a deep cut. All I remembered was the blood rushing out and I was screaming in pain when I ran it under the water. I rushed home to get a good sleep and this morning, I was down with severe abdominal pain and everytime I went to the loo, a free flow of stool was dispensed. I felt really shitty and had to get an MC to account for my absence from work today. Wonder how many days of leave / MC I've taken since my hospitalisation took up a hell lot of that.

It's strange how all my illnesses are seasonal. I always get some kinda major illness at the year end and my doc is probably sick of seeing me so often too. But I'm bringing him good business, considering each trip is $50.

Well, xmas was great, had a weekend getaway and my other half gave me a book filled with all his written thoughts and feelings. Best of all, he gave me the strangest but really most amusing gift - a toy robot called robosapien. It's really expensive, never knew that such toys can cost $150. Gee.. it is really cute as it grooves to some cheesy music and does strange caveman-like actions and sounds. He believes in giving such stuff now and then as he believes that there must be an element of fun in our relsp. It was really a great xmas which was marred occasionally by my bad bout of diarrhoea. I certainly hope I get well fast coz tomorrow's dinner with my friends and him and they will kill me if I back out as they have waited for so long just to get us out. In fact, I suspect I will lose their friendship. We are supposed to go to gorkha grill which sells nepalese food but coz it's gonna be spicy, I gotta cancel the plan to go there and get to soup restaurant instead or else I will literally be in deep shit if I eat spicy food. Well, it's not a bad choice anyway, it's got great chinese food though I'll be missing out on the lovely sweet potato leaves and samsui chicken! Dammit! I've gotta settle for porridge for now... At this rate I'm falling sick or getting all sorts of strange illnesses, I'm gonna lose weight faster than exercising at the gym..

Wish me luck in recovering from this nasty food poisoning. I definitely don't wanna ruin my dinner tomorrow and the day after at Jaan... :(
