Recovery

Thanks to the suggestion of my very wise boss, I took Wednesday off work, and spent the majority of the day in bed, recovering.  Treated myself to a delicious baby spinach-roasted garlic-feta cheese gourmet pizza and Caesar salad ($27.94).  

Thursday and Friday were work-filled and went by suprisingly slowly.  On Friday I splurged on Starbucks ($8.75), squeezed in a doc appt ($25 + $20 prescriptions), picked up some groceries ($29.54), and that evening promptly started sniffling, sneezing, and getting sick.

Spent this past weekend taking it very easy, drinking lots of tea, and sleeping, watching DVDs, and getting caught up on some work ($20.23 on tea, lozenges, soup, etc).  Went out on Sunday morning in search of an internet connection ($14 at Tryst for brunch), and finally found one at Starbucks for $3.99 for 2 hours (pretty much a rip-off when combined with the nastiest drink I have ever had - the Vanilla Rooibus Tea Latte- $4.02).

Back at work, and ready to grind out this week, which ends with a Board meeting where I'll be giving a 30 minute presentation - holy crap!

Total for Recovery from Inauguration: $153.47

So glad you are back and that, though sick, you are enjoying living in a city where Obama is leading the pack. How incredible! I'm so happy you got to be there for the inauguration! What a cool, memorable, amazing experience.

Joe and I are hoping to make it to DC together this fall -- it's finally a place we feel we can visit, after a long time away. Hooray!!

xoxo

PS feel better, you poor thing
