The Mr. was gone all weekend, and I was stuck, without a car.
This turned out to be a blessing because I somehow managed to catch some sort of bug.
It’s scared me a bit as memories of my summer bout of pneumonia came swiftly back to mind.
I’ve taken it easy and did not even get out of my pajamas on Sunday.
I woke up this morning still feeling cruddy but needing to run a few errands. We’ll return to school tomorrow, and sick or not, I must be on my game for my students (or at least do a good job of faking it).
When I returned home, I found this little sight…
The thought had crossed my mind that I should move that box, but I’d ignored it.
Stupid me.
While I was out and about, I picked up a couple of items at Victoria’s Secrets. I just love getting their coupons in the mail!
Apparently, somehow they’d gotten my birthday information as being in October, so I had a $10 off of anything.
I walked around and kept thinking about how good Chicky smells whenever I hug her. She gets her body mists from VS, so I decided to look around.
The perfume was too expensive, but I found a travel size body mist, on sale, at the register…$10 instead of $15, which made if FREE for me, given that coupon I had…
I was one happy camper, let me tell you!
Still, though, I was feeling very sickly by the time I got home, and I had a headache that was looking like it was going to turn into a full-fledged migraine at any moment.
Thus, I am not sure what possessed me, but I decided, in one weak moment, to spray some of that mist on me.
I’m pretty sensitive to smells, so I should have known better.
I immediately started feeling worse, and my headache pain jumped from about a seven to a nine and a half.
Sheesh.
In that moment, I thought that instead of being “Very Sexy” as the body mist’s name implies, I was, in fact, “Very Stupid.”
For one who may, indeed, be on the verge of a sinus infection (hence the pressure in my head), this was one stupid move.
Sigh.
