So, late last week I found myself "under the weather". Actually, I think that is a bit of an understatement. I was sick, y'all. As in, I was seriously contemplating going to the emergency room, which is something that, those of you who know me well, know that I just don't do. It wasn't the "I ate something bad" kinda sick - it was the kind where every breath burned and made me cough, and I just couldn't get enough air to breath no matter what I tried.
I did something else I never do - I canceled an event that I was supposed to DJ. That event was Naked Night at Exile. To be fair, Lioness had sent out a notice earlier saying she was also ill, and I logged in briefly to ask if a host replacement had been found. I didn't want to cancel if one had. But, after hearing that no one had stepped up, and after the encouragement of Master for me to take the night off, I decided to do just that. Master forwarded some cash to my Paypal so that I could go and get the meds I needed, because I was between paydays, and with my nasty-tasting liquid salvation in hand, and under a warm, fluffy blanket, I curled up on the couch and watched some shows with Master - a new series he found called "Recruits", about getting onto the police force in New South Wales, Australia. Let me just state, for the official record, that I could not do it. Wow. We've been continuing to watch it after I get off of work in the early morning hours (USA time), before bed.
To everyone who sent me warm fuzzy best wishes, thank you so much. :) They helped, if by just making me smile to know that you guys care so much! To those of you who wanted to slam me for canceling Naked Saturday ... meh. :) I've got better things to worry about than your opinions - like, my health for example!
I am feeling better now though - still not 100%, but I am getting there! And I am looking forward to seeing you all again at my DJ shifts on Friday and Saturday this week. I missed DJing for you, and just seeing you all in general!
