There was a yucky bug.

So today, this Oklahoma princess was ill... with a yucky bug in my stomach. 

I woke up at 7:30 to get ready for work. However, when I sat up, my stomach twisted and I felt like I was going to be totally sick. I went to the restroom to see if I would get better once I moved around but sadly, that didn't work. Since I work in a food place, I knew that it would be bad for me and the resort guests if I went to work sick. So I decided to call in sick for the day and try to get better by tomorrow.

I called all four of my managers and left a message for two of them so I'm a little concerned. Either way, I get a point on my record for not going to work but I will take a point to make sure that no guests get sick. I'd prefer to get sick at home than at work and risk infecting a guest or co-worker. So after I called in at 7:30-ish, I grabbed my pillow, my stuffed animal, and two blankets before curling up on the living room couch. I bundled up and fell asleep. Florida went to work and then around 9:00, South Carolina got up and asked if I wanted anything. She was such a sweetheart and got some 7-Up for me to settle my tummy.

I slept until about noon and when I woke up, I felt more settled in my stomach but sitting up wasn't very comfortable until I had something to sip on. I made some ramen noodles to eat and stayed curled up in my blankets. I was so cold but felt better. As the day went along, I got to feel better but was still a little cold but that's because I get cold easily. 

So I've had a little bit of a battle with a stomach bug but I've dealt with it. I'm feeling much better and plan on heading into work tomorrow. I've got two days until my birthday! 22 years old! And the day after that, I've got an audition at Disney for characters so let's hope for the best. 

Anyway, I'll post again on Wednesday or Thursday to let everyone know what's been going on.
