If there's something I've learned about having a winter birthday, it's that with the cold, blustery air, flu season comes blowing in. Unfortunately I didn't get to really enjoy my birthday because I woke up with an awful cold. I somehow managed to get to the gym but I only lasted about 5 minutes on the treadmill before I had to call it quits on my cardio session due to not being able to breathe. When I got to work a few hours later, I headed to the Doctor's office for some meds. The Doctor insisted that I get tested for Swine Flu as I had all of the symptoms. But unfortunately I had to decline due to lack of time. I made it through the day of teaching, drinking 2 liters of orange juice in 6 hours. And then I had to cancel my birthday dinner afterwards to go home and rest.
On top of the misery I was feeling, my school forgot it was my birthday and I didn't get the cake I was looking forward to (as this is what our school does for every one's birthday). So yes, I was sick, not blowing out 24 candles, and not celebrating whatsoever that it was my Champagne year. Hopefully I can make up for it over the weekend. Happy fan-freakin' Birthday to me! ;)
