moominmollyI feel thoroughly disgusting.
I felt tired and jellylike through all of yesterday. So, I went to a spinning class to perk myself up. I had somehow expected a 45-minute workout and budgeted myself accordingly, aiming to be thoroughly exhausted after 3/4 hour. However, it was actually a 60-minute workout, and I spent the last few minutes of it a bit tingly and lightheaded. (YES, I backed off in intensity after I realized at :40 that I still had :20 left, and I was drinking water the entire time.) Phew. I had to sit down for a few minutes before I felt entirely safe getting in to the shower and plopping in the hot tub.
I picked up![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dilletante -- who brought me cookie dough and coffee! -- and we drove to sign class, where one of the other members had brought fresh organic strawberries, little babybel cheeses, and cranberry rolls. Class was interesting and long, and I drank yet another bottle full of water. Despite the food, interesting conversation, and lots of water, I developed a massive headache. It is a testament to the power of this headache that it was strong enough to mask the extreme nausea I was also feeling. So, when we dropped by diesel to hang out with elvendoll and sol3 afterwards, the Tylenol I popped and downed with some lemonade only served to bring the queasiness to the surface and make me feel even worse, and I went home early with my tail between my legs.
So, I hope I am not allergic to any of the following:
* bicycles
* cookie dough
* fresh strawberries and babybel cheeses
* CCAE classrooms
* discussions of cochlear implants
* lemonade at diesel
* other people
I slept a full 8 hours and this morning I still felt barely good enough to get up and come in to work.
Stupid body! Stupid stupid!

Date: 2004-04-15 08:13 am (UTC)Sometimes, I tell myself I'll just go to the gym to take a shower and get in the hot tub and relax, and that often guilts me into working out first. Not always, though -- I have in fact gone to the gym just to use the sauna and hot tub, and it did a damn good job of making me feel better, too. :)
A final thing that helps is not being at home. I carry a gym bag in my car so that I can go work out before or after work on days when I don't bike. If I get entrenched in my bed or in front of my computer at home, it's much harder to muster up the energy to leave.
The hardest thing for me is remembering in the mornings that I'd *rather bike to work* if at *all* possible, even when I feel tired and lazy, because in the end, it feels better. Still working on this one -- it seems easiest to remember this when I've had enough sleep recently.
