My body is failing. Genuinely.

So I leave for Peru in a little over a week (EEEEEK!), and of course I'm sick. Of course. I've been coughing for a couple of days and decided to go in to the doctor to be safe. The diagnosis is that I have a little respiratory virus. GREAT. Just great. I'm probably going to need full use of my lungs for this little excursion.

Even better? Last week I had to go in for a veritable buffet of immunizations to go to "the third world" and cannot take antibiotics. I can only treat the symptoms. BALLSACK!


So, what now? Just wait it out. WAIT IT OUT. I'm so frustrated. I"m supposed to be in serious training mode. I'm supposed to be running and stairmastering and breaking in my boots. DOUBLE BALLSACK!

What's worse? This EXACT same thing happened right before my Hawaii trip when I was supposed to be running and stairmastering to get my bikini bod in check.

Why does this keep happening? Are and of you nurses or doctors? Help. Why do I fail when I need to not fail the most?

I'm pissed off. And coughing ALOT. Good vibes needed. And, go!
