😆 Cute kitty. I hope you are feeling better. Yeah, salt water is gross but actually seems to work. Hows everything going?
It’s going well. Sales were better yesterday than today. But there’s two more days (or actually, one day and three hours of the last day), so there’s hope.
My throat seems better today. The swelling has gone down, and I can swallow without wincing every time. Yawning hurts sometimes though. Still no sniffles or anything like that. It’s just a sore throat. I do have some white spots on my uvula and my tonsil is still swollen, but it seems to be better.
Last night we went out to dinner with some friends of ours here in Madison, whom we only see when we are at this convention. It was a very nice evening, but an early one. Tonight we are going to try to go to some parties and see who else we know here. I have a bit more energy tonight, so it should be okay. Tor Publishing is having a party tonight, so I want to make sure I go to that one. I feel so distant from people I knew before because we missed last year’s convention (tables in dealer’s room sold out too fast). And I haven’t seen Jim Frenkel yet (Tor Book editor whom I used to know), and I doubt he’d remember me after all this time. Although, we did see his previous assistant today, and she came up to us and greeted us, so there’s hope.
I just noticed they changed it to you. I hope you make LOT’S of money and can buy LOT’S of Windstones when you get back
Thanks, that’s sweet.
Well, the sales picked up yesterday. And now we’ve got a small profit. We have four more hours of sales today, so hopefully, it will be very good. I have a feeling I still won’t be able to buy myself any Windstones with it though. I’ll have to restock for the next convention at the beginning of July.
Now the fun part 🙄 … Early yesterday morning, I came down with a stomach flu and was up most of Saturday night. I think I got about four hours of sleep. Then I felt terrible all day yesterday. I had to leave the table and go take a nap in my room about half way through the day. The hubby got the flu around dinner time yesterday, so now we are both sick, although I’m starting to feel better. We had to miss the Fancy Dress Party last night — we just stayed in our room and slept from 6:00 p.m. on.
The 6-hour drive home today should be interesting. At least I’ve gotten plenty of sleep now (I do all of the driving). The hubby can sleep in the car. I have a feeling though that we will be stopping at every rest stop there is on the way home.
And my sore throat is better. 😕
Ugh, if it isn’t one thing it’s another. Glad your throat is finally feeling better even if your stomach isn’t. *Hugs*
We had a few sales yesterday and an uneventful drive home. I did have to stop and get a Frappaccino on the way home though – so tired. My stomach didn’t like it much, but it kept me awake. The hubby slept. He still feels yucky today. I’m feeling well enough to eat now, but the sore throat is coming back. Weird! I may have to go get some antibiotics. My tonsils are still swollen. It’s good to be home though.
Glad you made it safely home and sorry you still aren’t feeling well… *builds fire in fireplace and brings hot peppermint tea and bunny slippers for Em*

Well, sort of. My stomach is still sore, but I can eat some now. My throat is still sore, but it seems to be getting better. I went to the doctor for my throat, and it seems to be viral, so I just have to live with it and rest so it gets better.
Yes. I have a temp job lined up for Thursday. I hope I’m better by then too. It’s just filing and making copies and things like that, so it should be okay anyway.
The hubby actually feels worse than I do right now though. It’s a good thing he’s off work for the summer.
