Hazards of the job

When I started doing restaurant reviews for our city, I figured that at some point I would get food poisoning. It just goes along with the territory, I suppose. I did end up getting food poisoning from last nights' dinner, but it wasn't from a restaurant that I was reviewing. It was from the deli at our brand new organic farmers market that just opened up.

So, I've had to cancel my training sessions and became couch-bound all day. Logan was a big help in keeping Carter entertained and made me laugh a little despite my loss of dinner and appetite. I was trying to explain food poisoning to him and why I was sick. He told me that I should go to the Doctor. Then not too much later than that, he saw a commercial for Zantac. He turned to me and with a straight face said, "You need to take the blue pills". I guess so...

I'm glad I didn't get anything serious, and I'm on the mend. I should be better for tomorrow when I'm set to review a bakery in town. I'd be pissed if I was still sick and couldn't eat a cupcake.

Oh, Bummer. I haven't eaten anything "prepared" from there yet. but I did buy a whole bunch of $1.99 granola.

Hope you are feeling better soon.

So how did writing the review go? :)

I can't imagine that I'd want to write something nice while feeling like that!
