Dear Body,

I realize that you went through a really hard time the past couple weeks with the monthly from hell, but I thought we were over this "achy breaky" business. Maybe it is true that you're really worn out from the last few weeks and so your defenses were down and you let an intruder intrude. I don't really know. But this weird, tight, tingley chest pain and feeling like your on the verge of fever all the time HAS to stop. Also, the whole constantly "nauseated" thing is getting old.

I can't stand to watch Scott clean the whole house top to bottom and make me soup and force airbourne down my throat without wanting to make him a really big dinner in return.

You're lucky, body, that you have such a good husband that takes good care of you when you're semi-sick with something you don't know or understand.
