Dehydration

So, I went hiking yesterday and didn't drink a whole lot of water because I wasn't thirsty. BAD DECISION!! As a result my body went into operation shut down at about 10pm yesterday.

It started with a little headache and a dry tongue. I didn't take long for me to realize I was dehydrated, but at this point it was a little too late to chug a liter and make it all go away... Then that headache erupted into a migraine and I started to feel really queasy. Being a medical professional, I prescribed myself to take some Ibuprofin, curl up in my bed with a full Camelbak and wait things out until the morning.

Wellll... I didn't wake up with a head ache but now I'm having all sorts of strong yet strange food cravings. Flax seeds, marzipan, and fresh peaches. If it wasn't Sunday I'd probably run to the store and buy some marzipan and peaches but I'll have to settle with the bag of flax... Yep...

Moral of the Story: Jill needs to take care of herself or WEIRD stuff happens. I guess I could have worse problems than periodic Flax seed binges...
