It's not easy, being queasy. At least today is better than sitting beside the snorer from yesterday, you know the kind of snoring that is impossible to ignore...deep, startling, goes silent for a minute just to throw you a new curve on human sound.
So, I'll enjoy my silence, if only disturbed by nausea that doesn't seem to want to quit today. Yuck. Bananas are a friendly food in this situation, my sandwich has very much lost its appeal. Bread seems like a horrific food. I see smoothies in my future.
Went for a second round of head shaving this morning, as the stubble began to come out in the shower from last round. Weird sensation, the razor didn't drag as it does normally...more seemed to snag the hair and pull it from the root...no resistance. Same with the stragglers on my beard. I had the facial hair growth of a 14 yr old boy. While cool, I decided to get rid of it to prevent the hoardes of teenage girls from being impressed.
Generally, my body seems to be reacting about a day earlier than how I felt last time. The previous round on Tuesday I was still up for a long walk. Not so much last night, was fading fast by 9 and was barely awake by 10pm. Didn't feel all that well last night either. Normally my "morning sickness" would pass by the time I was out of the shower, but now it is lingering with me through the day too.
Still, all things considered, I'm at about a 2 on the scale of 10 for side-effects. So I haven't room to complain. And without "snorey" sitting beside me, my blood pressure is probably a lot better today as well.

Hi Geoff, trust this is short term pain for long term gain....Great to see you're hanging tough.
All the best to you and Melissa,
U. Everard.
Hang in there Geoff!
I check your blog everyday to see how you're doing. At least you don't have to worry about doing your hair in the morning! The good news is that you have a nice head that doesn't require hair! You and Melissa are in our daily prayers.
P.S. I can relate to NOT wanting sandwiches-----
I couldn't eat them for 9 months. No great loss though, there are lots of other good foods!
See you soon. Stay away from the snorer! haha
That last comment was from us!
