Dropping Like Flies

LCA was good in general. I wasn’t super impressed by the quality of talks I attended, but at least there was a broad mix of topics. Left Dunedin early on Saturday morning for a cricket match which we won by 9 wickets, sweet!

Went to bed early Saturday night, but had a pretty restless night. That was the beginning of possibly the worst 24 hours of my life that I can remember being sick. Seemingly I, along with many other delegates, picked up a bug/food poisoning which meant that most of Sunday was spent worshiping a toilet bowl. Was getting pretty worried because I was losing a serious amount of water from my body, and couldn’t get much fluid down. On top of that was achy joints, a headache and a temperature. It’s now a couple of hours since I’ve had a puke so at least one half of my body wants to keep in the water [grin].

Isn’t it strange though that when your body needs sleep, it’s the last thing you can do? I keep having this recurring dream and waking up every 30 minutes. After a week of activity at LCA, I could kill for a good sleep.

Update: Apparently this could be the norovirus, and mentioned in this article.
