Sick???

Why is it that whenever things are going well, and training is rocking hard, you always have to go and get sick?? I don't htink I have ever had a tournament that I wasn't sick in the weeks leading up to it and it is looking like the nationals will be the same.
I took today off work and it is a good thing: instead of automatically waking up at 6:30 like I always do even on the weekend, I woke up at 11:45! That was over 12 hours of sleep. For an insomniac, that is incredible!
After laying around feeling rather wretched for a while, I decided I wasn't going to let this sickness get to me. So, I walked over to the gym and did a whole big bunch of cardio to try to sweat it out. I think it worked! But I still went home and passed out! Judo tonight was actually pretty good.. I was moving very well! I think I was moving so well because I was trying to conserve energy since I was feeling so sick!!
:)
Anyhow, I will sleep well tonight and am looking forward to the Felicia Oh seminar at Kimonogirls tomorrow!!
P.S. I am still rather sick... the cough is there and the ball of phlegm is still at the back of my throat!
