LIFE // seven o'clock shadow

You know how the light gets all swoopy right before the sun sets? How it's all blue and dappled and the sky is pink?

You know how when you have a mild fever everything seems like that? Like, even when it isn't seven o'clock?

No?

Well, maybe that's just me.

I wish I had something exciting to share with you today, lovelies, but I'm afraid I don't. I spent the day in bed, sore throat and slight fever and a sick stomach and tired bones. I watched a million movies from Netflix on my laptop and read books by Laurie Halse Anderson because she is my favorite author and slipped my way through exactly six Seventeen magazines. I think I learned more staying home sick than I did going to school. For example, did you know you can kill slimy underground deities with a shotgun? You know, just for future reference. Why don't they teach us this stuff in class, it is so much more useful than the Odyssey or geometric proofs.

And I flicked through several hundred Etsy shops, photo blogs, WeHeartIt posts, and lookbooks. So I can now bring you a mind-map collection of what my day was like. Minus the boxes of Saltines.

Oops. I lied. (via)

  3. Awh, I am so sorry you are sick, Olivia! I hope you feel/get better very soon. Being sick is NOT fun! I am praying for you, friend! ^_^

    P.S. I find that drinking either sprite or ginger ale helps an upset/sick stomach because it coats your stomach and makes it feel sooooo much better. BUT make sure to take little, dainty sips at a time (otherwise...well...you know...). :)

  4. P.S. Pepto Bismol helps a lot too! Thought it is thick and pink (and tastes extremely minty) it helps a lot too! I am telling you, my stomach feels better in ten minutes or less after I take that stuff.

    Feel better soon! ^_^
