Day Three - I'm done

I am so disappointed. I've caught a cold. More specifically a sinus infection. And it is getting worse by the hour.

When I woke up this morning, I didn't feel right. I was confused why my throat was slightly sore. But I trudged on, thinking that it's been 2 1/2 days since I've eaten anything, so I must just be tired from that. So when I got to work, I was so out of it, and my nose was slightly runny. I had to eat something or I wasn't going to make it. I ate a granola bar. After 30 minutes I felt better. But as the day wore on, my head got more stuffy, my nose more runny, and my concentration was severely lacking.

I went home early to eat. I had some white rice which was excellent. My fast is now over, only half of it complete. This sucks bad. I was so excited to make it five days, but I am not willing to get really sick because I 'm not eating. Plus I didn't want it to affect work. I am very worried I'm going to miss work tomorrow because I am only feeling worse as the day wears on. I gave this cold to myself, and I don't want to miss work just to be sick. That is just plain stupid. So far this year, I've escaped a cold Owen had for two weeks, and Kaz had it a little. I guess I am now catching it.

Well, I guess I need to try some other time for a 5 day fast. Right now I can't even imagine fasting, I just want to lay down and relax.
