If I had one piece of advice for brides-to-be, that would be it. Take your vitamins.(At least, that would be my advice right now. Next week, it could very well be something different.)

Clearly, the stress leading up to the wedding took a bit out of me. But the thing is that I was running on such adrenaline, for so long, that I simply didn’t have time to notice. However, now that the whole production is over, my immune system is shot.

I’ve been married for exactly a month (tomorrow!), and I’ve been sick twice since we got home from our honeymoon. With this round, I got knocked over by what appears to be the resurgent flu…a flu which all of the newscasters in the area are telling me has taken a toll on school attendance in the Atlanta area. That’s great, except that I’m the only adult I know who has succumbed to this miserable sickness so far. I’ll know what it is for sure in a couple of days, once the doctor has gotten the flu test back. I do know that it’s not strep, which is good, but not actually having a name for this phlemmy, chokey, pins in my throat, half-nauseous mess is no fun either. Just tell me what’s wrong so that I can fix it.

And then I promise I’ll start taking a multivitamin. And hey, you guys start doing so too (if you haven’t already). We don’t need any more sick newlyweds on our hands, okay?
