I was a Dud Date.

Brian and I have just returned home after flying over to Melbourne for a few days to celebrate our wedding anniversary. A lovely romantic idea. We both really like Melbourne. There is always something happening. Its very cosmopolitan, the variety of food available is fantastic and the shopping is excellent.

On the night we arrived we went out to dinner with Moni and great fun was had by all. Later that evening....3.15am...I think it was...I awoke feeling severely dodgy and promptly deposited all of the food I had ever eaten...EVER...into the pristine whiteness of the ensuite toilet. This continued every hour on the hour until an angel of a doctor delivered me from this vileness with an injection of something to settle my eruptions and supplies of ongoing medication.

For the next two days I slept. Brian did too. In between popping out for dinner and such. I could'nt even think of food in any other regard other than 'the sustaining life kind of way' and I found myself hankering for and surviving mainly on 'Boost' juices.

The day of the 12th was our anniversary and we managed to go out to a few places close to the hotel. Although I frequently broke out in profuse sweating I told myself that this was one way the toxins could release themselves without putting any further stress on orifices already overtaxed. It was quite a nice day and Brian was chuffed because we went to the Collingwood football club and he spent up big on 'stuff' and I was chuffed because he bought me a beautiful necklace...and no... it was'nt from the footy shop.

The following morning was spent wandering about aimlessly...slowly....and then we flew home that afternoon. Our romantic anniversary was a bit of a dud...but we did get a lot of rest...and we did spend a lot of time together. At least Brian was'nt working. You've gotta look at the good stuff...dontcha!
