“Quoth the raven, ‘Nevermore.’”

Edgar Allan PoeWhy am I quoting Edgar Allan Poe?  For 2 reasons!  First of all, today is the bicentennial of Poe’s birth.  He’s one of my favorite authors, and I never grow tired of his short stories (maybe a little of his poems – I’m not much of a poetry girl).  So, happy birthday Edgar Allan Poe!

The other reason is because that is exactly how I feel.  Late Saturday night/Sunday morning (around 4AM) I wound up in the hospital.  It was either food poisoning or a really bad case of the stomach flu (which is what they are inclined to think it was).  I didn’t get sick until 10PM, but I was so dehydrated by 4AM that I had to go to the hospital.  They told me that technically, an adult shouldn’t be able to get as dehydrated as I got, so it’s a good thing I went!

Anyways, I never want to feel that way again.  So – “Nevermore!”
