When “taking it easy” goes completely wrong

I am planned to have a calm recovery day… but that didn’t happen. Two cups of coffee, noodles, hot chips, and a seafood boil. All while recovering from a stomach virus. If I’m going to suffer, it might as well taste good.

Sometimes my stomach has to remind me I’m not built for chaos.
