Day 2


Thursday, July 18, 2013

The first day of the CON, this was the day the girls help me move to the other room too by the way.  I was taking my time because I wasn't feeling that great to begin with.  I was really upset with the Holiday Inn Bayside and how they handled the situation.  I've spent $80 just on remedies alone.  I plan on writing a letter and sending them copies of the receipts for reimbursement.  I swear, I did everything in my power to stay healthy for this trip only to get sick here of all places.  Something similar happened to me 2 years ago when we stayed at the Residence Inn Downtown but it's not as severe as this one.  I felt symptoms about the 2nd or 3rd day and remember that I left the exhibit floor early to get a bite to eat and rest in the room.  Same thing, allergies.  At least then, I was able to enjoy most of the trip. 

Aaron and I got ready, got on the bus and headed to the convention center and got a few things.  You know my love for Minions.  If you follow me on Facebook and InstaGram, you've seen that picture of me and Carl.  He's just a display case.  If he truly were a real minion, I would've taken him home.  LOL!  I was only at the CON for 2 hours, spent most of my budget for the day shopping and Aaron had panels he was attending at Nerd HQ and WootStock.  So he dropped me at the bus, gave me a kiss and off I went.  To rest.

I took a nap for about an hour or two, breathing is fun when you can breath but when you got Allergic Asthma like I do right now, you wish you had an oxygen machine.  The girls and I moved me and Aaron's stuff to the newer room that was located in the tower, which should have been our room in the first place.  

The girls and I had dinner at House of Thai.  So delish!  I have leftovers for days.  Took the girls back to their hotel and I went to Walgreen's to secure myself a few items that would help me in my quest for breathing.

Aaron got back about 1am.  Poor guy didn't even get to do anything he planned to do because he was watching me.  I can't sleep laying down so I'm having to sit up.  I really don't know if I slept at all.  I don't think I did actually.  It was pretty tough.  I can't walk long distances cause I get out of breath so easy.
