Say "NO" to CA Sushi Bowl!

Just in case anyone plans on eating at the California Sushi Bowl on Vermont and Melrose anytime soon, I'd recommend you don't. That was the last thing I ate last Thursday before I started to feel a little off. Friday, it got worse. I started to feel more queasy and had a headache for most of the day. It then proceeded to nausea but I never through up, which may or may not have been a good thing.

I tried to get up on Saturday morning to go to the bathroom. As I was standing in front of the mirror, I felt extremely light headed and felt as if I was going to faint. The last time I felt that way was before I fainted in high school before I was diagnosed with anemia. I proceeded to panic trying to figure out what the hell was wrong with me. All the roomies peaced-out for the weekend so luckily The Joe was gracious enough to look after me while I was sweating away all of Saturday. I was knocked out! I was too weak to eat or drink anything, which sucked because that left me extremely weak!! I managed to muster up enough strength to move to the living room in the evening. I didn't have the strength to move after that so I spent the night on my futon in the living room.

The next morning was a little better. With a little mental will, I managed to get a little bit of cereal in me and take a warm shower after I determined that I had enough strength to actually stand for longer than a minute. I was still out of breath afterwards but felt a little better.

Today is another day and I'm still trying to recover my strength. No lifting big, fat boxes. Lots of fluids, though.

Lesson learned, kids...be extremely picky which "B" places you get food from.
