Sick with food on the brain?

Today lacked all sorts of interesting and basically consisted of me sleeping, trying to soothe my sore throat, and more sleeping.  Dave actually woke me up so I could write.  He knows how important writing everyday is for me and didn't want me to not do it and be upset with myself tomorrow.   I know it might seem like a mean thing to do for someone who's sick but this is only one of the reasons I totally love him.  He let me make the choice to write or sleep (even brought my computer to my bed) rather than automatically doing what he thinks is best.  Also, I love that for the past half hour he's been slaving over making me tea. Oh, that and he worked from home just so he could take care of me and let me complain at him all day.   I have absolutely no idea if anything I just wrote makes any sense whatsoever but I love my fiance for all the little things he does.

I also think I'm a big ol' baby.  Seriously, I'm like the guy in our relationship.  He's the one who gets sick and pushes himself through it.  I mean, he had mono and continued to work just about everyday except for the two that he was in the hospital for.  I mean, really?  He never complains.  I get a sore throat and I'm all, "Oh, woe is me!" ::whine, whine, whine::   When did I become such a big wuss.  My mom used to say I had remarkable pain tolerance but if I did, I think it must've worn off.   I will admit, this is the first time my throat has been this sore in a really long time but it's not like it has white spots or anything on it.  I contemplated going to the doctor but as I don't have a fever and aside from my throat being sore, my ears feeling blocked, and overall tiredness I feel okay.

In other news, Dave just told me that they are going to build and Earl of Sandwich in Boston!!!  That's seriously the best food news I've heard since we discovered where Five Guys was going to be located in Stoneham.  So many great food places so close by!!!  Katie introduced me to Earl of Sandwich when I went to visit her while she worked down in Disney and I fell in love with it.  Since then, every Disney trip I've been on since (so many Disney trips)  I've made it a point to eat there at least once.   I'm so happy they are coming to Boston; it's literally made my day (aside from the well wishes I received when I chose to complain on facebook).  So Earl of Sandwich and Five Guys... so much for my goal of wanting to cook at home.  I mean, why cook when there are so many great eateries.  Now, all we need is a real Patisserie like they have on every corner in Paris.  Not the French imitation cafes where they serve super sugary dried pastry.  No, I want to have a shop that serves us the real thing; where they bake bread every morning and their pastry is like artwork of deliciousness all for a couple of dollars.

Well, now that I've completely lost all control over this particular post I'm going to call it a night and hope I feel much better in the morning.
