It must seem like some crazy dream that you're living through.

This is how I looked on December 28, for my doctor's appointment:

I called in sick on Wednesday and, other than the GemsTV spurts, I basically spent the day passed out the couch.

Because I'm a hypochondriac, I went to see my personal care physician at Kaiser on Thursday. She said I just needed to take ibuprofen for the migraines and Claritin for the sinuses. And she scheduled me for an ultra-sound to check for gall stones.

It was such a relief to know that I don't have meningitis or Reye's Syndrome. Yeah, I shouldn't self-diagnose the heck out of myself.

I wore baggy comfy clothes to my doctor's appointment.

The original plan was for me to go home right after the appointment and change into another outfit. That all changed when I got stuck in traffic and saw how horribly backed-up my exit off the freeway was.

So, I went to work as is, except I changed out of flats into boots to hide the leggings.

Yes, I wore leggings to work, and I LOVED IT.

For those not in the know, I keep several pairs of shoes in my car. Two pairs of flats for driving stick shift, a pair of pumps, a pair of boots, and a pair of booties.

sweater: H&M.....top: Kohls.....skirt: Ross
leggings: Target.....knee-highs worn under leggings: Target
flats: Payless
wide-calf boots: Payless

Because I have grown accustomed to wearing tights, I cannot stand having bare feet in shoes. So knee-highs if I wear pants.
