So, today was weird. I woke up this morning feeling well. I cooked me three pieces of bacon, two pieces of bread with blackberry jelly on it, and chocolate soy milk. Not even 5 minutes after finishing, I started have horrible pains at the top of my abdomin. I tried walking it off thinking it was because I was sitting down while eating; but sadly, that didn't work. I ended up taking a pain killer and tried to relax. Two hours later, I fell asleep for about an hour and a half. When I woke up, I was feeling much better.
I got up to fix a chicken salad sandwhich for lunch. Then I applied for jobs all afternoon. I cooked dinner using another recipe in my Crohn's Cookbook. I cooked a Lemon and Garlic Shrimp Linguine and cresants with a honey butter glaze on top. The linguine was ok but the cresants were awesome!
After dinner, I was feeling so well, that I decided to go on Girls Night Out to the dance club. Dancing was my life; until I had my last surgery in 2005. Ever since then, I have had trouble with any type of dancing. Though, I am slowly learning to get back into it. I also met two new cool ladies, though they are much younger than I.
Some time towards the end of the night, I used all my energy dancing to Copperhead Road by Steve Earle. That is my favorite dances but when the song ended, I was hurting. The pain was more of a muscle thing rather than a cramping thing; but it hurt like the devil! So, I decided to relax the rest of the night. When I got home, I took a pain killer and passed out. Overall, it was a wonderful night! I can't wait for next weeks Girls Night Out.

Isn't it wonderfully bittersweet when the day starts off with a strong reminder that you have Crohn's, yet you take a chance in participating in something you love- and have a great time in the process?
So very happy for you that your evening was fantastic. :-)
