Today will be a quick update, mostly to let everyone know I am alive and didn’t want to miss another day without writing something. I also gained some insight I want to share. Mostly though I think of all of you as my friends and friends whine to each other when they are sick. Tuesday morning after leaving from getting a hair cut I was heading home as fast as I could. I needed to get into the bathroom. I had felt fine until partway into getting a haircut and then my stomach started rumbling and churning. I paid and ran out the door dove into my car and sped away. I was thinking maybe it was a fluke and started getting ready for bed since I had plans for the night. A local Irish pub was going to have Guinness girls there with freebies and samples. Free Guinness, ’nuff said I was excited. Unfortunately my bathroom trip was not a fluke and there would be no free Guinness for me.
Instead of a night filled will free booze I enjoyed two days feeling like shit. I could keep nothing inside me. The first day I drank water only and had no hunger. I should have cause I know there was nothing in my stomach. What didn’t pass right through me came back up. This went on for about 24 hours straight with some restless sleep in between. Followed by another day of feeling terrible. Achy, lack of hunger, upset stomach and more feeling shitty. Not the best two days I’ve ever had. Especially not the best two days off work I’ve ever had.
While in my feverish state I had some weird dreams and ideas. I though about how bad it would be if one had to bug out while suffering from a bad sickness. Have you ever tried to hike with a full pack when standing is almost impossible? If a disaster had happened I would have been completely worthless. This got me to thinking even more about including others in Bug out plans. To apply the Survivalist motto, One is none two is one, to people. I’ll be rethinking my Bug out plans in the coming weeks to include friends, family, meeting points and what not. Before It was head to BOL and stay there. Now I’m sure it will be more elaborate with much more redundancy.
That’s all I can mange today time to Nitequill up and pass out. Do you include others in your bug out plans? If so let me know in the comments.
