This is me over-sharing unwanted details again...

The worst time of day to take a nap would be 7pm.
How do I know this? Because now it's 9:30pm and I'm wide awake.
But I'll tell you what: I have good reason for this fatigued body of mine.

This has been my third day in bed, only getting up to grab some food, then heading right back for the pillows.

Day 1 - no excuse other than sheer laziness.
But day 2, that's when the nightmare occurred.

You see, The ThaiDizzle and I got up, bright and early, with high hopes and goals for the day.
We went running. Did you hear that? R-u-n-n-i-n-g.
I can barely believe it myself, but it happened.
Then, we went to our favorite breakfast spot here on the island and ordered our usual:
Three Egg Omelettes.
Tomatoes and onions for me. Tomatoes and mushrooms for him.
Now normally, these omelettes are the bomb dot com.
I could eat them twice a day probably.
But something about this particular omelette wasn't making me jump for joy.
But I just ignored those signs and pushed through.
Towards the end of the omelette, I kept thinking, "Hmm...this doesn't seem cooked enough. Maybe I should stop eating it. Buuutttt, I probably shouldn't waste food because of all those starving children and all. Welp, bottoms up!"
Then I ate it all anyway.

Fast forward 2 hours and a nausea train hit me. And it hit hard.
Boom. In the bathroom over. and over. and over again.
I couldn't keep anything down. Fruit smoothie? Gone. Pineapple? Gone. Gatorade? Gone.
Part of me really wants to share more details with you on what I'm even surprised my body could do, but I'm pretty sure you have vivid enough imaginations and I'm pretty sure you just don't need to know that part of my life.
So I'll spare you. You're welcome.
Just pretend this is me:

Anyway, let's just say I googled my symptoms and came back with results of:

Food poisoning
Tapeworm
Traveler's diarrhea

Oh, and liver cancer. But that's just me being dramatic and it's probably not that. *fingers crossed*

Anyway, moving on.
I spent most of the night waking up with horrible abdominal pain and spent all of today sleepy and in similar pain.
Hence the 7pm nap.
And get this, The Dizzle has been having similar "stomach issues" today!
He had the omelette too! It's confirmed! Blame the omelette! 
{I sound a little too excited about The Dizzle being sick.}

It's a real shame. Because this experience has now ruined those omelettes for me and I will probably never have one again. Probably. Let's not get too carried away and ban them for life just yet.

Anyway, that's what's exciting over in my neck of the woods.
I hope you have a lovely Tuesday.
But before I go, I'd like you all to meet Julie!
If you don't know, Julie is a saucy little minx who was living in Paris, now Brussels, then soon to be Canada. International lover, yo!
I hope you can show her some blog love and follow along on her adventures!

Take it away, Julie!

Namaste guys, 

I'm Julie from the brand new cansouplover.com (cansouplover.blogspot.com is now my french blog). 

Today i'm here to talk about cheap makeup.

I know i know, when someone a few months ago tried to talk to me about $2 lipstick I just pretended to listen while making my grocery list in my head (i do that a lot, i'm a bad person). 
BUT now i'm a girl with a plan! 

A plan on savings in order to move across the world in a few months.

I need to make some budget cuts and buying cheaper makeup than my usual Chanel foundations, YSL concealer, and Dior lipstick is necessary (unless someone is ready to sponsor my little life? No? okay, let's get back to the cheap makeup then! Thanks ya'll). 

On a more serious note, It also made me realise that it's not always about the price, the obvious, the showy things. It's not because you can afford something that you should use it. Especially when there is a good alternative on the market.
Being reasonable is good, it's mature.  And we clearly don't need to sacrifice quality over price, right?

So to prove to myself I can make this, I've decided to do my complete New Year's Eve makeup with E.L.F! 

And here is the result :

Am i on the right track here? Or should i get back to expensive products and quit the savings/moving thing already? 

*********************************************************************************

Can't go wrong with some money saving tips!

P.S. I ordered a bunch of E.L.F products before I left The States and we're talking $2 nail polishes and $3 eye shadows. Pretty darn good quality too!

I approve.
Thanks Julie!!

Happy Tuesday!

xoxo
