I would like to extend my most heartfelt apologies to ANYONE and EVERYONE who I may have seemed distant, short tempered, and just completely out of sorts to. I was NOT 100% my true self on this past cruise and I sincerely feel horrible about that.
Just to briefly explain my uncharacterisic behaviors; I had just recently started taking a new medication 10 days before the start of the cruise. My Doctor had warned me that it may take a couple of weeks to balance out in my system, and I had tried to get started on this medication much sooner but, unfortunately, due to delays in being able to get an appointment and then the delays in just going through all of the required testing I had to do just get started on my new meds, it put me in the position of starting the process much later than I had originally planned. Bunny told me that I was being a bit,"snippy" and I was falling asleep everywhere, almost as if I had Narcolepsy or something. I'm sorry that any of you may have seen me behaving in that manner.
For those of you who already knew me, and knew that that was not my typical demeanor, I thank you for your patience and understanding. For those of you who were meeting me for the first time, I am completely embarrassed that you saw me in a state of mind that is completely atypical for me. I may have even seemed like some kind of idiotic, drunken fool but, I can assure you that I did not have even one single cocktail during that entire trip.
I feel especially embarrassed that on Saturday afternoon, a lovely young couple came out to the back Lido deck poolside and said, "We just wanted to meet the Bunny and Weasel". I told them that I needed to excuse myself and go to the restroom and that we would be right back. After finally finding a wheelchair accessible restroom, I started feeling, "dizzy and disoriented" again and I knew that I just had to lie down before I, "passed out" in my wheelchair again so, I had Bunny-girl just take me back to our room, where I fell back asleep for a couple of hours. I just know that that young couple who had just wanted to say, "Hello" to us, probably felt as though we just blew them off and didn't think that they were worthy of our time and, that was just NOT the case. I really do feel mortified that that happened and I hope and pray that this message somehow reaches them. I did not even get their names before I abruptly departed. I really feel like a total schmuck for that entire incident.
The good news is, is that the meds are finally beginning to balance out in my system and I have started to feel like my old self since Sunday evening. It's still a little slow going but, at least I'm not still being, "snippy" and I'm not just randomly falling asleep all over the place.
I hope that you will all forgive me and my behaviors and I really hope to get the chance to see you all again when I am running at my full capacity.
