So, as far as stating the obvious goes: Being sick sucks. A lot.
I could sorta feel it coming on yesterday when I was achey all day and tired. Oh, and the part where I thought I was losing my voice. I think those were all signs.
And today? Well, when I woke up I could hardly speak. MY throat felt like it was on fire and I spent a lot of time feeling too hot or too cold. I spent the morning, afternoon and early evening in bed. Trying to sleep it off. I'm drugged up and tired and a little out of it.
By now, 9 pm, or so I'm starting to feel a little better, but I'm not sure if those are the drugs speaking or if this is some quick lived little adventure in the land of germs.
I didn't have to go to work today but I also won't get paid for hours I don't work. I've watched a few movies, dreamt about basketball (it was on the tv where I was sleeping), tried to eat a few times and also tried to explain to the dog that I'm not really in a position to play tug.
So if the news is right and the flu season really is peaking then this better be all I see of it. Otherwise I'm going to be annoyed. Feel free to send get well cards and chocolate. Not that I can eat chocolate right now, but sometime soon I will be able to. Really.
