the flu?
December 4, 2003

so after having everyone in the current workplace get sick, and take many days off to get over it, i was in the same situation. my sinuses decided to explode on tuesday, which i thought was a fluke, but by wednesday, my head was pounding furiously. i was sneezing every 2 minutes, and having to blow my nose at an incredible rate. today, i felt a lot better when i woke up, and my sickness just went downhill from there. by the time i got to work, i was barely able to hear, my stomach was churning, and i wasn't able to concentrate at all.

now, i was sick just a couple of weeks ago, and at the same time, i hurt my back. bad luck coming in 3's? i think so. nevertheless, the sickness i had 2 weeks ago was far less invasive. last time, i just felt as if i was going to fall down any time i wasn't sitting down; i was suffering from vertigo rather badly. this time, it is full-blown ickyness. i hate being sick. so, i decided to take the rest of the day off of work. i came home, promptly turned on a movie, sucked down some nyquil, lay down on the couch, and fell asleep. the cat joined me, and i didn't move for about 7 hours.

when i awoke, i felt much much better... so here i sit, at the end of making dinner, and am thinking about bed again. the best part about being ill is feeling better again. and i seriously cannot wait to get back to work tomorrow. yay. *crossing my fingers, hoping that feeling better will increase*

I'm living in terror of the flu right now. Not because I think it will kill me or anything. I just loath being sick.
