am sick today.
went to bed all fine and dandy and woke up this morning feeling like a drunk(en?) sailor the morning after. figuratively though cos ive not had a hangover before, but im guessing it ought to feel like this.
of course i pretty much gave my brain a hiatus through the day, opting to loll about in my parents' bed instead of getting up to... idk, finish my giant pile of work. not that i would have taken much in anws; the headache would have made sure of that. skipped out on the uni fair as well, which was probably a good choice considering bailu informed me it was sort of a failure.
by the time i woke up my fever was 38.9 then i panicked and took again to 38.3. still bad, so i called up my mommy to ask to go to the clinic. just in case, just in case, it was h1n1.
i have 3 theories about this:
1. i worked myself too hard too suddenly the last week (s) and thus have collasped from exhaustion. sounds awfully familiar, need to tell rohan to stop predicting bad things happening to his health because so far theyve ended up happening to me instead. bad. also, i think its time i look out for someone who can give me a slap in the head and drive me to rest when i have to, because it seems im not too good at regulating my own workaholicism myself.
2. its just time for one of my usual bouts of sickness. happens about 3 times a year, but i had my last one a week before cts, so this is awfully fast. maybe all that physical exertion ytd helped accelerate it. this is what happens when you dont exercise
at all.3. one of the people who opened their door to me was secretly sick/ down with h1n1 and spread it to me ))):
of course the last was most worrying, which was why i was driven to seeing a doctor. usually i just sleep it over cos its viral and i pay to have someone tell me to sleep?
luckily this time, however, my fears seem to be unconfirmed. she didnt even mention h1n1, only gave me a bunch of medicine to alleviate the symptoms. rawr.
and i just went to get my headache meds, but what kind of lousy thing is this i just get more pain. i will stop typing rubbish now.
