Sick day

Sick day
Current mood: sick

I dislike being sick.

Part of it is knowing that it's out of my hands, part of it is knowing I should do more to stay healthy.

It felt like I was getting to the end of whatever *this* is... the coughing, runny nose, no voice bullshit I've had for what feels like forever.

And then, last night while we were driving back from Twin Falls, it started. Hot. Cold. Chills. Sweats. I just wanted to die. When we got back, I had Scott drop me off instead of heading to the ranch. I managed to get changed into my sleep clothes and collapsed into bed.

But instead of sleeping, I tossed and turned all night. Hot. Cold. Covers off, covers on. I think I was able to sleep for a solid hour. But after that, I was awake almost every 15 minutes. What made it worse is I was supposed to be at work at 4:45 in the a.m. Needless to say, when the alarm went off at 3:30, I hit snooze three times before calling the sick line. I tossed and turned some more before passing out until about noon.

I'm all for sending this cold, or whatever it is, someplace else. I'm done with it, I'm tired of feeling like this. If you know someone you'd like to get sick, let me know and I'll do what I can to infect them.

Until then, I'll be thinking healthy thoughts and doing what I can to get this crap outta my system.
