(no subject)

Woke up feeling like hell, emailed work I wasn't coming in, rolled over and slept for 2 hours. Dragged myself out of bed, realized I felt enough better that I probably could have gone in to work, went to vote and to the grocery store to get cough drops and bottled water and chocolate, got home and collapsed in utter exhaustion.

I think it's a good thing I didn't go in to work, in that case.

Oh, man. Feel better soon.

My cold symptoms, of cough and a few sniffles and sneezes, really aren't that bad (well, except when I'm trying to fall asleep). It's that my entire body, including my face, feels like it's subject to the Feline Gravitational Force Field, the kind that makes you, when a cat is asleep and purring in your lap, loose all will to move.

Yes! A very good thing!



And chocolate is a sine qua non in any healing process!



(Hmmm, I need a "things are getting worse - please send choclate" icon. I've just got find a manga pic of someone eating the stuff that I want to use. The recent Ward pic of Goku and Gojyo munching out on Valentine's candy was too cheeky and not desperate enough ... .)

I'm just glad it seems to be a cold - which I think I contracted from the ConDFW con chair - and not the flu or the viral meningitis that my coworker's wife had been diagnosed with.

I had a headache low in the back of my head two days ago that had me paranoid about meningitis, but after looking up the symptoms I was relived to realized I had no other symptoms and the headache felt exactly like all my other tension headaches. XD And it's gone now, yay.

Of course, now bronchitis is always a possibility...

Eugh. Hope you feel better soon!

A good thing, indeed.

Ugh. Sorry to hear it and hopefully you'll feel better soon.

Wow, that was my day yesterday.

Today I'm at work and desperately wishing I wasn't.

My plan is to go to work tomorrow, but give myself permission to go home at lunch if I need to.
