Being sick....sucks.
Sep. 18th, 2007 08:33 pmYesterday I woke up feeling adequate. My foot hurt, but I was determined to walk anyhow, so I limped my route--approximately a mile. It was humid and I got sweaty.
When I got home, I had to take a bath as I couldn't go to school all nasty.
I took my pills but was out of time, so I put my oatmeal in a cup and took it with me.
I couldn't seem to coordinate myself to eat, drive, and talk to susan all at once, so I just brought it to school with me, reheated it in the microwave, and ate it there.
Almost immediately after the morning meeting, I began to feel sick. I felt sicker and sicker. In the middle of second hour, I started to gag, and had to get up and leave. After puking in the bathroom, I decided, "Screw this, I'm going home."
I made it through 4th hour. Then I talked to Jay and he said, "Go home."
I left stuff for my poetry classes, and went home. I slept most of the day. Late in the day, I ate a hard roll and a piece of turkey sandwich meat.
It stayed down. I figured I was on the mend. I went to bed at about 9:30.
I woke up at 4:30 feeling fair. I decided I could go to school, so I went early to survey the damage done in my absence. It wasn't bad. All my dictionaries seem to have vanished.
Well, before home room was over, I was feeling hot and sick again. I went to the bathroom, and my face was white, white. My eyes looked like zombie eyes. So, I decided I would go home.
I laid out stuff for the classes, and Jay told me to get out of there.
So, I came home, slept a while, threw up a while, slept some more, watched a couple episodes of BBC America's Robin Hood, and slept some more.
Then I talked on the phone a while.
I sewed some doll clothes.
I have several swaps that are all late. I have to get them DONE and OUT. I want to get them out by this weekend.
We'll see. I wasn't planning on being sick this week.
Ah, well.
At least I sorta caught up on my sleep
I hope I can make it through the day tomorrow. So far, I feel ok.
still feel tired and for some reason my back hurts--probably from laying in bed all day
i've been a lazy lout.
