  • NO! Not the ICK!

    ...DAMNIT! I have been doing so well.... taking my vitamins, eating healthier, sleeping more, keeping up on the hand washing. and as a result I have lasted almost 9 whole months with out so much as a sniffle..... Then yesterday.

    I woke up...felt wonderful! Started getting ready for work and I sneezed... no big deal thought I, just the latent dust lying around because I am lazy with the dusting.... oh god was I wrong. I get to work and suddenly it's like sneeze city... then an hour later my throat starts hurting... By the end of my 4 hour shift I can't breath through my nose, my throat hurts, my eyes are running... and I am pretty sure I had some sort of temp.... I was pissed to say the least. So I have been downing Zycam and vitamins like candy and now am going to quest for antihistamines... since I have NONE.

    I just hate my immune system sometimes... it's awesome, kicks but... but the second something catches hold it just gives up... I don't get that nice one-two day warning period... I can be fine and dandy one hour and be puking my guts out with a 102 fever, congestion and a cough the next.... believe me it's happened. Granted the length of my sicknesses are generally much shorter than most people... I just get hit with a steam roller for two or three days.

    The absolute worst part for me though... I can't play with the ferrets while I am sick. They can catch human viruses... >< So I can only watch from a distance

    *sighs* I was doing so well with this being healthy business....I'm gonna go soak in a hot shower till the water goes cold.

    I've got the same thing. I think it started at work yesterday. I was all fidgety and nervous about everything because of these stupid new timecard things they have implemented for dealing with the truck for timing our performance, without taking into account variables like phone calls, customers, (Oh god so many customers.) and the like. Nothing.

    Today is a Jewish Holiday. (Rosh Hashana.) I'm supposed to be in a synagogue, but instead, I'm staying home so that I don't infect people. You know how these social occasions are - You shake hands with everyone you see, etc. Can't be doing that now.

      Ugggh totally. I'm finally feeling like the steam roller has STOPPED running me over. I can breath a bit again and I feel pretty good...but I am still sick and I have to go to my friends Wedding today >< ...and then a three hour 'couples' class.... I am going to die...

      ...or infect our whole city....

      either way works fine.
