...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.
