Tired.
Monday night, I shared a hotel room with my sister, my mum, and teh Monkey. I shared a bed with my mum. Found out she's hard to sleep next to. I didn't sleep well, and I was up at 4 (though I kept trying to sleep till 5) Tuesday morning.
Tuesday night, I stayed over at Nate's. Shared a twin bed. Had lots of roommate drama. Didn't sleep well again.
Wednesday morning I got home around 8.30, and I immediately, despite plans to work, went to sleep. I woke up off and on for five hours, but I stayed in bed till 1.30.
Last night, I went to bed around 10.30. Got up around 7. No nap today as I went to Panera (a cat-free zone) and worked for several hours. Then I came home and worked some more.
I'm utterly exhausted.
Doesn't help that I apparently have mono. I went to the doctor June 15 and talked to her about my exhaustion, so she did blood work and found the mono. (My thyroid and iron levels are fine, apparently.) I go back tomorrow to have more blood work done. Why? I don't know. She told me to do it, so I said okay.
Apparently, I'm noncontagious. None of the guys I've kissed and no one who's eaten or drunk after me has gotten sick (with mono, at least). So at least I have that to be thankful for. I'd feel even crappier if someone caught this shit from me.
Mono first manifests as sore throat, fever, chills, and muscle aches. That was last August for me. After that brief bout of ickiness, mono manifests as chronic tiredness. Nate says he knew a girl who's grades dropped because she missed so much school for a year and a half. My one-year point is approaching.
I hate being so tired all the time. I don't do anything, and I get tired. I go out and do stuff, and I get tired. Most days I take a nap so that I can stay up till 10, which seems to be a normal sleep-time for someone who naturally wakes up at 6 or 7.
I'm tired of being tired. Someone invent a shot to kill mono, please.
