I am so so behind on updates right now, but that's because I've actually been out having a life. Well, that's if larp related activities and socialising count as a life. Anyway, presently I'm at home from work because I'm bedridden with plague, so I have time to play LJ catch up. This is a different plague than the one I posted about a few weeks ( Read more... )

Well, today has sucked royally. Still incredibly lethargic from being sick, behind on everything, a three hour shopping trip almost had me collapse with exhaustion and I also had a fight with my mother and two fights with my dad and I couldn't find either the present I wanted to buy for Mum or plastic boning on my shopping trip ( Read more... )

Since my two month hiatus, I've fallen out of the habit of journalling, and it's taking me a while to get back into the swing of things. I've come down with a cold which means all I really have energy to do is sit here and type. There's a fabulous storm raging outside and lightening strikes real close by. I have my curtains closed and I can still ( Read more... )

So this infernal cold hasn't gotten any better since Friday, and I'm pretty sure it's actually moved into my sinuses (ah, that familiar pain in my cheeks) which means it's going to be antibiotics time. I told the doctor this last week but they're like no, no, it's just a cold, you don't need meds. So the fact it's been week and I'm still feeling ( Read more... )

It's been kind of a lousy day. Wolfgang fall out is quite something. Constructive criticism is fine. We love that kind of stuff. Personal attacks on GMs and crew members? Not even remotely cool ( Read more... )

Boy, I really oughtn't be allowed to post when I have a fever. I really am frightfully melodramatic/pathetic. Tuesday was pretty lousy but with the saving grace that at some point during the evening, my fever left, and I felt somehow, indescribably, better. I slept through the night and managed to scrape together the energy to go to uni for my ( Read more... )

Still plagued. Not amused. Another delirious night, though I can't recall any of my dreams this time. Bundled myself up in my robe and went downstairs to read for a bit with a cup of tea at 6am after I got bored of lying awake, blowing my nose to no avail, and there was a crick in my neck from lying on my flattened pillow. I finished my book on ( Read more... )

Jesus Christ, what a night, what a night. The lung malaise I complained of on Friday has mostly resolved itself by Saturday, but by Sunday, I was feeling worse than before. Perhaps Requiem did me ill, though that hardly seems possible what with my eight layers including two layers of thermals, two layers of wool, two layers of cotton and a leather ( Read more... )

So now I'm pretty sick. I didn't think I was that bad until the flu drugs wore off and I almost passed out at work. Hmmm. Distinctly ungood. I think, short of a miraculous healing, I will be taking a sick day tomorrow, as I already feel like I've infected a stupid amount of people, including the small boy we babysat on reception today - his Dad had ( Read more... )

Dear Doctor LJ,

I've got a sore throat, sniffles and general lethargy.

I'm graduating on Thursday.

What's your best advice on getting better really fast, apart from staying warm and lots of fluids?

Thanks in advance for your help,
allova the unwell
