currently:
- toast
- fruit juice
- tea (instead of coffee)
- fever (down to 100.6 at the moment)
- chest congestion
- other flu symptoms
- feeling like utter crap
- friends checking up on me
- OTC cold&flu medication
- laptop, bed
on hand, if needed:
- chicken soup, and saltines
- lots of fruit juice
- several oranges and a couple of grapefruit
- enough tea, bagged or loose, to last at least three months
- instant ginger & honey tea, ditto on quantity
- unread and partially red books
- beads, already pulled for a couple of projects
- yarn & crochet hooks
absent:
- energy to do anything beyond slice bread for toast and nuke water for tea
- ability to concentrate
- desire to read anything - not even to finish Unseen Academicals
- desire for chocolate (you could offer me a Dilettant gran marnier truffle, and I'd just go "meh")
- desire to listen to music (!)
diagnosis:
- flu. And I had the regular flu shot... three weeks ago, I think?
(Also on hand - plenty of cat food. So the Annie-cat & I are good.)
feels like flu
