I don't fucking believe it.
I'm ill again!!!
It sucks so much, because it's pretty much the same thing I had last May and it's a really misery. Even though the worst of it will be over in a couple of days, it's accompanied by one of those lingering coughs. Yuck! It started on Wednesday night and I was off work yesterday with it too. I would have written this then, but I couldn't sit upright for long enough, without getting dizzy. My bod never gets ill by half measures.
It's weird though, I'm kind of sensitive to drugs, so I only take mild ones and only when I really need them. That said, I'm not sure if it was the paracetamol or the virus that was making me have...well, hallucinations really. For one thing, I was lying on the sofa, dozing and watching a stand up comedy video in a little blanket coccoon, when I realised that directly in my eyeline was a large wooden spoon, standing up in the drainer in the kitchenette. I ended up staring fixedly at the spoon for the better part of twenty minutes, until I became sure that it was the one doing the stand up routine that I could hear. Then I rolled over to have some of my juice, saw the guy on the tv and thought to myself 'Hey, that guy's stolen the spoon's routine. Bastard'. It was very odd.
Then later in the evening, I started watching crufts, mostly because I thought it would help me sleep. Then I saw this adorable long haired spaniel running towards the camera, and started calling it. Then I realised I was going nuts and went to bed.
Mind you, it's all made up for by the awesome dreams I have when I'm ill. This morning I dreamed that Goliath from Gargoyles (did anyone else watch that show? It was awesome http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gargoyles_(TV_series)) had been killed, but his electrical energy was still floating around, like in The Return of Superman, and the other Gargoyles turned up at the library and asked for volunteers to help them get this robot body that they could put him in until they could clone a biological one. So I volunteered and found out we had to steal this robot from in a church. There's just something so right about breaking into an Anglican church to help a guy named Goliath. Anyway, we did it and he was really pleased with the robot body, because it was like a cool demony looking version of Inspector Gadget and he had a phone in his shoulder and big metal claws and stuff. It was cool.
