"Horrible cold with the worst timing ever"? Turned out to be flu. Possibly swine flu, if we keep in mind there's no bloody difference in symptoms, but who knows?
Tuesday, I flipflopped on "I'm fine, really!" to "oh god, I'm going to diiiie" depending on whether I was active (a-okay) or not (dedd). Then I woke on Wednesday. My apartment is stuffy and warm and I'm sensitive to heat. I was freezing. Was still exhausted after going to bed at seven the previous evening. Was so dizzy I could hardly get out of bed, let alone think about going to class.
Okay, so I thought about going to class. But my mom convinced me it was worse than a cold and no, I should not go to class.
God, I'm so behind on homework now. I save all my Thursday homework until Wednesday, because Thursday homework sucks and there's so much of it. I slept through over half of Wednesday. And when I wasn't asleep, I was dizzy, coughy, and miserable. Yeah, no homework got done. I tried to NaNo when I was awake, but the screen hurt my head, oh lord, so much.
By Thursday, I could have gone to class, but probably shouldn't have, so... I didn't. Because I couldn't even imagine feeling well enough and thus didn't set my alarm. Slept right through it. It was wonderful yet horribly guilt-inducing. And it's a good thing I didn't go, really. I mean, I felt hungry for the first time since Tuesday lunchtime today. And I hadn't eaten anything on Wednesday except for Jolly Ranchers (for throat pain) and one cup of broth. Thursday didn't go much different, minus the soup broth, adding two pancakes in the late evening. At least I'm saving on groceries. I guess.
I wasn't crazy-dizzy anymore at least, just miserable, so I managed to 1) make some progress in Persona 4 for the first time since August by starting over on Beginner difficulty, and 2) aaaalmost catch up to NaNoWriMo again. The latter made me stay up way too late, however, and I had another dizzy attack. Oi.
Today, it is just an icky cold. I can eat without fear of vomiting and walk without worry of fainting. I still wouldn't go to class (if I had a Friday class) in case of passing it on to classmates or irritating it though. So, I did the smart thing and made a mental list of what homework needed done in what order, then caught up on Persona 4- wait. SHIT.
