I got better!
I'm definitely on the mend, thank goodness. Now I just need to worry about fixing the academic mess I created for myself by being too sick to work all weekend. *sigh*
My friends and family are wonderful, though. Particularly Frances and Steph who came and gave me a surprise visit yesterday just when I needed it most. I was feeling terribly lonely after three days of being shut up alone in my room without even music or movies, but I didn't feel it would be right to ask people to visit me and risk getting them sick. It made my night to have my friends come by and visit with me. I'm also glad for Mike, who spent time with me last night as well. First in the 6th floor lounge and then for a walk around campus. It's a great comfort to have people who care about you nearby when you're sick. Interestingly, I apparently tend to feel better in the evenings/early nights, so I had enough energy to walk about, and my throat wasn't half so sore, so I could actually talk. Mike has come to be an interesting mix of friend and family (among other things, I guess) for me.
I have a funny store about a red wagon to share, but that's for another time, I think. I'm getting tired again, now.
