Virus
I've been really, really sick these past few days. I've had a fever over 100 degrees and I never get fevers. It hit me hard on Monday with a sore throat, fever Monday night and I couldn't speak almost on Monday. I ended up at the doctor's Tuesday and Wednesday. I thought it was the flu because of the high fever and weird symptoms, but two flu tests later, I'm flu-free. Could of used a flu-cation, though. They make you stay home for 5 days if you get the flu and I call it a flu-cation. Hahah.
Anyway, I feel bad enough inconveniencing my co-workers as it is, so even though I'm not well enough yet, I'm going back to work. My fever is down, so I guess that is good enough reason to go. I hope my voice doesn't give out. :(
I have a free trial to Hulu in Japan. It doesn't have a lot of stuff, but it has some. So while I was eating ice cream and trying to cool my fever, I was watching stuff online. That was nice, I guess. It was nice to be able to watch not Japanese TV. I have a feeling that this weekend I will try to coop myself up in the house and avoid social interactions as much as possible.
Yesterday I was looking at jobs in America and, after doing the math, even if I got a job that paid 30,000 a year, I wouldn't have enough money to support myself alone. With the price of rent and with loan payments, I would be left over with a whopping 350 a month or something. x.x To be able to live comfortably, I'd have to be making like 50,000 a year. *cue laugh track* Wow. I guess I'd better stay here for a little while longer and try to save more money. Geeze. I don't have a lot left at the end of the month, but if I don't go out, I'd have a lot more. I have enough to be able to travel a little. Guess I have it pretty good here. Which is the reason I came back to begin with, of course.
Okay, lunch and then getting ready for work.
