One week with a killer cough.

Feb 18, 2005 08:39

I got sick last friday. It was awesome. I started coughing as soon as I got out of my Biology lab, and managed to miss everything that weekend. Coughing, chills, fever, congestion, and body aches all contributed not only to staying in bed the whole weekend, but not sleeping too. I've been to a grand total of three class sessions this week, and every time I think I'm getting better, I feel like poop again. Speaking of poop, I drank so much Gatorade over the weekend that by Monday my poop had turned a very bright blue. Strangely my urine stayed the same color, I have yet to figure out how to change it other colors besides drinking lots of water (or from what I hear, eating asparagus to turn it green). Emma was a trooper and went to the store and bought me all the sicky essentials: Gatorade, Canada Dry, Nyquil, cherry cough drops with menthol, tissues, and the wonder that is Cup Noodles. Due to not having the homework time over the weekend, missing countless classes, and being sick enough not to be coherent enough for homework, I am woefully behind. I had reading questions due Monday along with a paper on the Cantebury tales, this afternoon I have pre lab questions as well as a formal lab report to turn in. I could not go to lab, but it's mandatory and I believe the teacher can kick me out of the class if I miss just once. It has happened before.
