I've been dealing with a cold the past week and just being generally miserable. Lots of coughing and sneezing and mucus all over the place and ugh, it's been very gross and I'm so over it. My throat was hurting the first couple of days, but that's been replaced by pain in my chest/back every time I cough or sneeze. It's extremely painful, like getting stabbed all over with needles, and more than mildly worrying, so I hope it goes away quickly. I'm sure my coworkers will appreaciate this cold going away too, since I haven't taken off even though I kind of wanted to. I hope I don't get anyone else sick...
I've also been going back to bed pretty much as soon as I get back from home, which hasn't been very good for my productivity. I have so much to do! I've always got exchange fics to write, and this week is when I'm finishing up
yjfest and beginning
wipbigbang, so that's even more work. Plus I'm supposed to be having a girls' night tomorrow with dinner and going to a bar, so being well would definitely be good for that. A friend I haven't seen in a while will be there (bc she keeps just... not coming to group get togethere for some reason). I'm hoping that will be good, but we'll just have to see about that too lol
On the up side, this cold is better than March last year, where I had a kidney infection. Or I guess it's better. The pain is probably about the same, I just don't have the fever and shakes this time and have a cough instead. I don't get sick very often at all, so I really hope this March illness thing doesn't continue!
