A couple people have asked me how I'm feeling, and I haven't had anything new to post lately, so I thought I'd go over that. Well, I'm still recovering from the light case of pneumonia, and I'm fairly certain it was pneumonia again even if I couldn't afford the chest x-ray. This is because it's still doing some ass kicking. I'm much better than I was in that I have enough energy to go to work, but I'm still pretty tired and achy most days. The antibiotics definitely did me a lot of good, though. An unfortunate side effect is they killed the good stomach bacteria too. My stomach has been wonky the last week, but that will clear up. So, there's no way this bout of illness didn't progress into fun lung-related shenanigans with how bad I've been feeling in general. I would have recovered and felt lots better than this by now if it had been just a plain old sinus infection. I'm glad that the job was so nice about it and just took my doctor's notes without making a big stink about it like past jobs have done.
Anyway, I'm still finding it hard to get well rested. I keep waking up to use the bathroom or something and have trouble getting back to sleep sometimes. When I get home from work, I'm good for a couple hours, then I get veeeeeeeeerrrrrrrry sleepy. (Usually I can stay up four hours if I want to.) I think my tired, sick ol' body just needs some rest.
In fact, I think I'll head there right now. :)
work,
sick,
