I which I winge melodramatically
Urgh. I am so ill. Whilst I appreciate it's only a cold and I'm not actually dying, I feel like crap, everything hurts, nothing tastes right and I can't sleep. It's SO UNFAIR. I am allegedly going to London tomorrow to see all my girls and so_vieh, who I missed out on seeing a couple of weeks ago because I had to cancel my annual leave and work. I was (am) so looking forward to it, and now I just feel like crap and it's not fair because WTF, can I just have a life, for once, please?
Plus having a cold whilst the weather is so lovely is the strangest feeling. Everything is too hot and strange and I almost feel like I'm hallucinating. The world is all wobbly.
BUT THE ABSOLUTE WORST THING?! When I feel bad, I cuddle the hammies. Except hamsters can catch human colds, which can lead to life-threatening respiratory infections, so I can't touch them. The past two days I have opened their cages only long enough to give them food and water, armed with alcohol gel. And they are so sad about it. :( Maggie in particular is scratching at the glass begging to come out, and giving me sad "Mummy don't you love me no more?" eyes. I hate it. :( So imma just gonna sit here and whine, and I don't even care how pathetic that makes me.
