Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck.
I don't know where I caught it from, because it's pretty bad. Energy-draining, rocks-in-your-throat bad. I'm staying home from work today - and since it's Friday, I only have to use one sick day. Normally that's a good thing, but I really don't want to miss this weekend, which
ratzeo and I have set aside to celebrate our anniversary.
I know, it's not that big of a deal. Plans getting rearranged is annoying, but usually not worth angsting over. It's just that we've been trying to find a day for us - not even figure out what to do on that day, but just find a date that we can actually have - for a few weeks now. Part of this is because we haven't actually been alone together for more than an hour or two at a time (barring, say, sleeping) for those few weeks. I've been at work, he's been in class, or we've been doing group activities or playing game - the last two being, of course, a lot of fun, but no way to celebrate an anniversary.
And to think that we're being thwarted by this? By my stupid, exercise-and-vitamin-C-fortified body still getting sick. Argh.
I'm going to stay in today, flooding my body with soup and tea, eating oranges, and sleeping whenever possible. And tomorrow, if I'm still sick ... well, I don't want to think about that right now. I'm just working on today first.
And, on the bright side, I get to avoid the shit at work from all the people rushing to meet Monday's application deadline. Ugh. I've had to deal with a lot of annoying people already (either entitlement junkies or hold-my-hand types), so a day off is a relief. I just feel bad that I have to pass that stress on to other people. :/ I guess that's another reason to get better, so I can help out on Monday.
