sickie (TMI)
It was early afternoon at work when the scratchy sore throat turned nasty.
I sneezed and presto! Bloody yellow phlegm wad!
The coughing started shortly afterwards. I’d already had a bad sinus headache all damned day, but straight to bloody phlegm wads? My man didn’t ever get any of that! NOT FAIR!
So that, combined with pre-george pains made me one cranky bitch for sure. I got through my day without speaking much to anyone at work (but was my usual charming self on the phones), and got the hell out of there. I made it home in just under an hour, thanks to the fact that so many people are still on vacation.
I apologized to my boyfriend in advance, saying I’m as much at fault as he is for getting me sick cuz I let him get all cozy with me, BUT! I got sick and have no extra money to allocate towards doctor visits or even over the counter (OTC) medication.
To recap:
In the past ten days, I have:
- sprained my ankle
- thrown out my back
- obtained a sinus infection
And in the next 24 - 48 hours, I will also get george. And I’m still recovering from the first two issues on the list.
I am welcome to be as mopey as I please.
