Mar. 10th, 2008 01:33 amThis weekend was not fun.
I got up on Saturday and I started to feel a little achy and congested, and I started to feel worse as the day went on, but I was hoping I could just sleep it off overnight. I got up today and I felt much better, I could breathe, I didn't feel achy, and I was ready to celebrate my recovery. Like, 20 minutes after I got up, it like, rushed back at me all of a sudden. I was sucking it up, trying not to take a nap or anything because I didn't want to mess up my sleep schedule for school, but by 1 or so I was feeling so awful I abandoned that and went off to bed. Except I didn't sleep. For like five hours I just tossed back and forth alternating between freezing and burning up. Eventually I got up and sat around for a while but then I ended up in bed again doing the same thing and feeling almost too weak to get up. At this point I was getting so frustrated because I just wanted to sleep and escape the cycle for a while but I couldn't fall asleep, so I got up, tried to eat something, and took some Motrin to try and ease the pain in my head. It helped a LOT and I don't know why I didn't take anything sooner, and that's where I am now. I'm definitely not well, but at least now I can walk around normally and the achiness is dulled. I'm not going to school tomorrow because there's no way I'm going to get over this with the like, 5 hours of sleep I'm going to be getting, and with all that sweating I really need a shower. I'm sleepy now but I've been putting off going to bed just because, you know, I've spent all day in bed and I'm enjoying being up and about even if my whole family's gone to bed and there's not really any people online.
I am aware of how rambly this entry is but I still don't feel like my brain is entirely present.
