Jesus fuck.

Just as I finished work last night, I started feeling nauseous.

I then spent the whole night getting up to go to the bathroom and feeling like I needed to be sick the whole time.

Both seem to have settled down a little bit this morning, and I've raided my medicine supply... The nausea gave way to a headache (and body-wide) ache like a hangover, which flummoxed me for a minute before I realised I've lost salts and fluids, so I'm dehydrated. There's something mortally unfair about hangover symptoms without an appropriate drinking session to blame them on - I've drank LESS last week, as work's fairly harsh at the moment.

Feeling very, very slightly more human now and thanking my absolute lucky stars that Corben's so easy to get along with. If he has some nibbles and some kids TV, he's content for long enough that I can get a much needed extra bit of nap-time. Poor little bugger, I'm no good company this morning, but thank fuck he's not a screecher, I think I'd die.

He seems to be checking up on me every half hour or so, lifting the pillow off my head, smiling at me, then plopping it back down so I can kip. And he's only used my genitals as a climbing frame once so far. I was too tired to reap vengeance, so he lives another day.

I don't believe in them in the least, but if you have magical hippy vibe mind-powers, focus your crystal orb on my coordinates and await further instructions.

Ugh. If I worked for a normal company, I'd take a couple of days off, but as it is, I'm behind with work, so that just means a few days of feeling like shite AND working overtime.

killll meeeeee

sounds like a really bad case of the flu, vitamin c, liquids, and soup are probably your best friends at this point.

Flu is a respiratory virus, sounds more like mild norovirus.

Eek. Get better soon, dude. Recommendation on the other comment is a good one.

Get yourself some lucozade sport or powerade. They contain the kinds of salts and electrolytes you lose through sweating, but they make for good vom recovery too.

Hippy healing energies are funny!
