Ha! I wrote the following paragraph at work today, but then never posted.
I think I’m getting sick. Or already am sick. Or something. I woke up about Monday with a sore throat, so I’ve kinda been chamomile tea and lozenging it. Then Wed morning I woke up and there was this golf-ball sized feeling in my throat that I had to swallow around. And it's just gotten worse in the last two days. It hurts. I can take cold or flu meds, but the rest of me really feels alright. A bit tired but that’s not unusual. But my throat! It hurts! I’m worried it’s strep throat or tonsillitis, both of which I seem to get on a yearly basis. It’s like they trade off or something. But man, I just really don’t want to trek to a doctor/nurse to find out.
RIIIIIIGHT.
I felt so crap by the end of work that I schlepped over to the late-night clinic at Finchley Hospital and sure enough, tonsillitis. CRAP. (Although at least it wasn't Swine Flu like Rach was convinced it must be!) Anyway they gave me penicillin and told me to sleep, advice which as you can see I am taking to heart.
I hate being sick. It makes me want someone to cuddle, someone who will make me soup and tuck me in and then curl up beside me. Being sick when you're single sucks because you have to take care of yourself. Ah well. I don't feel too bad, just my stupid throat.
And my parents are in town tomorrow, so that's something.
Oh! Also there is a battle of awesome women in fandom going on, so everyone go here and vote. This is the first round (64) so get in there NOW. I'm cool with pretty much all of the results so far except the fact that Donna is in danger of not winning! People VOTE DONNA NOBLE! She's too awesome to be out in the first round. (Also CJ Cregg (The West Wing) vs. Temperance Brennan (Bones) is looking like a tight fight.)
