I need this like I need another hole in my head

I took yesterday off since I haven't taken squat for vacation days and have too many "use or lose" days. I thought one day - even though I'm buried in work - would be ok.

Aaaand guess what? I now have influenza. Great. I went home around lunchtime (hopefully I didn't spread my cooties too far and wide) and have been quite the zombie since. JuneBug seems sympathetic while JonJon is now being a drama queen - the dork.

So clearly I'll be off tomorrow but I hope that's it for a while. Interestingly I'm the type of person that never seems to get a fever no matter how sick I am. In fact my usual body temp is around 97.9. Not long ago I was up to 102. Talk about stewing in my own juices.

Doing fluids, rest (kitty permitting) and Aleve.

Thanks. Getting there, albeit slowly.

Oddly, I also found a big ugly bruise on my left side. It's yellowish so I guess it happened at least a few days ago but I don't recall anything happening. I'm fallin' apart here! lol

As are we all. I'm getting ready to soak in an Epson salts bath.
