Stayed Home Sick

Friday Mar 28, 2008

Sick with Fever

I woke up Thursday afternoon with a fever and I was aching all over, and not to forget the constant stream of nose dripping.

About an hour before it was time to go into work, I decided it would be better to stay home and rest up and hopefully I’ll feel better for the weekend. I knew if I did go in, I would probably end up having to come back home because I was really feeling terrible.

I thought that Wednesday was the worst it would get but I was terribly wrong.

So hopefully tonight I’ll feel a lot better and be able to cope the weekend at work. Just wish the drainage of the nose would stop.

Here’s crossing my fingers to feeling better in the next few hours. Don’t want to miss any more hours from work. People get grumpy and wallet gets lighter.



Coming Around

Saturday Feb 16, 2008

BEar WakingI’m actually starting to come around. The sinuses are still a bit Fu#@ed up though and I also have this annoying dry cough too.

I’m not feeling as bad as I have been the past week though, thankfully!

I’ve been offline for a long time and had everything turned off. My web cam, Desktop cam, Yahoo Messenger, Skype, but had the PC running still for my TV Guide listings. The only time I sat here in front of the computer was to check what was going to be on the Boob Tube.

While I was asleep my computer must have made an update and rebooted, when it rebooted it opened all the apps that I usually have running. The ones I stated that I had shut off above.

Seconds of being turned on, Messages started popping up. Waking me up! Grrrrr!

Dragged my ass out of bed and shut it down.

Well I have to go next door and pick up a few things so the cats can eat, and I can print stuff on the printer. Maybe some beer too for when I get off work in the morning, if they call out to me while I’m over there.

The Drunken Meditator

Saturday Feb 9, 2008

sickYup. It seems there’s an endless supply of the stuff. My head hasn’t turned into a raisin yet from dehydration. The snot flow just continues to go, and go, and go. Apparently from my eyeballs, as Corey pointed out, or as teeni put it, melted brain tissue from overheating, but I said one would need a brain for that to happen, so that theory is blown out of the water.

Work was really busy from the ECMA Awards that are going on all over the city, and because of them the Bars and clubs are allowed to remain open until 4am instead of the usual 2am closing times. So the drunks are probably enjoying that.

Speaking of drunks… There was this one guy that came to the restaurant and sat in the chair and never ordered anything. He just sat upright with his eyes closed. Sorta’ like he was meditating or something but clearly drunk to complete pickled brain state.

NailedThe manager, and the boss both tried to have him leave because he was not ordering anything, and was probably freaking out the other customers. Well he just sat there meditating. So the Boss, supervisor, and the Manager decided to help him out by dragging him out. Well didn’t he start to go all crazy in the lobby! The Boss, supervisor, and Manager apparently had to take him down! Three guys! Had to take this drunken idiot down! I guess he was throwing punches and everything.

Then the cops came, and didn’t the drunken boob decide to take some punches at the female cop! MACE TIME! They planted his face on the frozen pavement and tried to handcuff him. After the struggle they finally managed to get him in the back of the police car and one of the Officers came to the back office to write his report and I guess the guys are pressing charges too.

After that was all over, we were egging the guys on with, “Woah! That’s why you don’t mess with the boss.”, and “Way to go Rocky!” and “Look out here come the tough guys!” They were all sheepish as they walked through the kitchen.

So besides it being super busy, it was pretty entertaining too!

As for the cold, it has moved into my sinuses and chest. My head feels all clogged up and my chest is congested also. The fever is almost gone, but still there enough to make my skin all clammy. With it being in my chest, it causes me to be out of breath really fast when I do anything taxing. Sucks to have asthma and a cold at the same time.

So I’m going in again tonight to do it all over again. Last night went very smoothly and the time flew bye fast, so lets hope tonight goes as well, and hopefully I’ll have some more stories like the drunken meditator!

Where Does Snot Come From?

Friday Feb 8, 2008

sick

So it’s 4am as I write this, and my nose is running like a fire hose on full blast. Where the hell does all this snot come from???

I stayed home from work today because I was burning up all day. I lay in bed watching TV, OH and by the way LOST just threw me a few MORE curve balls dammit!

I think I’m on my third roll of TP now, after the box of Kleenex is empty. My small desk trash can is full of nothing but TP and Kleenex.

The fever has subsided a bit, so hopefully when I wake up later today before work I’ll be feeling a lot better.

I’ll also be making an appointment with my doctor for Monday, because I have been getting sick way to many times, and it’s past the point of normal. I’ve been sick with the Cold, Flue, and some other bug withing the last month and a half. I don’t believe a person is supposed to get sick that often unless there’s something wrong with them.

Well I guess I lay back down and watch Supernatural and Smallville and then take some nighttime medicine and go to sleep.

But before I go, seriously here. Where does all this snot come from??? I swear if I just let it drip it would probably fill a shot glass in a minute. Not that I would be doing snot shooters or anything. If it keeps going like it is, my heads going to shrivel up like a raisin from dehydration.

OK, I think I grossed you all out enough. I’m going to go watch my shows now, but if anybody has an answer, leave a comment.
