I. Am. Sick.

[kevyn]

UCK.

It started Thursday night with a cough, and a runny nose that kept draining into my chest. Then I started having zero appetite, massive gas (burping and farting), aches and pains, headache. By Friday night I was having chills, night sweats, diarrhea, and waking up to go to the bathroom every hour.

Been drinking lots and lots of water and taking Comtrex and Acetaminophen.

Dylan took care of me Friday and Saturday. What a wonderful boyfriend!

I think the worst is behind me, and have come home to sleep in my own bed, but I am still very weak. Hurts to smoke, so I got patches and straws to keep the nicotine monkey at bay.

I think this is the flu.

And to make things worse, it's cold and gray and wet and snowy outside.

Will update later. Right now, I'm going back to bed.

Yea Yogurt! I've discovered The Greek Goods brand traditional Greek honey yogurt.

Oh my gods this stuff is better than ice cream!

Damn, that bug went north apparently. Lots of hot tea and rest and don't give it to Dylan unless you want to return the bedside nurse favor.

Feel better soon!

Poor baby.

Garlic. It's a natural antibiotic and antiviral. I swear by it.

BTW, we still need to pick a weekend when lj user=pocketlama> and I can come visit you. Double date? ;)

Thanks.

I'd love you guys to visit. Pretty much any weekend works... I am off every Friday, also.

Okay, I'm picking March 1. I'll let Mac know, and we'll see you then!

Super!

Only caveat: on Saturday mornings, I go to Bellingham Radical Faerie coffee from 10-noon. Mac knows all about these functions, and you'd be welcome there, though if you want to wait until after noon, that's fine too.

It's late (for me)... I meant also to say that we're sending you healing energy, and that the visit will be when you're feeling better.
