I hate being sick
Oct. 12th, 2009 10:13 pmI really do. I hate the weakness, the fatigue, the way my brain runs in tight little circles over the same stupid ideas for hours. I hate not being able to sleep when I need it desperately, I hate not being able to work, I hate feeling helpless.
( Details--not too gruesome, but not completely not )
And, of course, I'm exhausted.
Things are not pleasant at work right now--our entire office has just been rearranged, and my new workspace is smaller and mch noisier than my old one. All of this lead to me just sitting at my desk with my face in my hands for extended periods, or running to the toilet. (I wasn't a complete loss--I did get a couple of things done--but I was pretty overwhelmed.) My boss, who is a good one, didn't hesitate for a second to let me go home when I asked, and in fact called later this afternoon to recommend that I stay home tomorrow as well if there's any chance I would need the rest. I am going to sleep in and see how I feel when I wake up.
Still: Being sick. I didn't vote for it.
