I got sick today.
I went for a run at 7:30 this morning, got back, and had this funny feeling in my stomach. This then progressed to my lungs. Around noon I started getting the chills, when I was sorting clothes for college. I knew it was going to be something bad, I could just tell. And it's the middle of summer here.
I took a nap at 1, going to bed shivering. The average temperature here today was 80F. But I still went to bed wrapped in a blanket, wearing a sweater. I slept for two hours until 3ish, I guess. I felt like I slept for twelve.
I didn't want to leave my room, so I camped out, kept the shades drawn, and gave the Wiki some attention. The times probably aren't correct, but at some point around 4is I fell asleep again. Again, slept for two hours that felt like twelve. I got up, ate dinner that had no taste, and went back to sleep. I woke at 7:30, walked outside for some fresh air, still shivering with a temp of 102F. I got back into bed at 8, slept until 10, again, feeling like an eternity.
Constantly shifting between freezing and burning, closing my eyes to see purple and green rings invade my vision.
I woke up at 11. Everyone was still up. It was interesting to note how slow time seemed to be passing. I went downstairs, said goodnight, came back to my room and closed my eyes. For a half hour I laid there, feeling like I was sleeping, but knowing I could wake up at any time.
In the past hour and a half, I started to sweat the fever out. I grabbed a can of ginger ale and made some toast. Now I'm deciding to watch an episode of Sense8 or two. Don't know when or how I'll get back to sleep.
It's going to be an interesting night. And that's my post for today
Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day for the Forum.
