Urgh
I feel like I've been sick forever, just with peaks of ups and downs. Really, since about Rosh Hashanah it feels like i've been fighting off something-or-other over and over again. It's really not a big deal -- usually just post-nasal drip and general malaise kind of stuff -- but now I'm in a lovely high point in terms of symptoms, where i'm stuffed up to high heaven including my ears in such a way that i can't concentrate enough to read things i WANT to, let alone things I have to and don't want to (hi, studying for physics test on wednesday! i wish i cared about you. Might be able to bring myself to study more.)
For all of today, it's been at least twice as much double-taking or not hearing correctly or needing to re-read something as usual.
Normal people, normal problems. Maybe I should see a doctor, but the two scenarios i can think of are "there's nothing we can do" or "you should have come here sooner", and i really don't want to listen to a doctor spend their precious 15 minutes lecturing me about how i should have been in there weeks ago.
Also, the weather sucks. Related, y/n?
So here I sit drinking a licorice tasting herbal tea infusion thing wanting to just sit and talk with people who seem to think sleeping from 8 till god knows when -- and in my space too, so i can't listen to music or watch things without waking them up and/or feeling MORE uncomfortable about them being here -- is more important. Which it probably is. I get kind of selfish when I'm sick.
Huh, apparently whenever my eyes tear up it burns like crazy. This is notable because the last many times I have teared up (torn up? produced tears?) it has been because of onions and, once, trial contact lenses, which produce burny eye feelings much more expectedly than suddenly getting a bit weepy. I have to go back to the eye doctor to talk about the trial lenses anyway, so maybe I should bring this up...
Ok, guess that's all. Sorry to have the first entry in so long be so blechhy.
