Dear World,
I am sick and have an evil lurgy. You are evil, World, evil.
Have been sick since Tuesday afternoon. I'm venturing onto the computer for a short while right now, but will probably retreat to my chair by the radiator soon. Bleh.
Saw the doctor yesterday and she muttered something about a virally laryngitisy type of thing that's been going around. I should feel better in a day or two. I currently have absolutely no voice. If I push really hard, I can make a sort of squeaky noise on some word accents, but that makes my throat hurt even more so I'm not doing that. It makes talking on the telephone rather awkward.
Obviously, I am not at work. Even if I could make noises, I'm currently having coughing fits that make me rather dangerous to drive. And I'm feeling generally very icky. I felt less icky yesterday so I'm not sure why I feel more icky today.
A diet of soup and ice-cream is getting rather wearing. However, I ventured into soft scrambled eggs territory this morning and I may try yoghurts this afternoon.
At first I thought this was the cold that my sister brought home with her at the weekend. Except this thing shows no sign of developing into a cold (apparently Sis felt rather ill for a couple of days before the cold developed into a bunged up type cold so I thought that was what I had) and she didn't get an incredibly sore throat with associated voice loss. So it's possible that I had the bad timing to pick up something totally different. Go me!
Sometimes, the world sucks mightily.
