I have seen the face of death and I have shit right on it.
I am finally back at work. Much to my dismay, I have spent the last 72 hours in bed - alone, sick, and miserable. Sometimes it’s nice to have a day or two off. Sometimes it SUCKS. This time, in particular, I hated it.
The flu is an ugly disease that, in the past, I have been lucky enough to avoid. Looking back on my history of illnesses, I can’t remember actually getting the flu. I have had bad colds and the like, but never an actual case of the influenza.
I still feel weak and cranky and have no appetite to speak of. My cough still scares small children and my breath…well…Paul has no eyebrows left on his face due to my breathing on him all night.
Tonight is our big November Fundraiser for the Theatre Company. Thank God that I feel somewhat okay. There is a lot of work to be done and I have just enough energy left to do it. We hope to raise upwards of $1,000 tonight. I don’t see any reason why we won’t. We have 4 DJ’s rotating music until all hours of the night and many have RSVP’d.
I don’t plan on staying there any later than 12am, but you never know. Sometimes beer helps one to feel better when they have the flu. (snicker snicks)
Thanks for all of the great advice everyone gave me. I do have a new toothbrush and I am constantly washing my hands. I am drinking lots of liquids and I am eating the healthiest of healthy foods.
I have never wanted to beat a sickness so badly in my life.
Stay healthy y’all.
The flu makes no exceptions.
Except for bodybuilders.
Who DOESN’T make exceptions for bodybuilders?
