Holy hell it's been an interesting, hallucinatory, freakish couple of days.
Against everyone's better judgment I decided to try and make it to school on Wednesday anyway because I am AN HERO. They were not too thrilled that I went in with a fever but couldn't find a substitute to replace me. The principal told me I could go home if I wanted and they would just cancel English for the day, it wouldn't have been a big deal...but I told her I could make it through the day. The only reason I said that is because I was feverishly insane and out of my mind at that point.
The entire day was a weird dream. I can't even describe it.
I was "with it" enough to make a plan for the substitute I would arrange for the second I got home though.
I got home and went to sleep at 5 pm, woke up to eat around 9 pm and watched some TV, then went back to sleep until 9 Am today...I've been kind of in and out of things all day long. It's been weird.
I still have a fever and will most likely miss tomorrow too, which is SUCH A FUCKING WASTE because it's a ped day, and all I have to do tomorrow is lesson plan which I have to do anyway, but doing it at a ped day at school is a million times better because a) I'll get paid for it, and b) I have a printer and photocopier at my disposal, which I desperately need and do not have access to here. OH THIS SUCKS. I guess I'll see how I am in the morning. They won't be happy if I go back tomorrow, still sick. Although I won't be around kids and I won't even really be around the rest of the staff even because I'll be alone in my classroom in the lonely basement not bothering anyone.
Still, I don't see how I can possibly wake up at 6 tomorrow morning. Ugh, what a shitty situation.
Also, my antibiotics cost me $45! Fuck! That was my money for this week. I am so broke. I don't get paid for another week and even then I only have 3 weeks left to my contract.
To add insult to injury, I've had to turn down 2 easy, morning-only subbing jobs this week (that's like $200) because of my being sick.
Boo to all of this!
This is such a shitty, shitty, shitty, shitty week.

However, Mike woke me up to catch Dominic Monaghan being interviewed on the Bonnie Hunt show. That was pretty cool. :D

You're still sick? I hope you get rid of that bug soon!

I took several naps today, and after I woke up from the latest one (around 6:30 pm) I realized that I'm FINALLY starting to feel a LOT better. FINALLY! As of tomorrow, this flu will have lasted 1 week. That's the longest I remember ever having had the flu in like, forever!

Out of curiosity, do you know why they prescribed antibiotics for the flu? Or do they think you have something else too?

The doctor I saw at the walk-in clinic on Sunday said it was bronchitis. Yuck!
