dead of plague

instead of getting BETTER like I'd hoped, I'm only getting worse. Fever + headache + sinus problems too, now.

When my roommate is my partner for a class that's "missing one day of teaching is an automatic F for the semester" and we're both sick with the same thing that results in LACK OF VOICE… Teaching is going to be an interesting adventure today. In any case, skipping first class, going back to bed.

edit TEACHING WAS AN INTERESTING ADVENTURE TODAY. We usually teach for half an hour, but my roommate managed to pull her voice back enough that we "taught" (read: she said the words and I did hand gestures) for all of five minutes, and then we set them to colouring. Fourth graders loev colouring so that was all nice and good 8Db

ended up sleeping through my 1:15 class. In fact, I slept most of the day and will probably go to bed early tonight as well. Aleeve got rid of most of my fever, so that's good, and Ricola is helping the cough a bit.

Have you gone to student health?

....n :(

Gee I wonder why you're getting sicker.

:/
I've been taking care of myself! This kind of thing usually goes away on its own in a few days. And the student health center is about a ten minutes walk away. ....And I wouldn't know what to say. "Hi I have a sore throat so I thought I should come in for what is probably actually nothing"?

"Hi I can't talk and need a note to excuse me from a class so I don't fail." And persistent lack of health usually warrants a trip. IDK maybe logic is bad.

my roommate apparently informed our professor yesterday that we're both missing voices s-so that takes care of the "notify me at least one day in advance" but not the "make sure your teammate is covering for you" which is what I'm very :? about now orz

If nothing else, go get an MC to cover your arse.

Clearly if you're dying of the plague it's not nothing, so go dammit.

OKAY GOOD

seriously there's nothing better for sickness than a) too much sleep and b) too much water

[identity profile] mildmay.livejournal.com 2008-10-14 08:39 pm (UTC)(link)
D:

Take care of yourself! Tea with lemon is good for the throat (at least it always helps mine a bit). If you like tea.

the lemon is the bit I'm having problems with :(b

I was inhaling honey water and Earl Grey tea like I was trying to make my blood turn delicious or something when I was sick. It helps :D

[identity profile] piecrumbs.livejournal.com 2008-10-15 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
...pfffft
my blood is probably sweet by now, considering how much honey I've drank down.
I have 膨大海 for tea though. mmm ♥

[identity profile] evilstorm.livejournal.com 2008-10-15 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, honey. Best excuse to down way too many sweet drinks ever. Though to be fair, it does have some very interesting antibacterial properties. Quite bizarre.

Never tried that tea, I don't think. Ouww.

Nah, feel bad for you, you're in a worse part of it.

Although the cough doesn't go away and I'm still having to force myself to get up after 14 hours of sleep. Seriously. AND I'M STILL EXHAUSTED. That just shouldn't happen.
