The flu

I can’t remember the last time I’ve felt this horrible. I had been looking forward to this weekend for quite some time, but instead I ended up feeling about as miserable as I have in a long while. Meg and I were headed to the Williamsburg outlets on Saturday, and then to Court and Bryan’s house in Richmond for a Labor Day weekend party. While we were wandering around the insanely crowded outlets, though, I started feeling bad. As the day went on, I started to feel worse and worse. I ended up having a fever that night, and waking up at least 20 times. I was tossing and turning all night long.


By morning, I had a really bad sore throat, still felt feverish, and just didn’t want to be around anyone for fear of getting someone else sick. The last thing I would have wanted was to pass on whatever I had to someone else. So Meg and I decided to end our trip a little early, and we headed home early Sunday afternoon. I pretty much slept the entire car ride home, and then rested the rest of the day Sunday. I’m still pretty miserable, but I’m at least thankful that today is a holiday.

My biggest dilemma is that I only have two more days left at my current place of work, and I just don’t see how I could call in sick either of those days. So I’ll be back at work tomorrow, but I pray that I don’t give any of my co-workers whatever little bug I it is that I have…
