Sicko

Ugh, I've been not well. Started with a sore throat the day I went for my interview and later that day turned into a full fledged something or other.
Yesterday I actually called in sick... and found out today the cook went home early, so my poor boss was there alone all day. Everyone pitched in to wash dishes. I did go in today, but barely made it through, thankfully for me it was a very very slow day. And, the special was already cooked.
I was OUT of it. All day. Trying to formulate thoughts, and unable to do so. Listing to starboard on more than one occasion. The cook and I had a 'fuck it' kind of day, just figured we had to get through the day any way we could as no help was on the horizon. So we did, we made it through.
Not looking forward to tomorrow, it's almost always busy on a Saturday. I'm feeling marginally better, and even made it to a meeting, but wasn't really there. But it is good that I went. Just feeling like I need to just get through the day.
Feeling floaty, not really grounded, stuffy head and all that. Fine until someone tries to communicate, then I kind of loose my sense of being earth-bound. Weird what being ill can do to your mind.
Talked to L.; F is out of the hospital now and doing well and C.'s dad is fine, it was a gall stone causing his jaundice and he's going to be a-ok.
I'm so glad to hear that everyone I was worried about is going to be alright.
I had some cereal with a banana for dinner although my roommates made pesto... just too rich for me right now.
Really just want to be left alone since I can't really talk well. I know what I want to say but it doesn't come out. I must seem like I'm high.
Don't want to take any more of that Tussin shit, makes me want to vomit, the taste and the effect. Guh. I will though if I get more congested in my chest. I just hate that crap.
I hope I feel better in the morning.
