Hands Full of Glitter and Tofu : 2011 Day 235 (Tuesday 23 August) - Yet More Sickness, Thankfully More Eureka

Never has one man been so grateful for one TV show.


I was home again today, chained to my bed - only figuratively; while some kinkiness may be fun, I am pretty it's not something I want to do when my lungs are full of phlegm and my neck glands are swollen (according to the very nice doctor I saw today) - and while I think I will spend my sick days doing lots of stuff I can't do when I am at work, the truth is I am usually too...um... sick to do any of those things soooo...

I lie in bed, drink Lemsips, throw down aspirins, sleeps lots and watch my new favourite TV show, which is so quirky, fun and full of just the sort of distracting pop cultureness that you need when your body once again plays host to the wrong kind of virus.


MEMO TO SELF - check if there is a good kind of virus. My scantly recalled year 8 biology knowledge is failing me at the moment (not that it ever really proved to be of much benefit)

Hands Full of Glitter and Tofu : 2011 Day 234 : Sickerer and Sickerer

Yep I woke up even sicker today with what feels like a sore lump in my throat, a deep, throaty, and thoroughly unsexy cough coupled with near immovable chest congestion. I feel so tired that all I really want to do is sleep which I guess is my body's way of saying "STOP BEING AN EXTROVERT LONG ENOUGH FOR ME TO HEAL DUMBASS!" (think Red, the dad from That 70s Show saying this.)

At least the time off work has given me a chance to watch the remaining episodes of Eureka season 1... well at least when I wasn't drowsily closing my eyes and missing segments.

Heal thyself body!

I will now sleep...

( I am not vomiting but the images used above are so much fun that I had to use them)
