I have the flu

February 17, 2005 1:38 PM from

I feel...
tired, old, worn out, hungry, hot, cold, bothered
miserable, I want my mommy....

I feel
achy, weak, limp, listless
I know they're words with the same meanings
but I really don't care....

It's been a while since I've been sick with the flu or is it the cold?
I have no idea, but a bug is going around, and I've caught it
My baby had it, she caught it from her brother
I caught it from her because she kept slobbering kisses all over my face
And insisted that I eat from her plate.....

I thought I was strong
But then I'm not so young anymore....
Ah well.....this simply means I need to take more vitamins
I don't right now, and that's probably why I caught this so easily

Ah the pain...head hurts, cough, cough, coughhhhhhhhhhhhhh
sigh
limped into work today....hopefully get something done
The pain.....
I'm gonna have another hot toddy when I go home
something nice to look forward to!
Sniff.....

Ugh, so sorry to hear that. I have blown my nose more times today than I can count, so I feel your pain (oh, and a bottle of Advil in the backpack - I literally feel your pain!).

Oh Blue, you've got it too? I'm taking it Advil too, the one for cold and sinus. Feel better.

Moderate, I will drink lots of fluids...it also makes me feel so hungry all the time which is weird.

If you can, a cold pill and lots of sleep is all you need to make it go away.

I found that if I feel hungry, it's a good sign. I believe that it's just the body using up energy to fight off the infection, so one feels hungry.

Raven I never knew that, thanks.

Thanks Danny. It's my third day and I'm feeling a little better. My voice is not yet back to normal though.
