Voltie — she/her Posted 4 years ago ( 2020/08/17 18:54:57 )


My job was giving out free hot dogs to the employees on saturday
and y'know... Target cafe's hot dog quality ain't the greatest. I had one once before, last year, and I remember telling myself "never again, that was too awful"

But I was so hungry, I had the shakes, and it was free food so I got one.
It even looked ill, it had red speckles on it and shit. But I ate it anyways. It made me stop shaking and despite it tasting shit like usual, I felt my energy come back for the next few hours at least.
Then surprise, surprise, I got sick several hours later. Every food poisoning symptom lol
I got through the worst of it, like once I got the food out of my system I just had dehydration and acid reflux kicking my butt. My job let me delay my schedule the next day since I still wanted to work (aka get paid, I have hour cuts coming up soon)

But now, today I'm so fatigued, I can hardly climb my stairs D': I already slept for like, 12 hours and can barely stay awake.
I don't have time to be sickkkkk I have so much to do before graduation still!

nb4: no, its not covid! my friend also got sick since he ate a hot dog from the same batch that day too. symptoms are not covid

I also like, cold turkey cut out caffeine so that might be where a lot of this fatigue is from.
aha
I may.. have been relying on an overdose of that lately. Figured my body would heal more efficiently if I took a break tho :vanora_cry:

@vitreus:
There's just something about floating in chill water
Aside from obviously cooling off, it just feels clean and muscles are fully relaxing and just.. ugh I want xd

@vitreus:
They are these indoor pools fit for a single person. They make the water dense with salts or something, so you can float without effort.
just kinda meant to relax all your senses and its just you and your thoughts

might not be for everyone, but for someone as busy as I've been, it kinda sounds nice to just pause

Check if you have one in any spas near you! They're not very uncommon I think :D

@totalanimefan:
Oh no, that sounds awful! Mine was pretty painful in my guts and burnt my esophagus pretty badly (acid vomit, I swear), but once I got it out of my system, I just had acid reflux and malnutrition slapping me around for the last like.. 48 hours lmao
Today I'm feeling MUCH better. Still mildly fatigued and unmotivated, but my esophagus feels like it healed and my acid reflux symptoms went away.

I got it worse than my friend did, so at least he didn't get the meanest hotdog of the bunch xD
That or he downplayed it.

Hoping work doesn't kick your butt today like it did yesterday. (haha literally) But make sure to keep hydrated! The worst that can happen from food poisoning is dehydration. Best wishes to your guts and head.
