...bills and Christmas, I totally would have stayed home today.

I rarely get sick, but when I do, it's always hell and at the most inconvenient times!
I already know what to expect, a nasty, painful sore throat. I get this little sharp pain to begin with, then I dread the following days.
Last time I had a sore throat, I almost needed to get surgery to drain / remove my tonsils, it was the worst pain ever!

The doctor asked me my pain level, I said a 9, almost 10. She was surprised by how calm I looked because she was concerned I'd be having breathing difficulties by how swollen my tonsils were and the very little space left open to my throat.

Now, most inconvenient timing - it's the holidays! I have a work outing tonight at this fancy restaurant in town, I only hope I can enjoy my food.Then we'll be walking downtown to see the holiday light displays, doesn't help that I'm sick and it's freezing. I still have to do some shopping, especially for the holiday party I am hosting on Tuesday. >.< I'd feel terrible to cancel now.

So, here's to hoping I can kick this soon!

How's everyone else doing? I hope you're healthier than me right now and taking care of yourself if you happen to be sick.

@Fozzy: we’re all invited to this party, right?
I just had 2 days with hospital appointments and, right now, I’m freaking tired, cold and hungry. So I’m on the couch, with a dog on my lap and Christmas cookies in hand reach.

@Tuijp: Of course! I'll send you the deets! haha
I should be doing the same, my boss has been telling me to stay home, but I refuse. xD

@Selaphi: I hope not. I've had it in the past and it's horrible. V_V

@Fozzy: great! I’ll bring a cat or 2!
I’m exhausted of those 2 days and I didn’t get much sleep last night.
But do we have to knock you out before you take sick leave?

@Tuijp: Oh wonderful! My little Prince could use some friends, even though he is a brat, he usually gets along with other cats. :)
Yeah, I feel like if I stayed home anyway, I'd feel miserable, so why not feel miserable and make money?
Someone might have to if I'm still sick in a week and still coming in to work. xD

I get two paid outings next week for food... Can't really complain as they're free but I don't super like being in social confines with my coworkers lol. Some of them are less than desirable to speak to for extended amounts of time. Thankfully they usually stick to theirselves and I can just do my own thing and eat.

@Tuijp: Well my oven has got like 4 layers where you can put stuff so I think we can do it.

I don't have the counter space for 4 pizzas to be coming out of the oven at the same time.

@fozzy: I was going to be very parental about the values of personal rest and taking care of one's self.
It was going to be quite the speech. There could have been tears.
Then I realized "Wait... I have been cleaning mold out of my basement for two days unprotected."

....Well, then.

HI, I'M A BAD EXAMPLE 8DDDDD

Scoot over. This plague party is going to be pretty huge. XD
hopefully not, though!

Seriously, though. I hope you feel better, man. Being sick sucks.
