So today I am sick.  And in my sickness I feel like shit.  Seriously, I hate being sick, I feel like I am too hot and too cold, dry yet wet all at the same time.  I feel a chill coming in waves over my body and I just want to get under my nice fleece sheets and stay there for a few more days…. God being sick is a bitch.

This cold/flu/hell that I have currently started with a 2 day headache… I seriously thought that my headband was on too tight… I had no clue where this killer headache came from, perhaps from staring at the computer screen too long???  No no, I wake up Thursday thinking that I felt yucky but did my usual, got ready for work, dropped the evils off at their designated places and then came into work…. Bossman listened for 5 minutes and told me to go home… In some ways this is SPECTACULAR, in others not so much…. Sick… go home!  Yay, cuz I can be sick and miserable at home…. Shitty cuz I don’t get paid sick days… I can work extra hours to earn the time back or take it out of my vacation time, but I REALLY want to go to Mexico for my birthday….

I spent the majority of 4 days in bed… if you knew me you would know that that is a shitty thing for me…. First off, I don’t like laying around cuz it hurts my back, but also, I don’t like laying around because, simply put, that is just plain lazy…. But I was determined!  I had a Halloween party to go to on Saturday night and come hell or high water, I was going to attend… and attend I did.. while sick… no drinking, was tired, but so glad I went… until the next morning when my cold/flu/hell got WORSE… how can that be!?!?!?!  I spent days in bed!  This was so not fair… so back to the sick bed for me yesterday and had to return to work today….and I feel so yucky.

On a positive note… His majesty MAY agree to foster care!!!  This is great!  I suppose having pneumonia and not knowing if he had a place to sleep struck home.  Having another asshole guy (who is now grown) tell him to agree helped for sure.. But I THINK I convinced him all by myself!  Oh, to have the ability to know every day where my kid is… that would be spectacular!
