Had a strange and very un-funny night mixed with temperature falling and rising in a very disturbing manner. Also woke up at about 6-ish and sneezed violently a couple of times whereupon I felt a "tear" in my throat and a horribly tasting liquid ran down my throat.
Yep - must have had an abscess at the back of my throat that burst from the sneezing. I've had one before but then I didn't know what it was (I just knew I felt like dying) and ended up in hospital for 4 days. It's a horrible thing to have but it's good that it burst - I don't want to risk ending up in a hospital here as that would surely kill me.
Anyway, this meant I called in sick, again, and I think I won't bother having a day off sick ever again, I'll just go in and infect everyone else. They make you feel as if you're making it up and the feeling of accusation isn't the best thing when you're already weak from illness, temperature etc. I was about this close (----) to crying and admitting to be as fit as a fiddle and that I'd just made it all up because it sooo much fun having an abscess. It's also great fun feeling too weak to have a shower in fear of fainting and hitting my head and diiiie.
Listen, If I was making it up I would have had a long shower in which I would have taken the time to shave my legs but instead I'm looking like werewolf with dirty hair. I'm actually enjoying work at the moment and I really, really would have preferred not to have tasted the yucky stuff that was in the abscess. So please, please don't make me feel bad for being ill. It's not like I did it on purpose.
