Snug as a Bug in a Rug

Well... not really actually.
More like Sick in Bed...

I am freezing at the moment.... My fingers are soo cold, i'm surprised that I can even type!!

Woke up at 3/4 last night with stomach cramps. these persisted till the morning. So I called in sick. Thank goodness that I did!

Have now spent the most part of today just lying in bed, trying to watch High Fidelity on DVD (but fell asleep for most of it), tried to also do some reading of my bible and other literature, but again with little success.

So instead spent the morning lying in bed in the fetal position, listening to music/talkback radio and dozing.

Cramps have stopped now, thank goodness!! but now tummy has progressed onto the queasy stage. not really wanting to hold anything down

went to make myself something to eat for lunch. wanted some Quaker Oats or something plain like that, but found we'd run out of milk in the fridge. Plus, I couldn't find the Panadol in the pantry. My flatmate must've taken it and not restocked it...

Grrrrrr.....

so i had to walk down to burwood Plaza to buy some milk, dry biccies, panadol and some apple juice.

it's such a nice day outside!! but i couldn't enjoy an ounce of it!! cos i'm starting to get a fever, my body started to quickly boil up.. making the short 5 min walk to the shops most uncomfortable

if i were in the sun, i was boiling, in the shade, i was freezing!!
:(

but made it home without too much drama, and with much grit and determination...

kept thinking to myself all the way home "don't be a wuss, or a nancy boy" show to yourself that u have a higher pain threshold.... Be a Man!! :P

now am trying to be snug like a bug in a rug under my awesome goose down quilt... waiting for the paracetamol to take effect while munching on Malt 'O' Milk biccies... :)

hope this doesn't last long...
was so looking forward to going climbing tomorrow night...
but i dun see that happening at this rate. :(
