fever – The Diary of The Deranged Writer

30-Minute Warning XXXI

Hello, Diary. It has been a while, and I missed 2 blogging days this week – this Wednesday and Friday. Let me explain my short absence.

The past few days have been rough for me physically. Remember the last time I blogged here; I said I didn’t get a fever even if I was expecting to? Well, the day after I posted that, I got a fever and my coughing and itchy throat became worse. Overall I officially got the flu. But thanks to plenty of rest and water, Koolfever, and Bioflu, I got better slowly.

As soon as I was cured of my fever and coughing, I joined my parents and cousin May in grocery shopping. I joined because I had a feeling I would see some 4-packs of Jack and Coke Zero in the store. And when we arrived and I checked the alcohol section, I was right – there were lots of Jack and Coke Zero. So I took 2 4-packs. Thank goodness.

After coming home from grocery shopping, I was told by my family to get some rest. Yes, I don’t have a fever anymore and I’m not coughing like hell, but I’m not 100% well physically. But before I got my rest, I had to work a bit. Good thing I don’t have that much on my workload, so I finished work early.

Anyway, I’m 100% well now and celebrating it by having an ice-cold Jack and Coke Zero while typing this post. I deserve this cool beverage.

And that’s it. That’s about it. Happy weekend!

So, how am I today?

Today, I feel much better. I don’t have the flu anymore – no more fever and body ache. I can go upstairs and downstairs a bit faster again. I’m back to eating well and on time. And I can go back to work soon.

What else? Well, I had a problem sleeping last night. I woke up 3 times because I had a hard time breathing. My Mother noticed, so she applied some Vicks VapoRub to my chest. I also inhaled the ointment for good measure, and I was able to sleep properly after that. Thank you, Mother. I love you.

And… that’s it. That’s about it.
