Day Fifty Six: Sick Day

nrrrgggh

If there's anything I enjoy less than being a statistic, it would be being in a lot of pain. I managed through to about 1pm when it occurred to me that I wasn't going to do anything other than sit at my desk and be miserable all afternoon, so I may as well do that in my bed instead.

It was mildly more tolerable once I got home. I feel like I'm wasting my off time by not tidying my room, mostly because I struggle with the concept of being physically incapacitated. Rest and recovery? What now?

Reminder to self: I can tidy my room tomorrow. Or Sunday. Who cares. It was definitely time for a nap this afternoon.







Fitness: Hell no. The worst thing about all of this is actually becoming physically uncoordinated. Like my mind misjudges every movement I attempt to make. I can't even play computer games as my perception becomes too skewed.

Aikido: No training

Derby: No skating

Diet: Banana cake, tea, a biscuit, part of a mammoth sandwich before my body shut down. When I got up around 7pm I had noodles, dumplings and some eggs for dinner. Then I found a stray muesli bar on the floor - double bonus. Don't have to find a home for it tomorrow when I tidy.

Sleep: I felt fine again this morning when I got up. When I got back home around 2pm I curled back up into bed to sleep through the worst of feeling like I'd been hit by a sack of bricks. Napped from around 3pm till 6pm interspersed with some cartoons. Just gone 12.30am now, I want to make a move on Thursday as I have the day off (how convenient) so will need to try and get some real sleep soon. I'm hoping the napping won't have thrown me out too much as I have a lot to get through tomorrow...



Still so much to look forward to. Probably would have felt much better about today if I knew where my pain killers were and had eaten about twenty of them. Ah well, sick leave has to be used somehow, this seems good enough.
