Sick for days
Thursday, 2月/7日 [2008年] // 35 Comments 
The headache was more than just a headache. I woke up Tuesday with a horrid flu. I got through getting dressed for work and then hit a brick wall of misery. Mike suggested I stay home instead, so I did. It then got worse, a lot worse. So I stayed home Wednesday too. I wanted to stay home today as well (seeing as I hurled this morning while getting dressed for work… ) but I didn’t want to get too far behind on my projects and I’m running out of leave hours. Sick leave should not count against you, or you should get WAY more than 5 days worth a year. Thankfully I could use my vacation time as sick leave (thankfully? Yea, sure, whatever… ) I’m working my day off (President’s day) to make back 8 hours of leave 
(at least that IS an option I can choose, I know I’m lucky.)
This has been the worst cold + flu season EVER for me. I’ve had 3 different flus already! They’ve all been different. Like this one, I actually had a fever I couldn’t shake. It would go up, then down, then back up.
Blegggggh, I feel like death 
*sad face times a million.* I’m probably ranting incoherently as well. Pardon, I’ve been delusional for days…

It sucks that the headache turned out to be more than “just” a headache. Make sure to rest well and get better
;
But I know what you mean, cold & flu filled season. During november/december I was sick 3 times, too, different stuff also! It was really bad timing cause I had exams in january…at least we are still alive, hm?

GA! Feel better sooooooooooon! Who’s rants will I read in your absence?! ;A;
The real world sucks…a lot. Hopefully you’ll get some other days off? I’m not sure how such hours are alloted ;;==
Aside, FEEL BETTER!
February 7, 2008 @ 2:32 pm
I’m so sorry you’re feeling so terrible!! Just focus on resting and taking care of yourself..
February 7, 2008 @ 3:03 pm
Hope you get better soon Jen. Drink lots of tea!
And thanks for your kind words. Classes are starting soon and I’m really excited. XD

Man I hate accrued leave. It’s such bs! I think you should have separate sick days from vacay days, yanno?
I hope you’re 100% better soon!
February 7, 2008 @ 5:40 pm
Ah hang in there Jen! I know how sucky it is to be so sick
i hope you start to feel better soon! Get lots of sleep!

Getting the flu sucks. I hope you feel better soon.
I wonder what Gregory House would think of this. Differential diagnosis?
February 7, 2008 @ 7:48 pm
Oh gosh, that sounds like my friend who missed a couple of days of school, but he’s finally back today. I hope you get better soon. It just sucks being sick and WOW! 3 different kinds of flu. That’s just crazy!! @__@ Take care!

Hope you get better soon Jen!
Argh, the flu is horrible~ I had 3 kinds of flus last year. They just kept coming and going =_=;;
One thing I gathered from that, was to make sure you’re truly better before you step out and do something. Like I would be getting better and then I’ll go out and then I’m worse off the next day .__.”
Keep warm, drink lots of fluid, sleep~ and hopefully it’ll go away soon.

I never use all my sick days at work.. I feel like I should take advantage of it but that’s so bad! Hahaha..
Hope you feel better! =D
February 8, 2008 @ 7:51 am
Aghh so that’s what hapened
I hope you get better soon!!

~hugs
FEEL BETTER. I just caught a cold and I feel like my head is going to burst.
February 8, 2008 @ 8:03 pm
Man, that sux, I guess DC is pretty crowded so it’s easier to catch flus during this season. Hope you feel better soon.
February 8, 2008 @ 10:13 pm
Poor Jen…. I truly wish that you’ll feel better soon!! This flu season has been really horrible! Both of my parents have gotten sick and it took a while for them to get better. Take care, Jen!

I hope you’re feeling much better by now — WEEKEND time. ^_______^ That does kinda suck that you won’t be getting a 3-day weekend. BUT.. like you said at least you get the option to do so that way you don’t use up so much of your sick time.
February 9, 2008 @ 3:40 pm
buuuu i hope you’re feeling better soon!!
i just got over my cold and now i’m all snivelly and gross >
February 9, 2008 @ 5:05 pm
I hope you are feeling better soon. I have been having trouble with my sinuses. Weather is up and down. Doesn’t seem to know if it is Winter or Spring. I had the flu back in January of ‘06. I was sick for days. Had a temperature of 102 and I couldn’t eat anything. I lost 12 pounds in less than a week.
February 9, 2008 @ 6:23 pm
Ughh I hate the flu.
Odaiji ni, Jen!!
February 9, 2008 @ 7:59 pm
that sucks
=______=;
I ALWAYS
get sick when there’s exams
it’s jut like it has to happen
i think my immune system has developed a bit better now against colds/flus
but
errr
i still get sick during exams
so feeling like crap while studying is probably the worst thing in the world
probably equally bad to having to work lol
February 10, 2008 @ 7:09 pm
Aww, I hope you’re feeling better by now.
Get a flu shot next year!!
February 10, 2008 @ 7:20 pm
hope you feel better soon~
February 10, 2008 @ 9:29 pm
cold virus kicking my ass too
i wish they’d make some super drug for these… they drain so much energy out of u!
February 11, 2008 @ 3:52 pm
Awww I am sorry that you’re sick! Try drinking some citrus drinks and Chinese teas, maybe it’ll make you feel better~
February 12, 2008 @ 6:31 am
Oh no, I’m so sorry to hear you’re sick. It sounds like what I had over Christmas - the fever going up and down but never away! I really hope you’re feeling better soon.
I can’t believe you have to take vacation days for sick days! That’s just not right :/
February 12, 2008 @ 4:57 pm
Ergh. The flu sucks.
February 12, 2008 @ 7:35 pm
Surfed in from another website, love the site! It’s so cute! Anyway, get well soon!
February 13, 2008 @ 1:10 am
oh noes! thats not good huh? i hope you get better soon!! drink lots of fluids~ XD
that sucks about your sick days too, hang in there!
February 13, 2008 @ 1:04 pm
Get well soon!!!
February 13, 2008 @ 4:44 pm
I really, really hope you’re getting better in the slightest!
February 14, 2008 @ 9:48 pm
Aw. Feel better soon.
You’d probably hate me but I didn’t get sick all season long. Maybe because last year I got sick in on season so no sick this time makes up for it. Drink juice and get vitamin C in you.
February 14, 2008 @ 10:57 pm
I hope you’ve been feeling better lately ;___; Happy Valentine’s Day!!!
February 15, 2008 @ 6:01 am
Oh gosh, I can’t believe I didn’t comment this! I hope you’re really better now! Ahhh, being sick is the worst feeling ever, next to um…your bunny dying or something, lol.
