Ugh

Came down with the flu on Thursday (to be accurate I started feeling off Wednesday evening but at first I thought it was just exhaustion or something and I could just sleep it off...but then it kept getting WORSE since Thursday morning) and had to sort of pause three different experiments so I can go home and be feverish and nauseated with saltines and Nyquil. Fever broke on Friday though and I graduated to jello, and then when that stayed down, soup. Had to drag my exhausted self to store for more saltine though and nearly had a melt-down out of exhaustion when I couldn't find them (seriously WHY do stores insist on switching things around?). Still a bit sniffly and slight coughing today despite of being dosed with the cough-suppressant version of Nyquil and Dayquil (am experience enough to know that when I get sick there's over 75% chance I'll end up hacking for months unless I do something early on about it) but otherwise functional, so am going to go and be an functional adult with chores and stuff (and move back to my normal diet! Exciting!) so I can go into lab tomorrow and start catching up on experiments, which will be stressful on so many levels that I'm actually trying not to think about it too much because, well, I've had enough nausea for this month, thanks.

Just checked the weather and realized that after bouncing from 90F to 60F the past week we're heading for 88F on Monday. And then it starts to drop again but I'm not sure how FAR it will drop so ...am just going to hold on to my thicker jackets for now and eat a lot of oranges.
