I used to brag all the time that I "never get sick". Obviously it's not "never", but I really do rarely get sick. The few times that I do, it is relatively short-lived, and I'm nearly dead by the time I get over it. This time seemed like it would be like the former. Okay, my throat hurts. I'm kinda losing my voice, but that's happened before. Oh, my head kinda hurts too...what, I have a fever? How bad is it? 37.4?! Wait, check again...okay, 36.5, that's not too bad...and I'm back up to 37.9. This is new. I don't know if I ever had a fever that fluctuated like that before. It got bad enough that I felt like I had to take off from work on Saturday (one of the busiest and longest days of the week for me, next to Thursdays). It was probably my first time actually calling in sick. The only other time I had to make arrangements to take off work was when I was trying to get my driver's license, and the only available time and day to take it made it impossible to do without taking the day off.
So I took the Saturday off, tried resting as much as I could. Thought I had somewhat recovered on Sunday, only to discover, nope, not at all. Sunday night I slept horribly, tried to rest some more on Monday. Okay, now I am feeling better...wait, nope, still feeling like a sack of trash. But Tuesday I had to work. I thought I could do it, I thought I could survive the day...but then I end up calling in sick again (rather, they suggested I take another day off. They really are so thoughtful. Plus I'm sure they wouldn't want me infecting anyone else, XD).This time I am in bed pretty much the whole day, save for when I had to eat or use the restroom.

Suffice to say, I'm still not 100%. Kind of better, but I don't want to say so, because I don't know if I am suddenly going to get worse. Sigh. Getting sick sucks. I'm glad it doesn't happen all that often to me.
