Calling in sick

So, for the first time even, I called in sick today. Granted, I do have a contageous virus, that causes extreme stomach discomfort and high fever. I am taking Cipro, you know, that medicine people went all crazy when they had the Anthrax scare.

So, I think chris had it, and he passed it to my sister, that passed to me, and we passed to our mom, because she's been taking care of us.

Anywho, calling in sick was weird, my boss understood, but it was still weird. The last time I went to work with symptoms like this, I had to leave within one hour. Moving around, and standing makes one feel worse. Besides, I had fun fever delirium. While waiting for my meds, I was singing brazilian kids song on the car. I also had weird dreams, and hummed constantly. Not to mention the pacing, and random spouts about things that don't make sense. Granted, it was fun, and I laughed a bunch.

Ohh, and this past night, I tought my pillows were big architectural marvels. Yes, they were made of this intricate patterns of metal. Yet, they were fluffy, and I was hugging them. I had some other weird dreams, and they were all wild and adventurous. Mom had weird dreams too, and that was interesting to hear. The only side effect of the delirium, is the annoying shaking, and the feeling of shifting hot and cold. That's the not so fun part. Ohh, and you become hyper sensitive to light, and touch.

I was taking a shower, and I could feel the bristles of the sponge, very intenselly. Shaving was even worse. I could feel all the little hairs being cut, and blade just hurt, and hurt.

I dont' really want to make my coworkers sick, because if they get sick, then I get more and more stuff to do. So, I will probably will come back on Saturday only, granted I have a doctor's excuse until Sunday.
