this weekend drained me. i dont know. friday was spent with a mild headache and the itchings of congestion. i remember telling my dad on friday that i had a feeling id wake up on saturday sick out of my mind. and here i am, recovering from that sickness. i had two nights of terrible night sweats, some insomnia, and a weird dullness in my sense of taste. a rapid swab test is telling me i dont have covid though, and after a few days of being sick ive started to feel better. ill be fine...
i manage to somehow get sick every late fall for the past few years. its as if my body decides to just give up at this time. last november i had the worst fever and night sweats. the october before that i had a stomach flu that had me lose 8 kilos in a week. ever since ive started becoming an actual functioning adult, it feels like these illnesses hit harder and harder. maybe its just that my body has started to loosen from all the pressure these last four months. i talked alot about being burnt out, and now that things are coming to a close, it feels as though my body has taken it as a sign to go through the phase of winding down, which must involve some form of debilitating short term illness.
my cats have pretty much left me alone during this period, which ive grown okay with, but i miss having them sleep with me when they were little. now that theyve grown all they want to do is sleep with my dad (who doesnt feed them mind you). not to mention i have been feeding myself webtoons and youtube reels to cure my boredom, i have regressed. i even ended up watching a two hour video on liziqi, wild stuff to be honest, thank you youtube commentators. i used to watch her back in 2017 but to hear the reason why she wasent online was due to getting scammed made me so sad. i hope i get to see a new video from her one day.
thankfully, being sick allowed me to get some really good sleep on saturday night. i think i clocked something like 14 hours. after being unable to sleep friday night, sleeping that long is not that special, but lord did i feel like a new person after sleeping that long. its crazy what neocitron, metamizole, and a magnesium tablet does to calm you.
i dont even care about getting sick in the end. i was most disappointed when i couldnt find the nerve to finish my steps yesterday though. i had an almost forty day consecutive streak of fifteen thousand steps a day on average, and now thats all gone. by the time i got up to the cafe on sunday i had no strength to prolong my walk home to reach my steps. it sucks, but i dont plan on letting this small hiccup break my walking habits.
tommorrow is another long day. i just need to survive until next wednesday...
