There is nothing worse than being sick with the flu.
It’s the most uncomfortable situation you can possibly be in, if you ask me.
I have been desperately trying to avoid getting sick the entire winter time season, however, with all of my co-workers and peers dropping left and right, it was obvious that I was not going to escape the same fate. Sure enough, last monthI finally got sick. I was coughing and sneezing, my stomach was churning all day and night, and my internal temperature was fluctuating wildly between sizzling and cold. I properly shook and shivered, punctuated by covered in sweat and needing to take a frosty shower… Clearly, I wasn’t going to be able to go into work for a while, and my fever needed to slowly die out at home, but unluckyly, this meant that I was living at the mercy of my central heating, cooling, and ventilation system. If you have not experienced it before, it’s quite difficult to be bedridden and have unexpected sizzling and frosty temperature changes all day long… When you cannot absolutely get up to adjust the temperature control, life can get pretty miserable. My internal temperature control was going haywire, and my only source of comfort was to continually adjust the central heating and cooling system up or down. Time and time again, I pulled myself out of bed and hobbled down the hallway to the central temperature controlling device. I absolutely put my heating system and air conditioning system through their paces. After this flu and the afternoons I missed from work, I am not happy to receive my energy bill in the mail this month.
