Remember when I was hardly posting anymore? Yeah, I bet you all miss that now. *wink*

I feel like death, but I'm either so miserably hot or so freakin' cold that I can't go to sleep. I laid down last night at 6:15am, and I was up at 8:30 in time to shower and get Jack to soccer. I thought I'd take a nap or something later today, but then I never did. I've been wondering why sleep isn't coming, and I just figured it out.

The tea.

Here I've been basically caffeine-free for months and months, and now I've had 1.25 gallons of caffeinated tea in about 24 hours. No wonder I can't settle down!

*zurg*

I'm headed to bed now, and I'm going to toss and turn until sleep finally finds me. I hope it's a decent sleep, but I'm sure I'll be up every other hour, either freezing or burning up. *sigh*

i suggest decaf tea but the sugar may also not be helping the non-sleepies...

[navygreen.livejournal.com]

Well, but I also don't want to waste this 3/4 gallon here...

[greencow.livejournal.com]

Not me, I LOVE that you're posting much more now!! Sadly I've not been showing that I'm reading by commenting, because I'm caught up in my own little world at the moment. But I am reading, and I'm so glad you're posting!

[navygreen.livejournal.com]

Aw, thanks. I know you're "out there." ;-)

[marshmelococoa.livejournal.com]

Here's hoping we both feel better soon!

LOL! No, I do not miss those days!!
Tsk, damn that tea! Sorry you're sick. :(

[navygreen.livejournal.com]

Oh, but the tea feels soooooo good going down. The sweetness of it relaxes my throat muscles.

Thats what i meant in my comment the other day.... Suddenly you have burst into overactive LJ life! ;)

[navygreen.livejournal.com]

Well, this is a bit more like my usual self. Since this past fall, I've been subdued in my writings.

[billzy.livejournal.com]

Im glad your back properly :)

It seems that I have the same thing you have! I'm definitely not a fan of being sick. ;__;

The doctor told me it's the flu - a bad case of it. She then wrote a note and INSISTED I stay home from work for a WEEK.

I guess I've never had the flu before (only the stomach flu). I really thought it was just a bad cold, and I only went to the doctor because then I feared it had turned into either an ear infection or a sinus infection (or both). Imagine my shock when she said my ears were clear! They just hurt SO. BAD. And my throat is so red and raw, and at any given point in time, I can stick my finger in my mouth and swipe blood from the roof of my mouth or the back of my throat.

This is disgusting and so awful. I've never felt so sick in my life.

I second the decaf tea, thats usually what we have here.

Years ago, I used to buy decaf. Now I hardly ever drink tea, so it hadn't occurred to me to buy a certain kind.
