Sick day

Turns out the equinox that we had wasn't too unbearably hot as it rained in the evening, which was good. But there was haze, which was bad, and which gave me this flu. Day before last, I was sneezing loudly in the office, and my colleagues were saying, "Tsunami, tsunami..." or "germs, germs" in that double-repetitive way Malaysians like to use for emphasis. So my boss said I'd better take an MC on Friday, which I did diligently. Haha.

But I couldn't sleep much on Thursday night, cos I had such an awful sore throat, and so I got out of bed around 6 am anyway, crept up to my parents' room to look for Strepsils. Yes, I still live with my parents. When I found out the box of strepsils contained only one lousy lozenge, I decided, when the sun comes up, I'm going to the clinic! So I waited. Had some breakfast, then I drove out at 7.30 am.

I've spent one whole day sleeping yesterday, but I'm still sick. I'm really disappointed with my anti-bodies. I take one spoonful of Scott's Emulsion per day and for what?? But getting sick is good, to cleanse your sins... buang dosa-dosa kecil...
