i am so incredibly ill, with what is either a very bad cold or a fully blown bout of flu. I’ve got it all - the shakes, the fevers, the cough, the sore throat. I’m weak and tired and pissed that all this has happened over Christmas. My boyfriend is also ill, and at one point he was worryingly so. I haven’t been able to sleep, so instead i’ve been staying up to keep an eye on him, resulting in a 6am phonecall to NHS Direct yesterday because I was really quite scared about his worsening condition. He’s gone back to work today because he can’t really afford any more time off, and i’m alone with my own worsening condition. I’m usually quite good with being alone and I enjoy having time to myself but right now I just feel so bored and being alone is really getting to me. So I’m bringing my tumblr back from the dead to occupy myself :)
