Another (Sick) Day, Another Trigger
Sep. 25th, 2014 06:36 pmI've discovered a new trigger - illness. If I'm sick, that means most of my physical and mental resources are going towards combating whatever bug I've caught. I'm also not exercising and I'm isolated from people, and I'm probably stress eating. I've had hints of this before. This time, 100% of the symptoms are bone-weary fatigue.
OK. Knowing that means I'm halfway to avoiding it/dealing with it in the future. I'll take that little victory. Can I not be sick anymore now?
Not sure how I got this recent bug. Nobody else has been reporting a fatigue/fever illness without the usual gastrointestinal or nasal symptoms. I've been joking that my trip to the zoo on Monday included the Rocky Mountain Tick exhibit.
Aw well. Writing could make it worse, so I'm going to watch TV for the rest of the night and hope I have enough energy to go to work tomorrow.
