Monday
So far so good. Got up a little to late and went to my workplace. There I got a machine which I utterly failed to install. Except the wonky installation and a little itch in my right eye everything seemed fine.

Tuesday
Since last silvester when I managed to run an little branch into my right eye it sometimes is dry and hurts a little when I wake up. This morning my eye was big like tabletennis ball and red like a fresh wound. Skipped all planned things-to-do and went to the doc who subscribed a eye-paste and told me to stay away from screens and written stuff until it gets better. (No, she meant my eye, also you might have a point there.) As I was there I told her of some other things that are bothering me. Her only answer to all my questions was: “Well you should find yourself a specialist and bother him. Look on up in the phonebook.” Skipped training.

Wednesday
Eye was still a pain in the head. This day went by and was very blurred while doing so.

Thursday
Condition had improved so much that Squee and me took sp up on his breakfast offer. While Squee had to leave somewhen in the afternoon I stayed till eight. We didn’t talk as much as we use to do but then we where both sick bastardos.

Friday
Health was nearly restored at that point. Spent the day cleaning up my room and playing a game that sp recommended to me the other day. Skipped training, cause what hurts most are sudden eye movements.

Saturday
Skipped training. In the afternoon Squee joined us and we cooked some delicious vegetables with peanutsauce and rice. The we went to the midBro for a game of Settlers of Catan. When playing board games I sometimes get to emotional when totally loosing or nearly winning. Read a rant about it in this post. We also had some fun with Robs Accessoires^TM.

The real fun part came with the night. As I tried to sleep I felt somehow dizzy. I really can’t describe it exactly. I could breath but it was as if somehow I would suffocate. It also felt like I would pass out when I not concentrating. This feeling was accompanied by hefty nausea. I really panicked and called for the doc, at that point it was 4:28. The doc, who came two hours later, was slightly spooky. Imgaine Kiefer Sutherland playing a doc who doesn’t sleep enough, has to much cocaine, only lives at night at from time to time laughs maniacally at his unsuspecting patients. He complimented my healthy pulse and told me that I probably need to drink more and had to much fatty food and unhealthy stuff the day before. Which might be true cause I had not only the meal, but also some fried haloumi, half a bottle of wine, some coffe and three cigarettes, but I’d really would have liked him to give some kind of magical pill. Squee staid awake the night and by simply being there was the best help I could imagine. And I could barely stop her doing the dishes while waiting for the doc. Thank you, Squee!

Sunday
Finally fell aslepp around 7am. Woke up at eleven and spent the day scared by the night before playing computer games* to distract me. Unluckily I didn’t feel fit enought to join Squee and the other for a session where pics from a photographer who was at the last verstrahlt where showed. What I really didn’t understood was my colleague from work which called to ask if I could work. We’re only three people who do the job and that colleague hat to work ar another job (in the same editorial office) and the other was about to leave town. We agreed on a makeshift site for that day, but he wanted me do it despite being sick. He didn’t mind the overtime but thought that the bosses would think our job is redundant when he would do both jobs. I tried to convince him that an emergency solution is what it is bo matter who did it, but he wouldn’t see it that way. Luckily our 3rd colleague agreed to do it before leaving. I dearly hope the next week gets better.

_{*I started playing Incubation per Mail with the Outsider. Maybe the vampire can/wants to join us?}
