i'm having a bad case of cough and colds, yet i'm still at the office instead of resting at home.  because for me, as long as i can drive or walk, i'll report for work.  besides, i can still do my daily functions, though at a much slower pace.  plus, it's depressingly hot at home–weather-wise that is–and i've been having a hard time sleeping for the past couple of days because of it.  what's more irritating is that when i cough, a sharp, numbing pain simultaneously goes through the back of my head, rendering me motionless for a couple of seconds while the pain subsides.  it happens too whenever i blow my nose.  and my voice goes from hoarse to sickly deep every now and then.  and yet i'm still thinking of going to the gym after my shift, believing that once adrenalin starts pumping through my veins, i'll feel a lot better.  one colleage suggested that sex is a natural analgesic and that i'm lacking–severely, as she put it–that's why i'm getting sick.  well, i'm not getting any of that anytime soon, so scrub that as well.  in any case, i'm fine.  going to the gym will be a last-minute decision.  i brought my gear along just in case.  if not, well, head straight home and hopefully get some sound sleep this time.  but if you're gonna ask me, i'd rather have adrenalin pumping and getting tired after so as to be primed in going to sleep, no matter what the weather is anyday.  *sigh*  hope this goes away soon…
