Not good today. I've been alternately shivering inside two hoodies and a duvet, and sweating buckets in a t-shirt. When I woke up this morning my eyes were aching like anything whenever I tried to move them, now they have dancing black specks and constant light after images. My head hurts and my back hurts and I'm coughing up small life forms, and I'm unable to properly indulge in any of this being sick malarkey because I screwed something up at work and even though my head of department is being thoroughly wonderful about it I'm fretting like anything. This job scares me shitless because I love it so thoroughly; any possibility of screwing it up is terrifying.

:/

Today is full of DNW.

Woman, you are burning yourself out. Don't feel guilty for nursing yourself back to health, because the more you struggle through it without recuperating, the less good you are doing yourself and the job you love.

Focus on getting yourself better. That's an order, lady.

:) thanks. I'm pretty sure the temperature is contributing to the flailing, but rationalisations are difficult when you're ill.

Take care of yourself, please *hugs*

Look, we have so many different things to do in our line of work that most people who have been at it for a while KNOW how overwhelmed one can get. You say yourself that your head of department is being wonderful, chances are s/he remembers what it was like the first year and understands, and it's not as bad as you think it may be.

If you're sick, take some time to heal before you go back, okay? Just... try to take care of yourself. *hugs muchly*

Oh NOES. That's... not really an okay way to feel and still attempt work. You should be snuggled up somewhere with duvets and hot tea and someone petting you on the head and giving you hugs. *snuggles*
