juushika | Why do I only post daily updates when I'm sick? Congestion and a quiet house.

Today: Congestion, sleep-with-a-tissue-on-the-bedside congestion; poor sleep during a long, cold night. Also the houseguest's surgery, and so the house has been empty and/or stone silent for most of the day. I had been hoping that this was a magical, rare, clean illness, and I'm a bit disappointed to have it turn gunky, but it's still pretty moderate and honestly who the fuck cares—there's no blasting video games, no conversations in the hallway, and sometimes the dog whines because she feels abandoned and alone. It's like motherfucking Christmas over here.
