Being Sick Is No Fun

SHIP'S LOG:

     I guess it is not supposed to be fun but somehow it should be less a drag than it is. I actually thought that I was on the downward slope of this latest cold/flu/plague but it seems not to be the case. The fever, which I thought had left, is making a return visit this morning. It is one of those "fun" visits where it feels like everything above my eyebrows has disappeared. It is a very interesting sensation, yet a little unnerving at the same time.  And as tired as I feel and probably am, the thought of going back to bed is both appealing and unappealing at the same time. I spent the last few days crashed in bed and there is just no restful position I can assume there. I would just toss and turn and not get any rest at all, let alone any sleep.  But being vertical is not better as I long to lay down and all I want to do is sleep. Ah, the problems of a case of the plague/flu/common cold and I didn't even get a real bad one.I wonder if I can fall asleep standing up?
