The flu, it sucks so much

[DaFunkyUnit]

I woke up last Friday morning with the aches & pains and tiredness, so stayed home. Oh man, Friday night and saturday night were just brutal, fevers, chills, delirium, you name it. But on Monday morning, the delirium and tiredness subsided, and I'm somewhat more alert now. Yay, I thought, it means I probably back in to 100% by Tuesday. Nope. Today is Tuesday, now, I have a very serious cough and along with it major migraines, the kind where it feels like pins are poked from inside your head. But what sucks is that it occurs everytime when I cough. ARRGHH make it stop!!!

should i cancel all plans for the rest of the week and R&R? I already had to ditch plans last weekend, felt really bad doing so, but 2 weekends in a row? Does it take this long to recover from the flu? I think this is the first time I've had the flu as an adult, and man, its certainly not like when you were a kid. Its more like a hangover.... but 1000x worst.

anyways, thanks for all the *motherly* advice. all i got from my mom was "TAKE SOME 'TUSSIN'!" (not really, but something like that....)

Hope you get better soon. Usually takes me about a week to get over those types of symptoms. Just remember the liquids.
