Chinese Monkey Flu
HOLY MOSES!
Im back everyone! Sorry for the long wait for the latest blob, but i havent had a chance to do much internetting because i was sick! SUPER SICK!
A few weeks ago I was out with mum doing a spot of shopping when it started to get dark and wet. I valiantly gave mum my jacket so she wouldnt get cold or moist from the rains that were pouring down.
There was a bit of a walk to the car so mum and i walked really quickly, but i missed a step and splashed myself in a puddle. I was soaking wet! Not only that but as we were walking past some people, a really old man walked past me and SNEEZED INTO MY YAWNING MOUTH! AND I SWALLOWED! EW!
Well, needless to say, i had to get Mum to dry land so we rushed to the car and she drove us both home into the warming glow of the faux-fireplace. Its so deliciously warm.
I fell asleep like a kitty under the heater and when i woke up, i was feverish and sweaty. My throat was starting to get sore and my head was feeling all woozy!
Mum said that i should be ok but that i should spend the day in bed. Anything longer and i become “a drain to the rest of hard working society”.
I dont quite remember much of what happened for that first week, but Mum said that that night, she came upstairs to check on me and found that i was in my underwear singing a song from the 1970s (“Rain” by Dragon is what Rick thinks) to my stuffed aligator with my pyjamas on my head!
She said that i was really bad and sweating a lot and that she eventually took me to the hospital after 3 days of wearing socks on my ears and shoes on my hands and nothing else!
The doctor diagnosed me as having Chinese Monkey Flu and that i shouldnt make trips to Asia in my spare time. Mum was apparently so mad at me for going to Asia without her permission, but i dont really recall if i ever have!
I stayed in hospital for about more days until i was released as the fever was breaking, but they needed the bed for a lady with a splinter in her foot which is fair enough in my books.
Mum said that she fed me plenty of fluids and even made chicken soup made from fishbones and shredded lettuce! SO DELICIOUS. I think. I wasnt very coherent still.
The first thing i really do remember is feeling all wet and sticky in bed at the middle of the night. Unfortunately, i needed to clean the sheets and wipe down the plastic undersheet. Its a good thing i still have that there or mum would have been so mad at me!
So im now back in the saddle again, hopefully bringing you more love than ever before! Im off to a Tony and Rico lesson. ITS TIME FOR ROMANCE IN CLASS!
Well, Romantic acting! LOSTL!
