I'm not feeling so good and there's no one to whine to at home so...

Been feeling hot all morning. Bit sick and dizzy around 11 but a bit better now. Keep getting the shivers. Would like to curl up right here and go to sleep but I've got to be back at work in half an hour. I suspect it's a combination of it being an obscenely hot day, the fact that I finished taking the hormone pills a few days ago and torture will shortly be upon me again and possibly even tiredness, although I've slept like the dead these past two nights - oh, blessed darkness! Tonight, I will not go snowboarding. Tonight I will drag a blanket downstairs and curl up in front of the TV. Parents are abroad, sister will be spending the evening with her Useless Fiance. Home alone. Bliss.

(Despite wanting to whine to someone, I am the sort of person who prefers to be left alone when I'm not feeling well. I don't like "being looked after". So I'm more than happy to have an empty house.)

Oh no! You can't beg off work? If you're feverish (and chills count as fever), it sounds like you're better off not going in. Especially if it might be contagious, which hey, you never know: it might be.

(I'm the same when not feeling well. Husband has wisely learnt to keep his distance, appearing rarely and then only to ask if I need a cold cloth for the forehead or somesuch. But it IS helpful to be able to bewail one's condition :-)

No, I'm ok-ish. The pains started up this afternoon (treating me gently so far, so I can't really complain) which told me that it was definitely what I half-suspected. It's just a nice miserable combination of hormones and an excessively hot office. I don't like the heat at the best of times but at certain times my internal thermostat just switches off. Many's the time I've sat shivering in summer and sweating in winter while other people stare at me like I'm a monster. (Socks and boots really don't help in this weather, I must admit)
