Mechtober Day 2: Gunfire and explosions

Sleeping Beauty is a great song but I’ve caught the plague so goodnight everyone, I’m going to sleep now.

Gotta love how I don't experience a gradual increase of symptoms when I'm sick, it just hits me all at once like a freight train

Weds 16th October

Tues Weds office days this week. Flu vaccine clinic yesterday so went down with a couple of the girls on my team and got vaccinated. And got a sticker and a lollipop for it 😎

It's one of my colleagues' 30th birthday this weekend and I stupidly took charge of organising his gifts so rushed to get some giant balloons after work and came home and made up a hamper for him.

Up early this morning to make sure I had everything ready. It was team meeting day today so it was all a bit hectic but coworker was happy with his gifts and seemed to really appreciate them. He gave me a little cuddle to thank me for organising it all so I'm really glad I did okay.

As the day has gone on I've been feeling a little yucky and my armpit is killing me! So I think it's just the flu jab kicking in. "Rested" this evening bc I felt gross and exhausted when I got home and by resting I mean I spent 2 hours browsing cars bc we are in desperate need of a second one. Sharing ours is just not sustainable. I had hoped I could lease one from work but the cheapest cars are fully electric (great but I would have to then pay more to install a charger) and fuckung huge (not great because I am very fucking small and I currently drive a very small car I am not ready to upgrade to an SUV lmao) so we're back to looking at second hand from a local dealer and tbf there are a lot of good deals around, we just need to make the time to go and test drive a couple and get it sorted bc from November Matt's schedule is getting busier and I would really like to have the new car by then if we can. So I spent most of my night babbling out loud about the pros and cons of hire purchase bc that seems to be the way we could get the newest car with the lowest mileage. If we buy outright it would be an older car that's done more miles and had more wear and tear that we will need to pay to repair. But I can already hear his parents complaining about us paying for one large investment on finance. But like who can afford to buy a car outright these days lmao

The boops have given me enough serotonin to do the laundry. Once I can fully harness this power I will be unstoppable.

hey i hate that covid is being treated like it’s no big deal now a days. if i get covid again i’m going to be hospitalized again. don’t come around me because you have covid but ‘feel okay’. when i get covid from YOU i’m not going to feel good i’m begging for once in ur life think about people other than yourself

Scene 11

You eventually gave up and turned off your visual faculties anyway. Turning them back on now, you wince at the sudden influx of light, shielding your face from the glare. Ugh. This is why you don't like doing this.

It's bright out today, the sun shining cheerfully through a thin cloud layer. You carefully climb down to the ground level again, brushing at yourself to rid your cloak of the dust it accumulated overnight. You really need to find someplace to wash your belongings, but it's less of a priority than continuing onwards.

Exiting the growing tower, you pause near the entrance of the burrow the scavengers went into last cycle, dialing up your auditory sensitivity momentarily. You don't hear anything inside; they must have already left. Or maybe they haven't woken up yet. Scavengers tend to be quiet in unfamiliar territory, you know that much, so it's hard to tell if they're still here or not. You'll need to investigate more closely to figure it out.

My throat hurts like fucking hell and it's only getting worse and I really hope it's not fucking COVID

[fauvester]

julian's got to go through a whole song and dance to get garak to get his annual flu shot. blowdarts don't work his scales are too thick they just bounce off

[thethingything]

our mum caught some kind of illness maybe a week or so ago and has been coughing this whole time and lost her voice, and we've had like, occasional symptoms that made us think we were getting ill, but overall we've been suspiciously alright and don't seem to have whatever she's caught, which is... fucking weird considering we normally catch everything anyone in the household gets.

I have just noticed though that our sinuses don't feel great and our lymph nodes are pretty swollen and tender and I can feel our throat getting sore and like... oh no. please for the love of god I need this to just be our body being weird and not us having finally caught this

[funshinebf]

ill be honest. i do love fics where a trans guy character gets their period and his partner takes care of him and pampers him. its like a sickfic but about periods. and well. i want that for me

[sevcasejay1chicago]

So, your girl has the fucking flu.

My boss is an IDIOT and KNOWS I am immuno compromised and sent me in a classroom with KNOWN flu positive cases instead of someone else and now I have the flu, no PTO, and a grandmother I have to take care of.

I’m fucking pissed. I want to quit my job and find a new one so bad, but I have no other choice but to stay at the moment.

Ughhhhh. I am so furious right now.

[lazarus-james]

getting sick is the fucking worst, holy shit.

i woke up this morning feeling as bad as i did yesterday, and then i started feeling tolerable, but i sat at my PC for like an hour and now i feel like i'm dying again.

time to lie down for the seven millionth time the past three days. i love being horizontal but the love of god i just wanna do some writing. i just wanna WRITE SOME JANACK. fuck.
