poor bryan
i was sick a couple weeks ago, when we first got back from oregon. it's pretty uncharacteristic of me, as i'm usually very healthy. but since we moved into this house, i've been getting sick much more often. we both have been generally unwell since moving in, but twice now i've actually been sick enough to warrant time off from work.
while it did make me generally congested and sneezy and all that, that's about as bad as it got for me. but it seems now i have passed it on to bryan, about 4x worse. he says it wasn't from me, but probably something he caught from someone else, which i suppose is possible. there was that new year's party where he was sharing drinks with all sorts of other people, some of which we already knew were sick...
so anyway, now bryan is very sick. like, coughing up green stuff, sick. he's completely stuffed up and can't seem to get to sleep and when he finally does get to sleep, he stays in bed for half the day. this weekend he slept until two or three each afternoon. i knew he was sick, so i just let him sleep.
last night he didn't get to sleep until about quarter after 5 am, which means i also didn't get to sleep until about quarter after 5 am, and my alarm goes off at 6 am. :( i did get a little sleep between 11 pm and 3:30 am when he came to bed to try to sleep, but i'm still pretty tired.
he's supposed to go to the dr today to try to get some antibiotics or something. i'm bringing him home some crystal lite stuff that you mix in your water that's supposed to help boost your immune system. i've been drinking it at work, or i was before we went to oregon. i guess you can take that as either it didn't work because i still got sick, or it worked well enough to keep me from getting really sick.
in the mean time, we're pumping him full of vitamin C and fruit juice and chicken pot pies. i always hate when he gets sick, because i feel so helpless. i wish i could make it all better, but i can't. just have to watch and hope he gets better.
