Breakdown…go ahead and give it to me…

It has been a rough past 2 weeks. I’ve been sick…and when I’m sick…I’m really sick. I have not taken off a day of work for an illness since April, 2007…2 years ago. I’m one of those people that just deals with sickness really well…and I hate it when people complain because they are sick but refuse to see a doctor. Last week…I took 2 days off…on my second day off…I called the doc…he called in a Zpack and cough medicine for me. Neither worked. The Codeine in the couch syrup was pretty nice though. I wake up today and I literally feel like I got hit in the head with a puck coming from Gonchar’s slapshot. I called the doc and went in to see him. I’m glad the diagnosis was just a very severe sinus infection…which he put me on a stronger antibiotic. I’m praying this works. I swear…I have never felt so weak and helpless from an illness. I hate being weak. I don’t deal well with it…which is why I had my episode today.
It’s just my luck to get all of the difficult clients on the phone when I’m not myself and can’t handle it. One or two here and there are fine…but literally every single fricking client I talked to was a pain in my ass. The healthy me…I can handle that no problem, but when I’m sitting there either with my sunglasses on or covering my eyes because my head is throbbing so hard it hurts my eyeballs to look at light…that becomes a problem. This has been going on all week…I don’t think I had one client this week that was just an “ok” client. I finally lost it today. I started bawling at work. I don’t do that shit. That’s when Mik says to me…”Come on…we’re going to lunch.” Ok sure. We hopped in the car and listened to some Clarks.
I’m still not quite sure why I started to randomly bawl. It could be all the stress that has been building up for the past few months and this pain in the ass bug I have is just bringing everything out. I know I’ve been needing a good cry all week, I did shed a few tears last night too. I knew I was going to…I was on my way home and I felt the tears coming on…so I call up someone pretty special to me just to say hi…it always makes me smile to hear his voice…but then I think after I hung up…I shed the few tears because I realized how much I miss him. I do feel better now that I finally cried today. I feel like I got a lot out. My head is still pounding and my eyeballs are throbbing…but I don’t feel so weak anymore, and I certainly don’t need to do anymore crying. Though it probably would help to clear up my sinuses…
This sickness needs to go away…because it is consuming me. I’m normally the person that takes care of people…and I actually feel right now that I need someone here. Not to wait on me hand and foot…but just someone to have for company…and maybe a few hugs.
