Exploding Head Syndrome

Yup, listening to The Cure (and pun totally intended). Unbelievably, I'm on sick leave. AGAIN! This time it's because I caught some sort of Romanian flu bug from my bf's cousin. He got sick while in Romania and I thought it wouldn't be that bad and I'd be safe. Yeah right. It was really fun having him here but after he left with my bf to visit some other relatives I got sick. I went to work the day after they left and it was perfectly normal, but that night my throat got sore and I was feeling a bit under the weather. I thought I'd be okay in the morning. Wrong. In the morning I was feeling really shitty and almost overslept but I got to work anyway, just to leave after an hour because I almost blacked out. Thank god my boss is really nice and understanding. I went straight to a nurse and got my sick leave and after that I've just spent the last three days holed up in the apartment, eating soup and watching Jane Austen movies. I really love Colin Firth as mr. Darcy, so hot. And I bought myself Tess of the D'Urbervilles as a cure, too. :D Oh god, Oliver Milburn is hot too. Damn, what is it with those guys? The sideburns? The waistcoats? The knee-length trousers with the flap closure? :D And of course Justine Waddell as Tess is so beautiful, especially in the final scenes of the movie, in the black and blue bustle dress, the hat and the veil... *sigh* The late 1800's was probably the best era of fashion.

Because I've been sick and really tired I haven't had the energy to write at all this time. Or do anything else, either. I missed two of my friends' bands, too. Now that I'm feeling better I should try. Otherwise I'll never get anything done.
