It's a new THING and I hate it.

 I am having some horrible symptoms. Symptoms that I recognize.

These are not bugs.

These lights are not there.

That noise came from inside my head.

These muscle spasms will not stop.

It’s that thing. That thing where the thing starts off with a high-level aura that makes me think it’s going to be a migraine, but then, without warning, turns into this thing that makes me feel like my bones are breaking and that maaaaaaaaaaaaaaybe I’m going to die from it.

It hit last night and knocked me out for about an hour. I was up again only long enough to take my medicine and go to bed. I was too sick to eat.

It’s kicking in again today. I got muscle spasms in muscle groups I didn’t know were there. And I know it’s because I’m on the heavy shift at work. We got slammed with a church con of some sort that didn’t want to pay two arms and their neighbor’s leg for everyone else’s rates, we’re down a housekeeper, my vacation (paid) is shifted off two days and I’m working those two days (paid vacation days on top of the regular pay).

I’m in excruciating pain, but, uh…I think that manekineko worked.

In all my time at that place we have never been busy this time of year.

…but I’m in too much pain to do much of anything today as far as interaction.

I’m going to work on Nano while my body lets me function.
