001. palm trees swaying in the wind.

hmm, what to put here? today has been a rather uneventful day i'm afraid and the forecast doesn't look good for the rest of the weekend.

i'm at home, still in my pyjamas with freshly washed hair scraped carelessly on top of my head and i'm not wearing a scap of make up. it feels refreshing to be this bare, naked and exposed.
what doesn't feel as refreshing however is the fact that i'm suffering with cold shivers, hotter flushes, aching joints, creaking bones and period pain. why oh why did my body decide to throw in that little surprise knowing fine well we're not completely over being worked to the bone is beyond me.

rang The Boss earlier (well, i say Boss he's really a temp manager but still) and informed him i wouldn't be coming in tonight. he sounded neither sympathetic nor irked which i took as a good sign, promptly hung up the phone and crawled miserably back under my duvet with the full intention of enjoying, what would of been, a full weekend off for once until i promptly remembered i'm at work first thing tomorrow. groan.

it would now seem my extra strength pain killers are kicking in as my hands and feet have comfortably numb and my head is feeling slightly drunk. now we sit here and wait for the nausea...
