Weekly simming 20/2018
May. 20th, 2018 09:35 pmNo progress this week, so have a bit of real life instead.
As it happens, I'm once again sick. Started feeling slightly off on Monday, thought it was nothing and Tuesday evening I had fever. Headed straight to occupational healthcare on Wednesday (my workplace allows up to three days' sick leave just by letting one's boss know), as this is the fifth time within the year and I wanted to know what's up. The doctor said it was a flu virus, and it's apparently still normal to have five to six of those in a year. (A horrifying thought: if this is still normal, then there are probably folks who get this every year. That must suck so hard.) Things like changing jobs and moving to a new town tend to affect this stuff too: new town, new viruses.
This one's a weird bug. I might feel fine for hours at the time, and then bam, I'm suddenly all stuffy and slimy. I haven't really been feeling tired at least in the daytime, so all the more guilt for not being at work, as unreasonable as it is. I'm still getting stuffy as evening comes, and at least earlier today I had a bit of temperature, so back to occupational health it is tomorrow. Sigh. I was hoping I'd be healthy and get to go to work but it doesn't look great on that front.
So to sit still and not get any more of an overdose of Agatha Christie, I've been playing Don't Starve Together (by myself). I kind of feel like I'm overdosed on that too after five days, but I do have probably my best game ever going on, albeit with easier settings than default. Simming stuff takes the kind of concentration that I don't have right now, so a game I can just play is what I need here. I'll return to simming once I'm healthy again, though I may have to unhook myself from DST first.
Here's hoping I'd be back up and running sometime next week, with simming and otherwise. I'm pretty sick of being sick!
