Meditations on having been unwell

[gothwalk]

I feel irritable about the week just past; the flu was bad enough and persistent enough that I had to go to the doctor on Wednesday, and get a prescription and a cert keeping me out of work until Monday. I still have some aches and pains, but can lay claim to "better" at this stage. However, I feel I've wasted the time - either it could have better spent in work, or it could have been better spent at home, but I wasn't up to spending any time usefully. And yet I seem to have exhausted a week's leisure pursuits, leaving me with nothing to do this evening - or nothing I'm interested in - and a vague grouch and grump feeling. Bah to it all.
