The Collapse of the Immune System : A Poetic Retelling

Hey Bloog. I mean that extra "o".

I haven't updated for a long time but it's because, if you could not judge from the title, my immune system, which for the past 5 years has been like a solid fortress of healthiness and power, has fallen from these graces it once bestowed.

I first became very ill Monday and then did something on Tuesday that I had not done in a very long time, called off of work due to my death-like state. They were understanding as I had looked and acted much like a zombie all Monday anyways. Wednesday I tried to go to work but they said NO and made me go to the doctor. Doctor was useless, gave me some vague diagnosis and random medicine to take which I am not taking because I'm quite sure she did not listen to anything I said. Thursday and Friday were a lot better, but still was not feeling like my usual magnificent self. Friday night I was finally feeling normal, Saturday night realized I had obtained cold from boyfriend after my small cough started increasing in it's frequency and strength. Jason thought I had a fever. I probably did. Today I feel really good mentally but physically my throat is starting to hurt and my nose is getting runny and I keep sneezing. He claims this cold only lasts a few days but we have to take in account that my entire immune system has seemingly went on strike.

I have even been drinking orange juice! That usually always saves me! Oh well. So, that's what's up, interwebs.
