I never update my blog, I lose interest I guess. I'm bored and to put it simply I am sick. The symptoms began sometime tuesday and have since progressed into the death of Zack. Wednesday at work I had a really sore throat, coughing up nasty stuff and a running nose. About two hours into my shift while walking to the break room I began to experience a dizzy spell. I would be walking and it felt like I lost vision and it picked up 5 feet ahead of me...not cool. So during my break of resting my head on a filthy lunch table all I could think was "please stop the room from spinning". Back in the restaurant kitchen my co-worker/chef de partie looks at me and asks if I'm alright. My response is a no, but I claim I will survive and send him on his lunch break. I'm feeling like ass at this moment, I'm dizzy, stumbly and coughing like a bastard. I try drinking some tea to sooth my throat but it doesn't seem to have any effect. My CDP comes back and finds me keeled over on the line and forces me to sit down in the back. I had no intentions of going home early due to illness, but the restaurant manager had other ideas. Im sat down in the office and told to stay, manager tells me I should go home and Im no longer arguing against it. Both the manager and my sous chef offer me a taxi voucher if I felt I could not drive home, I did drive as dizzy as I was.
So since that night I've been in bed hugging my pillows. sleepless nights along with nightmares. I have a headache that won't go away and I dont want to eat anything, it hurts my stomach. At this moment I may call in sick tomorrow....I would be carving tomorrow night and I dont think guests would appreciate me coughing all over their food. I hate being sick, I try to lie to myself that I'm not sick...but I am definately sick today. Boourns
