Jan. 22nd, 2008 08:22 pmI think I can -- two litres of water later -- rule out dehydration as a cause of this headache. Also low blood sugar, since I have eaten. But I'm still really thirsty.
That leaves, let me see: virus, lack of sleep, incipient diabetes...
*ponders hypochondria*
You know, it would really have been more convenient to feel ill over the holidays. Really seriously really. And that way I wouldn't be dragging myself around wondering which parts of this general malaise are ones I can fix with water/food/sleep, and which ones are just going to hang around until they die (may it be soon).
If I could've just been rid of the headache and actually concentrate, this would've been quite a good day, though. Not too many lectures, plenty of time to study, a good result in Greek, climbing (although, alas, climbing is for people who do not sway on their feet and can walk in straight lines, so not for me today)... Oh, well. I'll just have to take tomorrow off and see if some hibernating gets me feeling properly fit in the head again. I can come in and do essay on Saturday if I really am running a slight fever.
(I do not love my next essay topic. But no can change.)
I tried to write, instead of study, you know. In case it was a study-related headache, and a change of pace for a half-hour or so would set me right. Couldn't write, either.
My, this journal's turned into whine-a-minute, hasn't it? I should shut up and talk about books already.
Except see: re: headache, concentration, lack thereof, above.
