Getting better and better
Today I'm getting better and better, eventhough not totally 100% back to normal (I still have cough, stuffy nose & that sexy Bass voice). I started my antibiotic yesterday, which was good.
It all started last Tuesday, I had sore throat and a little bit of fever, which I took care of by taking over-the-counter cold medicine. I couldn't call in sick, so I had to drag myself to work for the rest of the week because we had deadline for the month end closing. The sad part, Didi got sick too because of me. He called in sick last Friday.
Then on the weekend my body fell apart. Everything seemed got worse. We just rested and stayed home on Friday, Saturday, Sunday. What a wasted weekend. We hate it!
We missed Novi’s invitation for Sunday afternoon snack (she made Siomay….bikin lagi doong say…:-0), and we missed Karlina-Alvin’s birthday dinner at Buca di Beppo.
Even after all those resting days, I still had my cold on Monday and finally I called in sick. I didn’t go to the doctor, and still hope just by resting I could get better. However, that was not the case, I couldn’t sleep because I was coughing pretty bad, and I decided to take sleeping pill.
Even when I came to work on Tuesday, I was not doing well at all, I could barely open eyes. Still couldn’t go to the doctor, because my doctor left early that day. It should had been me who left early doctor, not you! I asked him to give me prescription for antibiotic over the phone, but he wouldn’t do that. I begged him to give me 1 day supply, and finally he did. Well hopefully with stronger medication, I’d be a little better. I left work around 3 pm.
The next day (Wednesday) I was back again at work, I was still sick, and definitely I needed to see my doctor. So I left my office around 4.15 pm and be standby patients, which was suck. He didn’t see me until 6.45 pm. Aarrrghhh.
Basically what can I do now is just rest and take the medicines. And hopefully we’ll get better soon. We don't really have plan to do this weekend. Didi has to come to work for a few hours tomorrow, and I probably go to Indonesian Day Committe meeting at Wisma Indonesia.
Allright everybody, have a great weekend and stay dry! (base on our weather forecast it will be raining for a few days)

Ruthyyy... gw mengikuti jejak elo nih... ikutan sakit hihihi... payah deh ah.. kirain gue cukup kuat menghindar dari virus2 yg bertebaran akibat pergantian cuaca di sini... tak tahunya.. jum'at dan sabtu gue terkapar di rumah deh.. ga bisa ke mana2. Hari ini mendingan, walaupun tenggorokan masih sakit. Mo makan antibiotik sih, tp lagi kepingin ngurangin asupan obat nih.. jd dicoba cara alami duluw *istirahat* =P
