I would like for my lungs to remain in my body

Still sick. Even more so than yesterday, where I was still outside and on campus. I spent today in bed, pending between being asleep, being out of breath, coughing my lungs up, watching crappy daytime TV and reading fanfic.
Nice mixture if you ask me.
I did manage to watch Gossip Girl and Leverage (some notes on that maybe with the SPN review).

Anyway, being sick always has some strange effects on me. I either dream strange things or I develop strange food cravings or I get nostalgic all of a sudden.
It's the later two this time.
This monring I remembered that I still had some fresh grapefruit lying around, so I decided some vitamine C wouldn't hurt and ate them.
I couldn't stop eating and actually ate all three that I had left.
Now I am craving grapefruit juice because it actually helps with the throat burn.

As for the getting nostalgic thing, well I am not all that frequent on Last.fm but I couldn't resist today (with being too dizzy at times to read properly or what TV, music was just the right thing).
So I have been listening to Gary Barlow non-stop for the past two hours.
I have those CDs lying around under my bed somewhere and I haven't listened to them in ages.
I forgot how much I love "Open Road".
It' so strange to think back and realise that I grew up with his songs (either with Take That or his solo projects).

***
The good thing about being sick is that I actually get enough sleep again.
And sleeping keeps me from thinking too much about the future and about the thesis I am not working on because I am sick or about the job I am still not having.
So I think I can say I am rested but dizzy. It's strange feeling that way, it has been a while since I was that sick.
I had colds and stuff a lot lately but none of them was that tough.

***
The thing is that while lying in bed listening to music or watching TV I get the strangest plot bunies... or that might be due to the cough meds.
Still no real Big Bang idea though.
Not to mention that I didn't get to work on the "In & Out" fic.
*sighs*

Last but not least:
Hello to the new people in my flist.
Hope you'll have fun around here.
*waves and hands out cookies*

oooo, you poor thing.

*sends your boys, sheep, and orange juice*

Feel better soon hun-and while you've got all those strange plot bunnies write them down. They might not be feasible when you're better, but at least you'll get a good laugh out of them.

(((hugs)))

Blergh. Being sick sucks! I hope you'll feel better soon.
Finally getting enough sleep is good, though. Shame you had to get sick for that.

Get well soon! Throat burn is one of the meanest things about colds.

And: hello to you, too. *munches cookie*

you're supposed to be getting better, not staying sick. awwwww.

Although I did lol at your food cravings. Can't believe you actually feel like eating when you're sick. I just look at food and go "no thank you"

Get better soon. I mean it this time!
