    I literally just got over something that ran through most of my house. Two roommates went to a emo show, one got confirmed COVID (his third time confirmed, but maybe his fourth. Only defense he has for those early infections is that he worked retail at the time and couldn't prevent exposure). Other roommate got something else and spread it.

    There's so much illness going around right now it's not surprising, what sucks is that I feel like it's unavoidable for me to not be exposed, even if I make choices to keep myself away from harm. Anyways, I ended up taking so much cold medicine I think it gave me a minor stomach ulcer and now it hurts to sleep except in like one position. 🙃

        I got it once, not even sure from what. May have been from work, but also it could've been from a wedding I was basically forced to go to (or else risk ire from the bride, I literally didn't want to go for so many reasons). Put me out hard. I don't want it again in the same way I don't want the flu again (I got incredibly sick in about 2011, felt like I was going to die. Honestly it hit me harder than COVID did).

        I don't know why people don't give as much a shit. Even having non-near fatal infections feels like ass beyond whatever longer term damage is done to you.
