My eyes! The goggles do nothing

Last weekend started on a good note. I went out to eat with some coworkers on Friday night and had a good time. One of my coworkers may have been interested in me, but it was hard to tell for sure since I didn't see him for long, and he's not one of the people I normally interact with at work.

Saturday night was when things started to go bad. After a productive workout, I started to get a sore throat. The next day, I couldn't swallow much, but I was feeling a bit better Monday morning and was fine by that afternoon.

I should have known I wasn't really better since I still had a sniffle and didn't push myself as hard as I should have at the gym on Monday or Tuesday.

This afternoon, my eyes started feeling funny. I left about a half-hour later when my eyes became watery, bloodshot, and leaked some mucus. Turns out, the sore throat migrated to around my eyes, and briefly to my right ear.

Some good came out of this since I was able to get more of the classic Transformers Minicons when I picked up my prescriptions, and watch more of the New Dr. Who on DVD.

I'm kinda losing track, but aren't you getting sick a *lot* lately? Is there something else up...like, heaven forbid, something like mold in your apartment or whatnot? x.x

Then again, you know me, I'm not used to people having that little thing this time of year called Inclement Weather.

I have been getting sick a lot more often than usual. Normally I get a cold once or twice a year, and that's it.

My apartment's in a new building, so mold shouldn't be a factor. The best I can think of is that I've been pushing myself too hard or I picked up something from a coworker.

Eye mucous? Ewwww. I hope you're alright now. what antibiotics/medicine did you get?

I've been sick for like a month now. So fucking annoying. This time of year sucks for getting sick.

After having very poor vision for a day, I'm basically fine now, and got put on Vigamox and Omnicef.

You've been sick too? And it's probably interfered with getting back to the gym like you wanted.
