In sickness and in more sickness
The mystery is solved. I know why I’m feeling so sick (although I need to confirm with a doctor on Monday). I have mono.
Yes, mono. I’m not 19, I’m not in a dorm, but somehow I got it[1]. It feels utterly absurd. At least, looking online, by the time classes start up again I should be almost done with this fatigue thing.
And I feel much less guilty about doing almost nothing, and falling asleep as I do it.
[1] I wonder if I’ve had the virus floating around in my system and the stress of the summer brought on the symptoms. Though I don’t then know how I didn’t get it in February.

Ugh, how awful. I hope you recuperate before classes begin.
