20. I slept for 12 hours

Oct 2022

Got Covid and flu shot at the same time Monday afternoon. Got about four hours of sleep that night, because I was studying for a big exam. But four hours is fine for me.

Well! Pretty much white-knuckled it through the day. Every shot I've had has just been massive fatigue the next day and that unspecific "I don't feel well" feeling. You know. I don't have a headache, but I feel like I'm about to. I don't have a fever, but feel like it's coming. I'm not achey, but my muscles feel like they're about to be. By end of exam, there was that strong, "I want to go home, crawl under a blanket, and watch Netflix for a week," sense.

Sure enough. Finished last work call at 4:55p and was dead by 5pm. Woke up at 5am to garbage truck down the street and fled to get everything out in time.

Really good sleep, though.
