Rantings

On a scale on 1 - 10? I'm up to about a 6, but still feeling like shit. Glands are now so swollen it hurts to lay my head on the pillow and my throat is so constricted I feel like I'm choking when I lie down. I'm also getting shooting pains in my ears. Needless to say I didn't get much sleep last night. Not only that, but I now have coldsore blisters on my lower lip, and in the past coldsores and mouth ulcers have always been a sure sign that I'm run down. My immune system has been well and truly compromised and it's beginning to show. I feel exhausted.

On a brighter note, I survived the panto. Pity it was probably the worst one we've ever done. I think if anything could go wrong, it did. From the odd line being forgotten to the pyro control unit failing to work at a crucial moment, it really was awful. Still, the rather small audience seemed to enjoy it. I believe that we have a pretty full theatre for today's matinee and the final evening performance.

I just wish I didn't feel so ill. :-(
