I have so much to blog about things that I have done and places that I have been to since last week. Apparently, halfway thru' the flu bug got me.

From what supposedly to be a 2D 1N stay @ Kakak's place, I ended up staying there for a good 4D 3N!!! Holiday to no where. More like a hibernation getaway. Fever strucked me on Tues nite and early on Wednesday morning my temperature was at it's highest. I think kalau ada thermometer to take my temperature, it should have been somewhere between 38 to 40 degrees. Bahang semacam and I was breaking out in cold sweat at one moment and the next I'll be shivering like as if I was in Northpole,naked!

Thank god Abg Tofik was around and he alerted Kakak. So while waiting for Kakak to return from work, Abg Tofik nursed me. Stayed by my side, attended to my needs, feed me and make sure I took my medication (at this point was just panadols and cough syrup) on time. He sponged me with ice wrapped with cloth to bring the temperature down. I couldn't care about anything except to sleep. It was THE ONLY thing I could do.

By evening, Abg Tofik decided to call it quits as my condition wasn't improving at all and brought me to the nearby clinic. Fever check - 37.7 degrees. Not so high but still there. Doc looked at me like as if I was already half dead..barely there. Muka pucat lesu. I was given 6 types of medication to take. Bleargh. So much for just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down... more like coming out ada lah!

And yes, did I say that despite being so lembik, I tried getting up to do myself a bowl of Nestum Cereal to eat so that I can take my medicine. It turned out to be...well, pretty salty. Abg Tofik muka sampai cramp and yes, it was the first laughter I let out after much whinings and groaning in pain. In the midst of preparing the nestum, I always liked to put in some sugar and condensed milk and mix it up. So I thought I saw a packet of sugar that labelled as "Fine Sugar" and I happily put in 2 tablespooons of it into my bowl of nestum.

Kesian Abg Tofik jadik mangsa. Coz he offered to feed me and so he did a testing of the nestum first to make sure its not too hot for me and instantaneously he nearly puked out and went rushing to the kitchen to grab a glass of water. Then when he returned to the room, he laughed and there I was on the bed, staring blankly into his face. "Naper Dee??" I asked. "Manis sangat ke? atau panas?" I added. Abg Tofik smiled and giggled and told me to taste the nestum myself. I took a bit on the spoon and the minute my tongue touched it..."MakkKkkKk!!! MASIN NYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!" The so called packet of "Fine Sugar" actually turned out to be "Fine Salt"!! Thanks eh. Don't blame me. I was sick. Sick people aren't suppose to prepare food for themselves. Macam nie lah jadik nye.

Conclusion? Abg Tofik discarded that bowl of Nestum I made and said that he will make a fresh one for me. So yeah, I laid still in bed in agony and in pain and my world went round and round coz the fever heat was draining my brain energy... while waiting for my bowl of nestum to be ready. This time, its tastes alot better...

Then again, here I am sitting in the office.. working since 9am and will end at 8.30pm. I just hope that I can pull thru' coz the fever is still gone completely and I am not spared from the giddy spells too. The monster migrane is not helping either. So yeah... till I recover 101%, this shall be my last blog... at least for the moment. Hopefully, by next week, I be back. This time with full steam ahead.... mintak mintak updates yang lepas lepas blom basi lah eh. Dan mintak mintak jugak, otak nie nyer function masih bleh pakai. Mana tahu demam panas dah kasi otak ku ni overhaul, terpaksa reboot.
Susah datang la macam nie.....
