i look and feel like death

i've just been in the bathroom 'for an extended period of time' - my stomach and guts are not my friends right now. so on top of being ill all day feeling shitty cos of my head, being dizzy, tired, sick et al, now my guts have kicked off. i cant call in sick cos the boss is on holiday, one of the seniors is ill with tonsillitis and flu and another bookseller fell at work the other month and hasn't come back yet. another senior keeps calling in sick cos shes pregnant and i'll bet the Dep.M still has a cold. so if i call in sick, i'll be in the doghouse. but if i feel like this at 6am, i'm so not off to work.

i look like shit. complete and utter. under my eyes have gone a fetching greeny blacky bruise color, and the rest of my skin is a sickly affair. ugh

oh and the boyfriend wont call the doctor. even tho his cough is getting worse and causing him headaches and to be off work...
