Mono + flu and that's not all? No wonder you're wiped out! I like how your PCP looks out for you, vw.
I would be there right now.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

vw, you must just be beyond exhausted.

I had mono as an adult, too, when I was 28. Not fun at all. Prepare to sleep a lot for the next few months and be unusually prone to sore throats for the next few years.
But you'll get better. I started having symptoms in July or August, was diagnosed in September, and IIRC I bounced back to normal energy levels around January. And it's not that I got sicker more often with the sore throat thing--I got my normal amount of colds/flu, but they all featured sore throats.

Oh, I've had it before, actually...when I was 19. Of course, it was mixed with the viral encephalitis, so hopefully the recovery won't be *that* bad.
And I can't imagine me sleeping much more than I already do. But, now that I've said that...

Now tagless for your comfort.
Cashmere, you know there's probably an up side to Liv fitting into the cat carrier - it's one way to know where she is and what she's doing. (Need a larger, Owen-sized one?)
Tempting. VERY tempting. I carried Liv out of the school kicking today because she wanted to stay with Owen and I really wished I had the cat carrier for that.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
As if the LA-istas weren't enough of a reason to want to visit LA, now I find out that LA has Lucha VaVoom.
Luchadores!
Striptease!
Luchadores in lizard outfits! And gold lame chicken outfits! Hot nurse wrestler chicks!
Striptease while pogo-ing on a pogo-stick horse! t edit (This is a guy stripping, woo-hoo!)
Striptease while hula-hooping! t edit (And so is this, though in a gender-bending way.)
Okay, some of the strippers are, in fact, women.
Dang, man. I gotta get out there for a visit.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Poor bug. Get well soon if at all possible.
