I've got the flu

So, the illustrated short story is getting put on hold again.  I caught a pretty bad stomach flu and was asleep until 4 today.  Instead, here's a little free-write.

I'm sick and I'm tired.  My friend's sick and tired, too.
My stomach feels like it's ripping it in half.  His whole life feels like it's ripped in half.
I just wish I could leave my body right now.  He wishes he could leave town right now.
Everything I eat keeps coming back up.  Everything he did keeps coming back up.
I wish everything would just go back to normal.

My friend wishes it would, too.
