Sometimes this disease can be embarrassing.

On Saturday, I was dealing with a fever and fatigue caused by my Friday night shot. I fell asleep on the couch and made us late for our afternoon appointment to sign papers on the house we're building. Then we went to have dinner with some friends that night. I was practically dozing on the couch after dinner, and my hostess thought it was because I was bored. I don't know why I felt self-conscious about saying it was the medicine, but I did. I guess I was afraid that they'd feel bad about asking me to come over when I felt less than 100%, when I had been so excited to receive their invitation.
