I Once Thought I Had Mono for an Entire Year. It Turned Out I Was Just Really Bored

Naturally being constantly very fatigued leads to some pretty impressive mood swings. Nothing as bad as it sounds, just the normal ups and downs you get when you're super tired. One minute you're laughing so hard you're crying, next minute you're frustrated about you don't even know what. That said, I'm making a list of positive things about mono to make the mood UP:

1) Creamies and chocolate pudding
2) Down 5 pounds in a week? Not my favorite method, but I have no complaints about the result
3) As mentioned above, those moments when you do laugh so hard you cry
4) Sleeping 9 hours without meds
5) Visits from family, daily texts from Mama, and her gift of endless popsicles, juice magazines, and flowers
6) Getting to read, watch movies, or play video games all day and not being considered lazy
7) 1-2 weeks of not driving through the awful Utah County I-15 construction
8) No one cares or blames me if I wear sweats or glasses or don't bother doing my hair
9) I have something to blame when I say something stupid
