Life. Don't Talk to Me About Life.

[allyndra]

So, I went to the doctor today. I got extremely pissy about the fact that he kept talking to me about weight loss, instead of, oh I don't know ... the fact that my cough frightens small children and household pets and my chest gurgles when I breathe. I was like, "Gee, nothing in society has ever prepared me for the knowledge that being overweight is bad. Thanks." Anyhow, he couldn't tell what's wrong with me. Best guesses are bronchitis, pneumonia, or Valley Fever. I had chest x-rays and bloodwork, and he gave me anti-biotics and cough medicine in the meantime. The high powered, codeine cough syrup. *is drugged*

I got to work in time to put in a half-day. Or so I thought. I had time to check my voicemail and email, and then promptly got a call that my son was suspended from school for fighting. I just don't understand why he doesn't get that he cannot hit people. CANNOT HIT PEOPLE. It's not like we're violent at home. *shakes head* But I wound up putting in about 20 minutes of work today.

Ooh, on a happy note, though, THANK YOU to everyone who wished me Happy Birthday, and to entrenous88 for my e-card. It brightened my day. I did spring_with_xan on my brithday; you can check out my Comic Book!Xander icons here and my little gen fic "Three People No One Expected Xander to Keep in Touch With" here.

ETA: I heard from the doctor, and it turns out, I have pneumonia and bronchitis. I'm an overachiever like that.

And also, I forgot to mention that the icon choice is in celebration of the fact that Luke and Noah kissed yesterday. FINALLY. There was intense yay-ness.

Glad you liked the card!

That's so frustrating, with the doctor. I just think, how is that productive, when you've so clearly come in about not only another situation, but an urgent situation? *shakes head*

But ack, pneumonia and bronchitis! Wow! I hope you're going to be able to get some rest and recover from this double-whammy.

Are you okay? Because I havent seen you in a week. Are you feeling all right?

Hi! I'm sorry for worrying you. I've been just a mess. I've been sleeping like crazy, both from just feeling crappy and from the cough medicine that knocks me out but doesn't seem to do much for the actual cough. I had a follow up appointment scheduled for this afternoon, but the doctor cancelled, which really sucks. If I'm not feeling way better by tomorrow, I'm getting another doctor.

I just can't stay up to chat at night, but I'll try to get on in the afternoon. I've missed you!

Oh jeez, I totally missed this. Hope you're feeling better! Your subject line made me grin.

I am feeling better now. I've still got a cough, but my life has stopped revolving around it, if that makes sense.

Your subject line made me grin. *g* Marvin is my hero.
