Gives You Hell

Good morning internet and how are we all on this lovely Friday morning? Me, I’m hopped up to my eyeballs on painkillers and floating nicely. I can barely move my jaw, can only just talk, my entire side of face is swollen. It’s a classy look. I’m surprised I don’t have a black eye!

I’ve had to call into work sick due to the whole… not being able to move my mouth to talk thing. Well, I rang to ask if I could spend the day on AQs and was told no, so

The last of my financial aid application paperwork came today – another few trees killed for that. Guess I know how I’ll be spending my Saturday. What fun!

I have however managed to find a local dentist that is taking on NHS patients and registered with them. I have an appointment on June 24th. Gives me a nice month or so to stress the fuck out over it! Not fun.

That’s about it from the land of llama.I’m not quite sure what I’ve managed to do to this layout though. Think I’m gonna have to spend a little time fixing that up. *sigh* When really, all I want to do is to curl up and read. I’ve found myself in love with Poppy Z Brite’s books again. Still. Yeah. I’ve just read The Value Of X and picked up Liquor. Oh, and ordered Prime for when I’ve finished that. Will order Soul Kitchen when I get paid too so I can carry on reading the series.
So. Much. Love.

A week before Concon and what happens? I get sick. I’ve had a stinking cold for about a week now and it’s been pinging my asthma since the weekend. Monday I had to call in work sick because I had a temperature, every cell in my body ached etc. Drove in to work yesterday, then drove home again before I even started, went straight down the doctors. Breathing was working so long as I wasn’t doing anything else at the same time, such as y’know, walking or talking.

Saw Dr Harper (no, not Owen) who diagnosed me with an Upper Respiratory Tract Infection. He also gave me many drugs. I have antibiotics for the infection (which are starting to kick in). I have steroids for my asthma (which are starting to kick in) and I’m on mega-doses of my inhalers to keep them calm from the spasming of the airwaves.

I’m glad, however, I’m sick this week and not next. Because that would suck uber donkey balls. This week has so far been spent in bed reading the Percy Jackson series of books. Monchichi told me about them and I went straight to the internets, found and downloaded e-books. I’ve already read the first 3 and and half way through the 4th
So. Much. Love.

Now, however, I’ve finished doing today’s downloading so will be curling up to watch White Collar, NCIS, NCIS LA and Melrose Place before continuing to watch The Forgotten.
