Yes, officially sick. Low fever, coughing, sneezing, congestion, bitterness. No lethargy yet, just very tired. Still hungry, good thing. It seems I will be sleeping sitting up for the next few days. This in a lot of ways sucks. It would suck more if I hadn't recognized it, I suppose, and kept taking allergy meds, since that's quite a waste of time.

I'm just going to say it--if this ends up pneumonia, I have no pride. I want a TV. And lipgloss. The universe and my lungs owe me this. I can't even figure out how it started, to be honest. I testing my breathing weekly and I know three days ago there wasn't any change. Yesterday I woke up with a headache and a cough and sneezing (sneezing is good! Or so they say).

So far, just general ick. I need to find my inhaler. And here it is. Just thinking about steroids again makes my entire body rebel.

...seriously. It's been since September. It's been a year since the last time I had five doctors tell me they didn't know what was wrong with me. I do not like this. I want it to stop. I want a fucking pony.

And that ends self-pity. For now. You who are new--wow, you might want to scan for anything where I mention bodily fluids for a bit and skip. It's deeply boring.

In other news--er. I have a pretty robe to wear this time? That makes it better?

How long does an inhaler last? Is six months old too old? Does my body understand I do not have time for this?

That's why he goes bad, you know -- all the good people hit him on the head or try to shoot him and constantly mistrust him, while there's this vast cohort of minions saying, We wouldn't hurt you, Lex, and we'll give you power and greatness and oh so much sex...
Wow. That was scary. Lex is like Jesus in the desert.

Obi-Wan has a sort of desperate, pathetic patience in this movie. You can just see it in his eyes: "My padawan is a psychopath, and no one will believe me; I'm barely keeping him under control and expect to wake up any night now to find him standing over my bed with a knife!"

*eyes you* I can't believe you've gotten this competitive with me over *pneumonia.* I'll CONCEDE, FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER. DON'T DIE OKAY.

I KNOW RIGHT? SOME PEOPLE JUST TAKE IT TOO FAR!

It's kind of appalling. Man, if only I'd known her ages 15-21 where I had my worst ever bouts - I could give her a better run for her money here.

Instead I just get to have wusstastic bronchitis/sinus infection type things which is nowhere near as cool or classy as pneumonia. I stared at decongestants today for two minutes before I realized I was in a bit of a trance. Then I come back to this post and it's like she's taking everything.f

Man if she'd known me around the same time period, undiagnosed sinus infections, tonsils that tried to choke me to death, increasingly strong antibiotics each with its own set of side affects.

But no, she's gotta be all snobby and go straight to the hospital.

Her with her state health insurance. And nifty cameras down her throat.

/disgusted

I bet she gets wifi in the room and the shiny waiting areas. *sulks*

Also I have so been to that place where you stare at your row of pill bottles for three minutes because you forgot what you'd come to take.

I didn't forget necessarily, I was just trying to flash back to the differences between a decongestant and an expectorant, and what various doctors have told me to never ever take. Then I got a little sleepy. Then I realized I was still standing there and didn't want to make the investment just yet, 'cause hey, the difference between how I feel from last week and this week is so night and day so why spend money if I could just continue feeling better daily.

So I bought donuts instead! *bright smile*

OH MY GOD I WOULD LET YOU WIN OKAY?

You totally sent this over the internet. *resents* How, I have no idea.

No, I ALREADY CONCEDED.

If anyone could figure that out, it would be me. But, a small point. Wouldn't I send it to one of my varied and sundry internet enemies?

oh please, you have got to be kidding
