fred and chris, redux

Whoever the anonymous person was who called pneumonia a few days back has won! The prize is personal satisfaction. As of Monday, I have pneumonia, which I'll be honest actually surprised me, as both my experiences with it were fairly traumatic, involving ambulances and three day hospitalization and once, a catheter. Apparently, it does not always herald itself with trauma and the ER. Who knew? But in case I felt comfortable or something, I was told this could change at any minute, so that was a cheerful conversation.

I guess I'm most weirded out by the fact I don't have (many) breathing problems other than when fits of coughing take precedence, which granted is a lot. However, as my future is steroids and antibiotics again--zpack is a joy and a delight forever--I am not against this per se.

In other news, I'm still absorbing Teen Wolf's last ep and trying for coherence. As what. The. Fuck. Dude, this show. It has to be the compressed timeline that I'm not used to that's screwing with me, because wow.

Congratulations

Get used to being weirdly sick for year or so. I, and others I polled, caught everything coming down the pike after a parent's death. Didn't matter how healthy we were before. It really sucks, but if you expect it, it's easier to catch at the beginning.

I've decided it's a reverse soap opera. Soap operas took one hour of plot and stretched it to ten. This takes ten hours of plot and wedges it into one.

feel better xo

Ack. Damn pneumonia.

Teen Wolf has pretty much blown my mind.

Whoops, that was me as the "anonymous person"...forgot I hadn't signed into LJ when I posted. Can't say I take a lot of personal satisfaction in your having pneumonia, but I'm happy you've been diagnosed and are getting treatment!!!

Sorry that you have pneumonia. Have you named it yet? Feel better!
