Here's the Deal

posted by mihow on June 22nd, 2005

I’m sick again. It’s the fourth time this year. I always thought I had a strong immune system. I am finding that’s a load of crap.

Tonight, Toby Joe and I were to begin taking pottery classes at the Mudpit I, however, feel like I spent two days at the rear of an old diesel truck, sucking on its exhaust pipe. Naked. In the snow. Uphill. That said, after a year off, I will have to postpone my first day back as a potter. I’ll stop by and let them know I’m not flakey. I’ll meet everyone and find out what wheel I’m on. But I just can’t stay conscious for too much longer.

Tomorrow, I’m off to the doctor to find out what on earth is wrong with me. We still don’t have insurance. I am paying out-of-pocket. That pretty much sums up how badly I feel.

Finally, I’m annoyed with myself lately. (Again.) All I want to do is be cynical and spit like a pack mule, or are camels the spitters? Either way.

I don’t care.

Right now, it’s 5:30 and I’m killing time until I have to meet the husband at the ass end of the L Train.

Right now, the ass end of everything is where I belong.

    Kim, I know. It’s really unbelievable, isn’t it? I know a lot of people without insurance right now. It’s really sad. But we’ll have it soon. In fact, we’re BOTH going to sign on using BOTH jobs. :]

    I had a summmer like that not to long ago. I had these recurring bouts with strep, and sinus crap. Turns out I had tonsillitis. After several months of urgent care nightmares, I finally got into see an ENT. 3 weeks later I’m in the worst pain of my life from having those nasty bitches carved out. It was all worth it!!! No more sickie!

    FEEL BETTER SOON!!!
