thursday

first the good news: i got some things accomplished - last night i'd managed to load the dishwasher, so today i unloaded it. (now i have to load it again).... i took out the garbage.... and did a quickee scrub of the toilet, only because a worse lookin' toilet i ne'er did see....

the bad news: despite finishing my course of medication last night, i feel sick as ever. i've easily visited the washroom 15-20 times today, and the day is only half over. i feel crampy, weak, and totally wrung out. i need to put some food in my stomach, but i am doing the leaning-tower thing, and think i'll be visiting my mattress for a while first.

and when it really hits hard, i'm just curled up in bed wishing this *whatever it is* would hurry up and run it's course and either get better or kill me. just.... no more. i tired.


you are never more lonely than when you are sick... and alone.


*UPDATE*: after i realized i was nauseous and buckling over in pain from a different kind of cramping *cough*, i took 2 extra strength ibuprofen gel caps, and i feel better. still making frequent trips to the loo, but much more clear headed, and able to be up for somewhat longer periods of time. i actually got some laundry in, too! :) .... waitin' on some (runny) oatmeal for dindin, see how well that goes down....!
