Very sick.
Went to a social last night. Temperature peaked at 101.
Chills, dizzy, nausea.
With back, stomach, and colon pain.
Ugh… Don’t have time to be this sick
I purchased some Chapstick (™) for shimmeringjemmy this morning. She placed it on her bedside table. Accordingly, the cat, cute_evil knocked it off the bedside table.
She looked at me and said, “Now I know what’s been happening to it.” (This would seem to explain why the last 5-10 of these have vanished mysteriously)
In a dead pan voice I looked at her and said.
“Yes, the cat ate it.”
(I continued deadpan)
“This explains 2 things:
One… It would explain why they keep vanishing mysteriously.
Two… it would explain why she has such tender lips.”
And shimmeringjemmy convulsed with laughter.
🙂
The good,
The Girlfriend is in town visiting. More details on that will be in my S&F filter. If you’re not on the filter… see the top post on my journal page.
The bad,
A ritual I’ve been planning and orchestrating for the past month and a half has just gotten axed because the kindly old man who leases us space decided to plan furnace repair on the day we’d scheduled and notified us the day before. More on that will be posted in my OTO filter.
The ugly,
I’ve had a stomach thing for about 8 days now. It’s not fun. The nasty part is that it is now aggravating my “Guess-it-isn’t-diverticulitis” and I’m having severe pain in my colon area again. It’s getting inflamed and I’m having difficulty moving, standing, etc. It might be best that the ‘bad’ occurred for me. Assuming it doesn’t continue to get worse (it’s been getting steadily worse since it manifested Wednesday night) I have another CT scan on Monday.
My next week is FAR too busy to be sick on this level now. 🙁
I will make these other posts… but right now, I’m just trying to stay out of the bathroom for more than an hour at a time. groan
Today we went to the midwife and I learned one of two possible things.
shimmeringjemmy is either really and truly pregnant for real… or a moody Timelord who’s putting on some weight and growing hair really fast.
Either way… Um.. wow.
(Note the sound of a second heartbeat is really kinda real)
