Man, quit harassing people in your dreams! Your dream dude is allowed to have his droid phone!

Heheh. It's so weird the way you wake up, but feel the way you felt in the dream all day, isn't it?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Go Mal! Go poop!

Heh. And, yes. Go, Mal and poop. Poop well.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Heheh. It's so weird the way you wake up, but feel the way you felt in the dream all day, isn't it?

I hate that, and there are two that will have me wake up crying and unable to shake the misery.

1) Jon is being horrible to me, and when I tell him he's hurting me, he acts like he doesn't care.

2) I do something that hurts a friend, or some of my friends and when I apologize or try to make up for it, they're mean about it.

I know, right? I could care less about the droid phone. It's not a bad phone, from what I can see. And there is one cool app not available on iPhone. Stargazer or some such, where you hold up the phone and it tells you what constellation you are looking at. Very cool. Very not available on iPhone. And very strange dream. But to keep me awake for HOURS after. That's what pissed me off.

If only there was a way to be productive when having insomnia, that allowed for falling asleep should the fairy depart.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

My officemate has informed me that I don't understand how government works. And to explain to me how government works, he kept shouting "100 trillion unfunded mandates!" Then he wrote it on a piece of paper and circled it a bunch of times.

I am so ready for spring break.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Oh, Hil, any chance you could make "NON-craxy officemate" a condition of your next gig?

I was just thinking to myself, "Did she take the craxy officemate with her?"

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Oh my god, I'm so frustrated. (Not the printer issue this time.)

I saw the OB/GYN on Monday, and she took samples to send for lab tests. I still hadn't heard by today, so I called, and they had some of the results, but not all, because one of the tests takes a longer time to culture, so they weren't going to call until they had them all. Well, whatever, that's annoying, but since I called they gave me the results that were already in.

The HSV culture was negative, which the doctor told me had a strong chance of happening, since I had been having symptoms for probably 2 weeks before I saw her, which means that there might not have been enough virus to culture.

So the HSV diagnosis was based on the physical exam, and I believe her, but my symptoms aren't really any better yet even though I started Valtrex Monday night, so now I'm second-guessing her diagnosis, and wondering what in the hell is this [TMI for ladyparts] painful sore on my ladyparts that won't get better.

I don't know when I should be noticing any improvement now that I'm taking Valtrex, and now that the HSV culture is negative, don't know if I should keep taking it at all.

On Monday when I saw the doctor, and she told me the culture could very likely come back negative, she told me to keep taking the Valtrex even if the culture was negative. And I'm fine with that; I'll keep taking it, but -- I just want to feel better because it's really painful. And a positive HSV culture would have made me confident that this is the right treatment.

And I'm having a really hard time dealing with the diagnosis (assuming it's correct) anyway. I didn't expect it, and it's a big thing to wrap my brain around because it's NEVER going to go away. I have it forever. For goddamn EVER.

This is a really shitty week. And I can't stop crying and don't know what to do. No; I don't know what I *can* do.

Oh, balls. I called the OB/GYN just now to actually ask how long before I should notice improvement with Valtrex (I realized that would be the most efficient way to get information, instead of sitting on the couch and crying), and they're already closed for the weekend. Really? At 3:20 on a Friday?

Well, then, I guess I'll see how the next couple of days go. Woo goddamn hoo.
