I'm TRYING not to be a typhoid Mary. Usually I get sick after I fly out for the holidays. No idea how the fuck this happened. Kat, feel free to tell me to find another place to infect stay if I haven't beaten this.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I had a weird virus that took over on Monday. I was stumbling and weaving and choking back nausea. On Tuesday I had to knock on my neighbor's door at 6am to drive me to emergency.

They admitted me, shoved in IV in my arm, and four hours later put me in a taxi and told me to get dramamine. I was out of work for three days, because I couldn't drive. It was like having all of the side-effects of a fifth of jack and none of the fun, "LEMME TELL YOU ALL WHAT I THINK ABOUT YOU!" moments. This morning it was completely gone.

Weird virus.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yikes, Allyson. Vertigo is the worst.

I had a semi-bad bout years ago, and it still comes back a little bit when I fly a lot and/or am tired and whatnot. I just feel like I'm on a boat a little bit.

Viruses of all types = no fun!

Bacteria can also be no fun!

Now I'm scared -- for most of last winter, at least one person in my department was out sick, and I definitely got my share of it.

Because books.

I just finished antibiotics about ten days ago, and I feel like shit. Totally congested, using my inhaler all the time, coughing. I think it's just permanent.

S. and I just watched the last Harry Potter, and I'm not even sure I'm done crying yet, a half hour later.

Had you seen HP7.2 before, Amy?

True bacteria is also no fun (unless it is, like in cheese).

Grace has another surgery in 3ish weeks and I'd like to keep her healthy enough for it.

My right eyebrow aches. It is so weird.

Also weird: [link] And right now, Pumpkin is making odd little noises in her sleep. As if she's eating (which given her food-whoreness, likely her dreams encompass.) And snoring. She snores. She plopped down after Lokes was asleep, he opened one eye and conked back out. She's in a kitten-passed-out state now.

keep her healthy enough for it.

Ok, go back to the clinic on tuesday fersure.
