No. And yes. It's always sudden.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

It's in the general boob area, and that same height on my back.

The doctor listened to my lungs pretty thoroughly, and her conclusion is that the pain is a muscle sprain from hauling that cat litter, but ALSO a bonus respiratory infection. Yippee. But I'm glad it's not a collapsed lung.

Thrive to spite them

Boo for sprained muscles and respiratory infection...

Yay for no collapsed lung!

We gotta start getting the smaller bag of litter instead of the 20-lb bag.

I'm glad you went to the doctor, Steph. And I hope the pulled muscle and infection clear up soon.

Weren't you saying you were bound to go down with something once you relaxed about Tim?

Did I call this into being? Why can't I control my powers???

I've been feeling like I've been fighting a cold/some kind of respiratory thing for about 3 weeks (actually longer, now that I think about it), but it's never really turned into a full-on cold, in the sense of Now I Will Kick Your Ass Go Get Nyquil. So I assumed it was really allergies.

The doctor said that no, a low-grade virus can just hang on, and I should just take it easy (and stop lifting cat litter). (Though I think the REAL solution is to get back to the gym and lift weights so that hoisting a freaking bag of cat litter over my shoulder doesn't make my muscles freak out. Sheesh, how embarrassing.)

Tim is at a meeting tonight, so I'm going to either watch crappy TV or CA:CW. Can't decide.

Steph, stress does bad things to your immune system. That, and all the assorted things you've been dealing with, probably made you less resistant. I'd say, get well and - if you have a pulled muscle - go to the gym and lift weights after you're healed.

Take care of yourself - I had a bad respiratory infection and it took about a month to stop coughing.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Oh Teppy. I was trying not to worry about you. I am so glad that you went, and that it was a thing but not a big thing. ION I'm not crying - YOU'RE crying.

Watch Civil War, unless your crappy TV has handsome men being emotionally repressed at each other as well.
