I have dentist at 1p -- dentist buddies, yay? Yeah, not so much.
Five whole days of work ahead, what?
I think I have pleurisy, which sounds so old fashioned but really is just inflamed tissue around the ol' lungs, which, I probably ended up with bronchitis even though I never went to the doc, so... that would track. I finally caved and sent a note to the doc, because it is uncomfortable to the point that I didn't get much sleep last night, and I can't take NSAIDs, and Tylenol is like fake medicine to me. She's probably going to make me go in. Fair enough.

Pleurisy sucks, man. If you can't take NSAIDs, I see steroids in your future.
Ah, steroids. That makes sense. Blergh.
Thanks for the updates, ND. Holding you both close in my heart.
Pleurisy, boo, JenP. I hope they find something that helps and quickly.
I have 3-day weekends now, but that’s because we are working 4 10-hr days. This weekend I was pretty much out of commission due to pain and fatigue for Friday and Saturday. I did manage to get some stuff done yesterday, but I’m not keeping up with life, let alone catching up on all the stuff I am behind on.
And really, I need to probably find more hours somewhere to bring more money in, but I don’t know how that’s going to work if I spend two days recovering. Last week wasn’t even a full week because of NYD.
Twas ever thus. May it not always be so.
Pleurisy sucks.
I was very happy at 730am when I begrudgingly went to log into work and found out the meeting I was logging in for was canceled. Sadly I still had meetings from 8am until now and do not want to do any more work.
Jen, I feel like the dentist AND pleurisy is one thing too many.
Pleurisy sounds very un-fun, except of course for the
Glass Menagerie
"blue roses" reference. Probably much less entertaining if you're the one who has to actually experience it.
Pix & ND, still sending thoughts and prayers (hate that that now sounds like a snark rather than an actual hope and wish for strength & peace & better times ahead).
-t, that sounds like a crappy celebration. I hope the cocktails at least were good.
It's been too long since I've posted for a full meara, but I have been reading along and sending best wishes all this time.

Right? I am not used to this. Next week is 4 again and then I'm ruined for the rest of the year.
Jen, I feel like the dentist AND pleurisy is one thing too many.
Agreed!
I hope the cocktails at least were good.
Honestly, not really. Me and my coworker who also tried them thought they could use a dash of Sprite or something. Pretty, though.
Had two meetings this morning and thought I was done but there's another one in 5 minutes. Whee!
Five whole days of work ahead, what?
