Two loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong days

[oneirophrenia]

Great. Didn't get any sleep again last night--fucking acid reflux kept me up all night. Nothing quite like throwing up in your sleep tojar you out of rest. I ate an entire bottle of Tums and a handful of Pepcid and, finally, after like six hours it settled down. Still ended up with less than two hours sleep, though, c'ause then I had to get up to go be at the dr's office by ten. GOOD NEWS: All the kidney stone/uti problems I'd been having a month or two ago are officially gone, daddy, gone! Nothing in the universe is quite as tiring, though, as sitting in a dr's office in those stiff-ass chairs for five hours while they ask you to piss a river into a dixie cup to make sure you're not whizzing out sand. heh

Now i've gpotta go to work. We've been hideously busy as the newspaper this week, and i know tonight's going to be on of those neverending nights because, for some reason, half our usual staff hasn't been showing up and guess who get to take care of all the overflow work?

wheh I get home tonight, I'm eating a handful of benadryl to be DAMN SURE i pas sout good and thoroughly, and i"m gonna sleep for fifteen hours, I swear.

And I thought I was having it rough with all my ailments this week....

I nevber seem to have to deal with just one thing at a time--it's gotta be two or three at a time...and tat just wrecks me. Fortunately, there's nothing MAJOR wrong here, and for that I'm gratefl. My health is actually really good, according to my doctor--I just desperately need rest, that's all.

Well, then we can make it a *themed weekend* of nothing but R&R... how is that =)

It is ON! That sounds absolutely idyllic to me.

"whizzing out sand..."

Yea. I think that's why I'm still in some minor pain that is taking a while to heal over. I have internal scratches just like I did two years ago....
DAMMIT. TITANIUM URINARY TRACTS, WHEN WILL MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY PROGRESS?

I had those for a *bit* when I had the Big Kidney Stone at age 15...but, fortunately, since then I haven't been troubled by any internal scarring in the wangular region.

Unfortunately, from having pneumonia back in 1997, my *trachea* is covered in scratches and scars--which is why I'm always coughing. I'll gladly take coughing over screaming-every-time-I-whizz any day, though.

We were sooooooooooo built by the lowest bidder, weren't we?
